Take the quiz to discover how self-aware you really are! Inspired by ‘The Self-Awareness Superhighway’, this two-part quiz helps you assess your self-awareness with input from others. In Part One, rate yourself on nine CHARTABLE compass points like care, humility, and authenticity using a nine-point scale. In Part Two, invite up to three colleagues to rate you on the same criteria. After seven days, you’ll receive a report combining your self-assessment and anonymous averages from your raters. Use your results to map your self-awareness journey and decide your next steps for growth!

Join a face-to-face workshop or webinar to Discover, Explore and Grow your self-aware leadership.

The Self-Aware Leadership Compass Quiz – 9 Directions for Excellence
The Self-Awareness Compass Quiz is a tool to help you assess your own behaviour against the nine directions of the Self-Aware Leadership Compass. The nine directions, or ‘behaviours’ that are critical for you to develop and grow. It’s a tool I created to accompany my book, ‘The Self-Awareness Superhighway’. The Quiz helps you understand how you are received and perceived by others. It’s a simple but powerful way to get insights into how you impact the people around you. It combines a self-assessment with feedback from friends, family or colleagues to create a journey map. Your map will help point you in the right direction for becoming an excellent leader who strives to grow their self-awareness skills every day.
