How the Assessment Works
Our survey is designed to uncover your organization’s core archetype profile through a structured, data-driven process.
Each section includes 8 targeted questions, with every question mapped to a specific archetype. You respond on a 1–7 scale, indicating how strongly each statement reflects your approach. At the end of the survey, we aggregate your responses into composite scores for every archetype.
From these totals, we identify your Core, Secondary, and Tertiary archetypes, the three patterns that most strongly define how your organization operates and creates impact.
Beyond your overall profile, our team analyzes responses by section to surface deeper insights about how you think, prioritize, and act across different domains.
How We Interpret Your Results
Each archetype sits within a 2×2 strategic matrix, allowing us to map not just who you are, but how you drive change.
Depending on your organization type, we apply a tailored lens to each axis:
Foundations:
Systems ↔ Human Beneficiaries (focus)
Funding ↔ Implementing (approach)NGOs:
Society ↔ Community (focus)
Mobilizing ↔ Delivering (approach)Companies:
Market/Society ↔ Consumers/Citizens (focus)
Investing ↔ Executing (approach)
This framework helps position your organization within a clear strategic landscape - revealing not only your strengths, but also the underlying logic that shapes how you allocate resources, engage stakeholders, and pursue impact.
