What is Strengthscope?

Strengthscope® is a dynamic tool designed to identify and maximize your natural strengths, helping you and your team thrive. It’s all about recognizing what you do best and leveraging those strengths to achieve peak performance.

Strengthscope's® mission is to reveal the unique strengths of people across the world, enabling you to bring your most authentic and inspired selves to work and to life, every day. The Strengthscope® self-report is the first essential step on the journey to discovering and embracing your unique strengths and learning how to use them effectively.

Strengthscope® defines strengths as underlying qualities that energize you and that you are great at or have the potential to become great at. Recognized by the British Psychological Society for reliability and validity, Strengthscope® helps you to perform at your best every day and also allows you to reduce performance risks – all by developing what already exists inside of you.

The Wheel

The wheel shows all of the 24 strengths with scores rated on a standardized scale from 1-10. Scores are compared to a relevant comparison group with higher scores showing areas that energize you the most. It is more important to focus on the overall distribution of your strengths and which clusters they fall in rather than the individuals scores for each strength. Significant 7 strengths are displayed as purple bars, while others are shown as blue bars. Higher bars represent those strengths that are more natural and energizing for you, whilst the lower bars represent non-strength areas or energy drainers that will provide less energy and enjoyment in your work.

Why is Strengthscope® unique from other self-assessments?

  • Unlike other traditional personality, values or behavioral assessments, Strengthscope® is measuring what gives you energy

  • Strengthscope®’s simple, universal language enables quick interpretation and habit formation to bring the strengths approach to life everyday

  • Strengthscope® is the only strengths profile to have acquired registered test status with the British Psychological Society, meaning that it’s the most valid and reliable strengths profiling tool in the world today.
