Almost nobody leaves a quality profiling debrief wishing they knew less about themselves. Most leave wishing they'd gained the insight years earlier.

Yet one of the most common reasons people hesitate to do psychometric profiling is fear. Not fear of the assessment itself, but of what it might reveal.

Will it expose weaknesses I'd rather keep hidden? Will the debriefer know things I've never shared? Will my manager see me differently? What if it confirms something I've suspected about myself for years? What if it uncovers something I'm not ready to face?

Profiling can feel vulnerable. It invites us into a deeper conversation with ourselves, and that can be uncomfortable.

But after 30 years of working with profiling tools and conducting debriefs, I've noticed the fears rarely match the experience.

People fear being judged, yet they often feel understood. They fear being labelled, yet they gain language for patterns they've lived with their whole lives. They fear discovering weaknesses, yet they gain awareness of both their strengths and their development opportunities.

Perhaps the biggest misconception is that a profile defines you. It doesn't. It doesn't decide your future, determine your success or limit your potential. It simply provides a mirror.

A mirror reflects; it doesn’t judge.

The quality of the debrief matters too. A good debriefer is never looking for faults or reasons someone can't succeed. Their role is to create insight, understanding and possibility.

The best profiling conversations help people make sense of themselves. Some discover strengths they've undervalued. Some uncover blind spots that have held them back. Others finally understand why they communicate, lead, decide or respond to pressure the way they do.

Most importantly, they gain agency.

When we understand ourselves better, we make better decisions, build stronger relationships and lead more effectively. We stop fighting our natural tendencies and learn to use them.

That's why profiling can be transformational. Not because it changes who we are, but because it helps us understand who we are.

So if you feel a little nervous about psychometric profiling, you're not alone. The question isn't whether you feel some discomfort.

It's whether the insight waiting on the other side might be worth it.

Curious to try a different kind of profiling?

Drawmetrics, a new psychometric tool from Attitux Singapore, uses no questions at all. You complete a few doodle-level drawings in about 5 minutes. Yet the insight it gives into your behaviour, values and unconscious patterns is remarkable.

Want to know how simple drawings can reveal so much about you? Comment "DRAW" or send me a message and I'll share the details.

An inspiring one-day event bringing together women who are passionate about encouraging others, sharing insights, nurturing confidence and making a meaningful difference in people's lives.
Many women spend their working lives encouraging others, creating insight, building confidence and helping people reach their potential. Empower & Elevate is a day for you, a chance to step away from supporting everyone else and focus on your own inspiration, growth and empowerment.

Join us for an energising day designed especially for women. Connect with like-minded women, strengthen your professional community and hear powerful stories from women whose courage, leadership and achievements may encourage and challenge you.

Our inspirational speaker line-up includes two exceptional international keynote speakers:

Ericka Kelly
Distinguised military leader with over four decades of experience spanning the Air Force Reserce Command, law enforcement, and corporate leadership.

Teresa Kline
Retired NASA Aerospace Engineer with an extraordinary story of determination, innovation and achievement.

They will be joined by a line-up of New Zealand professional women, each bringing their own experience, wisdom and perspective on leadership, resilience, possibility and personal growth.

This is more than a professional development day. It is an opportunity to reconnect with your own purpose, refill your cup and spend time in the company of women who understand the responsibility and privilege of helping others grow.
Come to Christchurch in February 2027 prepared to be inspired, encouraged and elevated.

Great coaches never stop learning. The Coach Development Webinar is an interactive learning session designed to help coaches sharpen their coaching skills through real-world case discussion, peer learning and reflective practice.

Time & Location
24 Oct 2026,
7:30 pm – 9:00 pm NZT
2:30 pm - 4:00 pm SGT

Virtual Event

About the Event
During this webinar, a real coaching case study is presented. Coaches are invited to clarify the situation, identify the key coaching issues, and propose relevant coaching approaches, frameworks and interventions. Rather than prescribing a single “right” approach, the webinar creates a collaborative learning environment where coaches can exchange perspectives, challenge assumptions and learn from one another’s experience. By exploring how different coaches might approach the same case, participants broaden their coaching repertoire and develop greater confidence and flexibility in responding to real coaching situations. It is a community of practice where coaches learn with and from one another.

Facilitator:
Marina Shearer (NZ)
Supervisor:
