The Tri-Factor Assessment

The behavioral intelligence layer that skills data cannot see.

One assessment, three lenses on how a person actually works, with the depth of the global standard, purpose-built and normed for the Gulf.

The problem worth solving

Organizations invest in skills. They lose people to behavior.

46%

of new hires fail within 18 months

Leadership IQ

89%

Leadership IQ

47%

average executive derailment rate across nine studies

Gentry and Chappelow

Executives are hired on experience, and fired on personality.

CORE · DRIVE · EDGE

The whole person, not a single signal.

Any one lens is a partial picture. Read together, they explain not just what a person does, but why they do it, and when it breaks down.

Core

The Style

How they operate day to day, the working style colleagues and managers experience.

Grounded in the Five-Factor Model

Drive

The Motive

What energizes them, and the environments where they will thrive or stall.

Grounded in Spranger's theory of values

Edge

The Risk

How strengths behave under pressure, and where they can tip into liabilities.

Grounded in Horney's interpersonal orientations

What the client receives

Insight, not a wall of numbers.

Executive debrief

The instant read of the whole profile.

Threshold view

Where each strength sits, and where it tips into a liability.

Coaching guidance

Discussion openers and development notes, built for the room.

Suite integration

Cross-module tensions revealed across Core, Drive, and Edge.

The report library

A library of reports, drawn from one assessment.

The candidate completes the assessment once. From that data we produce any report in the library, each built for a different decision and a different reader.
