Five Lens · Personal Feedback Report Standard · Preview

Everything in the report comes down to one mark on one line.

The Personal Feedback Report looks at you through five different models. Each reading is a marker on a scale — not a score out of ten, not a type you get filed under. This page shows you what those pages look like and how to read them.

That small marker is the whole idea. It says where your answers placed you, relative to everyone else who has answered the same questions.

01 — The one skill you need

How to read a scale

Move the marker. Nothing about the scale changes — only where you sit on it, and what that tends to look like in ordinary life.

Curiosity

Example scale · drag or use arrow keys

Sticks with what it knowsGoes looking
M

Position: mid-range

Mid-range reading

You sit between the two ends. That isn't a safe middle — it usually means you can go either way, and the useful question is what decides which way you go on a given day.

  • iThere is no pass mark. Both ends of every scale have gifts and costs, and the report names both.
  • iiIt's relative. High means high compared with other people who answered, not high in some absolute sense.
  • iiiIt's a snapshot. It describes where you are now, under your current circumstances — not a fixed trait you're stuck with.

02 — What gets measured

Five lenses, five different questions

Each lens is a separate model with its own scales. Read together, they explain why two people with the same job description behave completely differently under pressure.

  1. Lens 01

    Personal Mastery

    How settled are you in yourself?

    Six readings that together suggest how well you cope when life gets difficult: how you view yourself, how much of a sense of direction you have, how you handle what you can't change, how much you want to learn, the mark you leave on other people, and whether you feel part of something bigger than your own circle.

    • 6 scales
    • + an overall index
  2. Lens 02

    Emotional Resilience

    How well do you recover?

    Three readings, one for each of head, heart and gut: how flexibly you think when pressure mounts, how steady your emotions stay, and how much you believe you can handle what's in front of you. Resilience needs all three — a weak one drags the others down.

    • Flexibility
    • Emotional steadiness
    • Self-belief
  3. Lens 03

    Social Drives

    What are you quietly trying to secure?

    Four drives, each a different need pulling at your behaviour: being safe, belonging somewhere, being recognised for what you do, and contributing to something beyond yourself. The report shows which one is loudest right now — and a loud lower drive usually explains behaviour that otherwise looks out of character.

    • Survive
    • Affiliate
    • Achieve
    • Transcend
  4. Lens 04

    Energy Centres

    Where do you go first — head, heart or gut?

    Everyone has all three. Most people lean hard on one. This lens shows which centre you reach for by default: thinking it through, feeling your way in, or acting on instinct. It's the quickest explanation of why some colleagues want the analysis and others want to start.

    • Intellectual
    • Emotional
    • Instinctual
  5. Lens 05

    The Enneagram

    Which pattern do you fall back on under pressure?

    Nine recognisable patterns of behaviour. You'll show a bit of all nine; the report highlights the one you lean on most, the one backing it up, and the one you use least — often the most useful of the three, because it points at what you habitually leave out.

    • 1 Quality
    • 2 Service
    • 3 Delivery
    • 4 Creativity
    • 5 Insight
    • 6 Vigilance
    • 7 Vision
    • 8 Drive
    • 9 Harmony

03 — What a page looks like

Every page is built the same way

Once you can read one page, you can read all twenty-four. Here's the layout, with the written feedback held back — that part belongs in your own report.

Four to five plain-language statements about what this reading tends to look like in your day-to-day.

What this could mean to you

The consequences — where this shows up at work, in decisions, and in how other people experience you.

Insights

A short piece of context from the research behind this factor.

Reflections

Three or four questions to answer honestly, on your own or with a coach. This is where the work actually happens.

01

Left column: where you sit. The scale, the words that describe each end, and what your particular reading suggests.

02

Middle column: so what. The practical consequences — the part people quote back to themselves months later.

03

Right column: what to do with it. Context, then questions. The report never tells you what to change; it asks you better questions about it.

04 — Setting expectations

Three things it isn't

  • Not a test

    There's nothing to pass. No reading is better than another one, and there's no combination that makes you a stronger candidate for anything.

  • Not a diagnosis

    It's a development tool, not a clinical assessment. It describes patterns of behaviour; it doesn't say anything about your mental health.

  • Not a permanent box

    Readings move as circumstances and self-awareness change. People who redo the questionnaire years later often see exactly where their life shifted.

05 — How it runs

From questionnaire to something you actually use

  1. Answer the questionnaire

    Online, roughly twenty minutes. Answer as you actually are rather than as you'd like to be — the report is only as useful as the honesty you put into it.

  2. Receive your report

    A private PDF, addressed to you. It isn't sent to your manager or your HR team unless you've agreed to that upfront.

  3. Read it once, straight through

    Don't stop to argue with it. Note what stings — the lines that irritate you are usually the ones worth returning to.

  4. Debrief with a practitioner

    Usually 60 to 90 minutes. A certified practitioner takes you through the readings, checks them against your own experience, and helps you decide which one or two are worth acting on.

  5. Work the reflection questions

    Each page ends with questions rather than instructions. Answered properly, over weeks, they're where the change comes from — often alongside coaching or a team programme.
