See how your team really feels.

How it scores
A neutral answer is fifty, not sixty.
Every question is answered from 1 to 5, then stretched onto 0 to 100 so that 1 is nothing and 5 is everything. Divide by five instead and a room of shrugs would read as sixty percent, which looks like a pass mark. It is not one.
The three pulses are then weighted equally. Connection carries the same weight with two questions as the others do with three, because that is how we talk about them out loud, and because a team is not more connected simply because we asked about it less.

Why you can answer honestly
An honest answer costs the person giving it something. So here is exactly what happens to yours.
Nothing is stored against your name.
Your answers are scored in your browser. We do not run a database of who said what about their team.
Your employer never sees your row.
In a workshop the room only ever sees team totals, and never below four responses.
Your email is for your report.
We use it to send you the report. Anything beyond that only happens if you tick the box asking for it.
Read the full privacy policy. We follow the Australian Privacy Principles, and individual responses are never made available to an employer.
One person's answers are a hunch.
A room's answers are a conversation.
Take it yourself first. It costs you a minute and it tells you something. Then bring the same eight questions into a room and find out what the team would say if it were safe to say it.
