MEASURING MINDSETS IN A NEW WAY FINE GRAINED, CONTEXTUALIZED, FOCUSED ON CHANGE

There are so many tests online. DISC, Enneagram, MBTI, Management Drives, and so on and on.
Is MindSonar just another quick fix, asking you a few questions and putting you in a personality box? No. MindSonar is ‘the new profiling’.

MindSonar is fine grained, with an huge number of possible outcomes, rather than a few ‘types’. It is contextualized: measures how you think in a specific type of situation, not who you are. And it assumes that you can change, rather than presupposing you will be fixed forever.

FINE GRAINED

MindSonar measures 13 thinking style elements (Meta Programs) and 7 motivational drives (Graves Drives). This results in a fine grained analysis of someone's mindset, with thousands of possible combinations.

CONTEXTUALIZED

MindSonar assumes you will think differently in different situations. Fortunately, You have more than one mindset! We measure your mindset for a given context. Our slogan: "Because you are so much more!"

FOCUSED ON CHANGE

Old tests that measure personality assume you are the same, forever and anywhere. "An introvert can't suddenly be an extravert". We believe that you can change on all the variables we measure. If you want to.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT US

Mari Mars - was happy with what MindSonar could do, measuring the mindsets in her team
The MindSonar assessment is shockingly accurate, thanks to ... its ability to be specific to context and the goals of the person taking it ... changed our entire team’s goals and outlook ... boosted cohesiveness and connection ... setting us on a new path and launching us into a period of tremendous expansion.

Mari I. Mars
Petrichor Counseling
The tool is clear, understandable and extremely useful. It allowed us to make very fine decisions between different candidates or in one case identify that actually none of the candidates were suitable. I believe it saved us 10’s if not 100’s of thousands of pounds in wasted time and energy, employing unsuitable people for the wrong roles.

HOW YOU CAN USE MINDSONAR

COACHING

To move beyond the problem and create new choices, we work with mindsets. We identify the present mindset causing the problem and the new thinking style and values we want to harness. Understanding how your cognitive style interacts with others is the key to healthy change.

TEAM BUILDING

Effective teams work best when they have purpose, trust, accountability, freedom and support. MindSonar shows the collective strengths, blind spots and room for growth when building teams. The team can look into the individual mindset of each member for better mutual understanding and a more productive work flow.

RECRUITING

What mindset does the job role require? Let’s define the combination of thinking style and values that is necessary for success. MindSonar allows you to understand that and then match the candidate’s style to the role. You will also learn how to effectively communicate and motivate that candidate.

LEADERSHIP

Leadership is no single object. We distinguish four essential elements, tha together make up trong leadership. Each one of those has their separate characteristics in terms of mindset. And you can measure them all with MindSonar. Wit one single MindSonar profile you can assess the four leadership elements in any leader.

WHAT WE MEASURE

To describe a person’s mindset, we measure 29 thinking style elements and 7 value types. These can all vary on a scale from 0 to 10. This makes a huge number of variations possible. You or your clients will not get reduced to one of a few cut-out personality types.
Your MindSonar profile is as unique as you are.
