I’m not sure if I should start with the assessment alone or the package including coaching. How do I decide?
Our Personal Strengths Insights Assessment will give you a deep insight into your character strengths, emotional intelligence and mindset. We recommend starting with the assessment on its own if you have a general interest in personal development and/or a broad question about what pathways and challenges might suit you. If you have more specific decisions to make, or a particular pathway you would like to start moving towards, we recommend combining this with coaching by choosing the package – our Personal Strengths Insights Assessment and Coaching.
