The Communication Profile
Communication Profiles are personalized, detailed reports which accurately describe your natural
strengths, your specific talents & strengths, and
your do’s and don’ts in communicating.
Profile reports are compiled and presented
instantaneously after you complete a simple, 10-
minute online questionnaire. Results are
delivered immediately by email.
The questionnaire: The questionnaire consists
of 24 boxes. Each box contains four adjectives
we call “descriptors.” The user reads each of the
four descriptors and chooses which one
describes what he/she is most like and least like.
It’s that simple.
The profile report: Although the profile questionnaire is quick and simple to complete, it provides
sophisticated data in a 20-page report in the following sections:
Introduction: a detailed overview of the report contents.
Your Natural Strengths
o Your Natural Strengths Scales: a narrative explanation of the four scales used to
measure your natural strengths: problem solving, processing information, managing
change, and facing risk.
o Your Natural Strengths Chart: a visual picture in graph form representing your natural
strengths in the four predictable areas: problem solving, processing information,
managing change, facing risk.
o General Characteristics: a narrative summary which summarizes a broad understanding
of your strengths.
o Value to the Team: a list of specific talents and strengths that you bring to a team and/or
relationship.
Communication
o Do’s in Communicating: a checklist for others to use with you (or for you to specify to
others) that outlines action steps they can take to communicate effectively with you.
o Don’ts in Communicating: a checklist for others to use with you (or for you to specify to
others) that outlines communication methods that frustrate you or reduce your
performance.
