About

High-stakes management requires precise calibration between control and autonomy. This is not a personality test; it is a Situational Response Analysis. Unlike binary assessments, this tool evaluates decision-making vectors across four distinct quadrants, comparing your profile against industry benchmarks in Tech, Finance, Healthcare, and Manufacturing.

Accuracy is critical. Incongruence between a manager's self-perception and their operational reality is a primary cause of team churn. This tool utilizes a weighted vector logic to detect not just your dominant style, but your Consistency Index (adaptability vs. erraticism).

All processing is client-side. No data leaves your browser. Ideal for executive coaching, self-evaluation, and internal HR reviews.

Formulas

The scoring engine utilizes a vector addition model. Each response r carries a specific weight tensor W impacting multiple axes simultaneously.

Stotal = N∑i=1 (Wi ⋅ ri) + β

Where β represents the industry baseline adjustment. The Consistency Index (CI) is derived from the variance (σ2) of style selection across similar scenario clusters.

CI = 1 - √k∑j=1 (xj - x)2k - 1

Frequently Asked Questions

Low consistency combined with a high style score typically indicates you are theoretically aligned with a style (you want to be Democratic) but in high-pressure scenarios, you revert to instinct (Authoritative or Avoidant). The gap between intent and action causes low consistency.
The benchmarks are pre-compiled aggregated profiles based on typical behavioral patterns in specific sectors. For example, "Manufacturing" baselines higher in Authoritative traits due to safety and protocol requirements, while "Tech R&D" baselines higher in Laissez-Faire/Transformational.
Yes. The tool features a "Print-Perfect" engine. Pressing "Print Report" renders a high-resolution, monochrome version of the dashboard specifically designed for physical documents or PDF export, stripping away UI elements.
Crisis management typically demands a temporary spike in the Authoritative quadrant (Axis A) (>80%) combined with high Transformational (Axis T) communication. Democratic processes often move too slowly for crisis mitigation.
Real-world decisions have opportunity costs. Choosing to "Call a meeting" (Democratic) implicitly chooses *not* to "Decide immediately" (Authoritative). The vector weighting reflects this trade-off: gaining points in one area may slightly reduce them in opposing areas.
