The People Centric development promise
If you finish your Develop or Executive debrief without greater clarity about your Mental Toughness profile and your development priorities, we'll provide an additional 30-minute development conversation at no additional charge. This is an additional-session promise, not a money-back guarantee.
A psychometric profile becomes significantly more useful when you understand how it relates to your real-world behaviour, challenges and goals.
Your debrief isn't simply an explanation of your scores. It's a development conversation focused on what the results mean for you and what you can do with them.
Choose the development experience that's right for you.
Receive your secure assessment link and complete the online questionnaire — about 15 minutes.
Receive your personalised Mental Toughness profile and development report.
Develop and Executive customers meet privately with a qualified practitioner.
Identify practical actions that strengthen performance, leadership and personal effectiveness.
For leaders
It's tested when priorities change, results disappoint, people challenge you, difficult conversations can't be avoided, confidence is tested, decisions need to be made without perfect information — and the pressure increases.
Your Mental Toughness profile provides another lens through which to understand how you may approach these moments.
Turn insight into leadership performance

For customers who want a deeper development journey: measure, develop, re-measure.
Individual profiles tell one story. A team profile can reveal another — how your team's collective mindset influences change, challenge, pressure, goals, confidence, collaboration, setbacks and performance.
Take development further
Our Tough Minds for Tough Times programme takes Mental Toughness beyond the assessment into practical development — for individuals, teams, leadership teams and corporate programmes, face-to-face or virtual.
Mental Toughness describes aspects of how people think and approach challenge, pressure and opportunity.
MTQ is a psychometric framework designed to assess Mental Toughness and provide structured insight into areas including Control, Commitment, Challenge and Confidence. It's the assessment tool we use within our development service.
Approximately 15 minutes online.
They are related but not identical. Resilience is often associated with recovering from adversity, while Mental Toughness considers a broader mindset around challenge, confidence, control and achievement.
No. Different profiles create different strengths and development needs. The objective is self-awareness and appropriate development, not simply the highest possible score.

Yes. People Centric supports individual assessment, team profiling, facilitated interpretation, workshops and development programmes.
