About the tool

Strengthscope® is a world-leading, online strengths assessment system that measures an individual’s work-related strengths. These are the underlying characteristics that energise a person, enabling them to achieve their best performance at work.

Understanding your individual strengths can increase your self-awareness, help to improve performance and target your development. We have a number of trained Strengthscope® Practitioners at the University. They provide a tailored debrief session to explain your individual profile and explore how to apply your strengths to meet your goals.

Types of profile

The following options are available. For each one, you will have the opportunity to meet with a Strengthscope® Practitioner for a 1:1 debrief (which will last between 60 to 90 minutes).

Standard

You'll receive individual report showing your full strengths profile, with a key focus on your significant seven strengths.

The cost for this profile is £90.

360°

You’ll receive an individual report as per the standard option, with the addition of feedback from selected stakeholders and colleagues you have nominated. The feedback you receive will look at how effectively you are using your strengths, risks to your performance and recommendations to strengthen your performance.

Team

Individual profiles are collated in order to provide a picture of strengths at a team level. This can help to identify how to make the most of strengths within a team, to improve team relationships and increase performance.
