Featured Test: What's your dark side at work?

Everyone has different ways of coping with stress and adversity at work. Some people have much more effective strategies, while other people's impulses can create problems.

Most people adapt their strategies and behaviour to some degree to adapt to different environments and people. That's a healthy way of learning and working, but some people struggle more than others. For some, adapting is more of a challenge, and certain ways of thinking of the world and working with other people can cause conflict.

Everyone has automatic ways of dealing with stress and reacting to conflict, and its important to understand your own natural responses, as well as those of others. This can help you to be mindful of some of your less adaptive ways of dealing with stress and the warning signs to look out for in your colleagues.

About

High Potential has developed assessments that have been translated into dozens of countries and used by tens of thousands of people around the world.

High Potential develops and provides psychometric tests and assessments to help you understand your employees, the people you work with or yourself.

We use scientific research to combine psychometrically validated tests with feedback reports that explain who you are, and why you think, act and feel the way that you do. The tests include measures of personality, motivation, resilience, coping strategies, stress management and your dark side at work.

By focusing on workplace attributes and outcomes, we can better understand how the psychology of work affects people and performance. Then, we can tailor programs, processes and interventions to improve people and performance.
