What's inside: 20 questions
Every question below comes with the template, in this order. After you copy it, you can reword, reorder or remove any of them.
- Your best working hours are:In the room with people — you think out loud and feed off the group · Head down, door shut, no interruptions
- You trust a plan more when it:Comes with numbers, precedents and a process that has been tested · Has a clear story about where all of this is heading
- Giving someone hard feedback, you lead with:The gap, stated plainly, then how to close it · What they did well, then the gap, carefully
- Your ideal week looks like:Planned on Monday and mostly held to · Loose enough to chase whatever matters most that day
- A brainstorm gets going. You:Need to read the notes afterwards to work out what you actually think · Are already talking — the ideas arrive as you say them
- You are at your best when the work is:Undefined — you get to invent the shape of it · Well specified — you get to execute it properly
- Two strong candidates, one seat. You pick:Whoever the team will actually thrive alongside · Whoever raises the bar for the whole team
- The scope changes mid-project. You find it:Energising — this is the interesting part · Costly — you had already sequenced everything
- New job, first week. You:Do the rounds and introduce yourself to everyone · Watch, read the room, and pick your moments
- Handed a strategy deck, you go straight to:The timeline, the numbers and who owns what · The assumptions and the second-order effects
- A decision is going to upset someone. You:Make it anyway and explain the reasoning · Look hard for a version that costs less to people
- Deadlines are:A promise — you finish with room to spare · A forcing function — your best work lands near the wire
- After a day of back-to-back meetings you feel:Wrung out — you need an hour alone before you are useful again · Wired — you would happily go for dinner with the team
- A colleague's idea sounds risky. You ask:What would have to be true for this to work? · Has anyone actually done this before?
- In a heated meeting, what you are tracking is:Who has gone quiet, and why · Which argument actually holds up
- You would rather your calendar be:Mostly open, with room to react · Mostly blocked, with everything in its slot
- You would rather resolve a tricky issue by:Getting everyone in a room and hashing it out · Writing it up properly and sending it round
- The part of a project you enjoy most:The last mile, when it finally ships clean · The blank page at the very start
- The manager you would work hardest for is:One who is sharp, fair and tells you the truth · One who has your back and knows what is going on with you
- A decision is about 80% clear. You:Decide now and adjust later · Hold it open a little longer — more will surface
The 16 possible results
Each respondent is matched to one of these result types and sees its description on their result page.
INTJ — The Systems Architect
Introversion · Intuition · Thinking · Judging You see the system behind the work, then quietly redesign it. Give you a messy domain and six months and you will hand back something with a spine — usually before anyone asked for it.
INTP — The Problem-Solver
Introversion · Intuition · Thinking · Perceiving Hand you the problem everyone else has given up on and you light up. You find the flaw in the reasoning that nobody else noticed, and you are usually right about it a quarter early.
ENTJ — The Commander
Extraversion · Intuition · Thinking · Judging You take the ambiguous thing and give it a direction, an owner and a date. Momentum follows you around because you refuse to let decisions sit. Your edge: you make the call.
ENTP — The Challenger
Extraversion · Intuition · Thinking · Perceiving You are the person who says the thing everyone was avoiding. You can find the hole in a plan in about ninety seconds, and you enjoy it far too much.
INFJ — The Quiet Visionary
Introversion · Intuition · Feeling · Judging You hold the long view and the human view at the same time, which almost nobody does. You often know where a project is going wrong months before there is evidence for it.
INFP — The Advocate
Introversion · Intuition · Feeling · Perceiving You work best on things you actually believe in — and you are almost incapable of faking it on things you do not. When the work lines up with your values, your output roughly doubles.
ENFJ — The Mentor
Extraversion · Intuition · Feeling · Judging You develop people. Careers change because you noticed what someone was good at before they did and then put them in the room where it mattered.
ENFP — The Catalyst
Extraversion · Intuition · Feeling · Perceiving You start things. You get a stalled room excited again, connect two people who should have met a year ago, and see the version of the project that nobody had imagined yet.
ISTJ — The Backbone
Introversion · Sensing · Thinking · Judging You are the reason things do not fall over. You do what you said, on the day you said it, at the quality you said — for years, without needing anyone to notice.
ISFJ — The Keeper
Introversion · Sensing · Feeling · Judging You hold the institutional memory and the quiet standards. You know why that process exists, who to ask, and which new joiner is struggling but has not said so.
ESTJ — The Operator
Extraversion · Sensing · Thinking · Judging You turn intention into operation. Roles, sequence, deadlines, accountability — you put the scaffolding in place and then hold everyone to it, politely and relentlessly. Your edge: execution.
ESFJ — The Connector
Extraversion · Sensing · Feeling · Judging You are the reason the team functions as a team. You know everyone across the org chart, you keep the information flowing, and you notice the moment morale slips. Your edge: trust at scale.
ISTP — The Troubleshooter
Introversion · Sensing · Thinking · Perceiving When something is broken and everyone is panicking, you get quieter and more useful. You go straight to the actual cause while the room is still writing status updates.
ISFP — The Craftsperson
Introversion · Sensing · Feeling · Perceiving You care how the thing turns out, in a way that is hard to fake and hard to teach. Quality, taste and the human detail all live in the same place for you. Your edge: craft.
ESTP — The Closer
Extraversion · Sensing · Thinking · Perceiving You read the room in real time and act on what you see. While the plan is still being drafted, you have already tested it on a real customer and come back with the answer.
ESFP — The Energiser
Extraversion · Sensing · Feeling · Perceiving You change the temperature of a room. Difficult weeks are survivable because you are in them, and clients and colleagues both remember how working with you felt.
