Identity is a self-perception questionnaire that measures important individual differences between how people prefer to behave in a workplace setting. It was developed specifically for the world of work and is supported by robust research proving its effectiveness for use in many areas of business and personal development.

Developed to be the most comprehensive personality assessment tool, Identity measures 36 Primary Scales – which are specific areas of personality related to the world of work. It is fully validated for making sensitive selection decisions and found through scientific research to be more predictive of leadership performance than even ability tests or interviews.

Advantages of Identity  
 
Provides a wealth of useful information in a short space of time
Identity provides a great deal of useful information clearly related to work competence. It is a fast and efficient way to extrapolate information and to understand an individual’s work behaviours and preferences, without needing protracted interviews or other lengthy measures.

Objective in nature
Outputs from Identity are objective in the sense that they are obtained using a robust and valid instrument that is administered via a standardised procedure.

More accurate picture of a person
Related to the above point, the Identity model of personality has been developed rigorously using psychological knowledge. Everyday models of how people behave tend to be formed on the basis of simpler, broader interpersonal perceptions that we tend to make of people during social encounters.

Relative measurements
As Identity scores are compared with a large professional group, the measurements are relative to other people.

Related to work performance
Part of the research undertaken to justify the validity of Identity focuses on real behaviour in the workplace. This research demonstrates that the profile not only provides an accurate picture of how people behave, but also how this is related to performance, leadership style, role in a team, etc.

Fairness & Equity
Identity provides a platform for candidates to demonstrate a wider range of qualities and attributes. Some of these cannot always be measured by other means and may not be evident at interview.

Fast and Precise
Identity was developed to be one of the most versatile and comprehensive personality tools available. It provides the sharpest and most concise measurement of personality, yet still only takes 20 to 30 minutes to complete. Understanding and feedback is easier than with other questionnaires because Identity scale labels relate directly to the meaning of the scale.

Online and offline administration
Identity can be administered online or using traditional paper-and-pencil methodology.
