Break free from your "Personality Type" and intentionally develop the traits that will move you toward the life you want.

Why Most Personality Tests are Flawed – And How Personality Compass Fixes That

Did you know that most commercially available personality tests don’t have scientific support? That’s right – even the ones used by billion-dollar corporations to funnel people into their “ideal” roles. Most people get different results each time they take these tests and they’re about as good at predicting success in a given career as your zodiac sign!

Personality Compass is scientifically valid test that encourages a growth mindset toward your traits

Personality science – research on the nature of personality traits and how they evolve – has consistently found five main personality traits that characterize our most important differences. Personality Compass was developed to capture these traits with fun, modern questions and a report with clear action items.

Scientific study of personality also confirms that, contrary to popular opinion, traits change as we age. Moreover, we can intentionally shape the nature of trait change by taking intentional actions. Your personalized Personality Compass report will provide a window into the strengths and drawbacks of your current traits and offer guidance on personal development goals you might undertake. On any journey of growth, it is important to be clear on our starting point – That’s what the Personality Compass Assessment is for!

"The insights from Dr. Shannon's personality test were so insightful I immediately invited her to be one of the experts in my group coaching program."

I recently had the pleasure of taking Dr. Shannon's personality assessment, and I was thoroughly impressed by the depth of insights it provided. The strategies Shannon suggested were not only insightful but also simple to understand and implement.

Meet Dr. Shannon

Developer, Personality Compass

I’m Shannon – an author, speaker, clinical psychologist, & scientific researcher. I specialize in helping people make intentional shifts to their personality traits to improve career performance, relationships, and mental health.

My research confirms what I saw in my own development and in my patients: People can intentionally shape the traits they need to be successful in the lives they want

Watching my own personality change over time from messy and lazy to off the charts in conscientiousness motivated me to study the principles of trait change in my academic research. I’ve received millions of dollars in research support from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) to develop strategies to nudge personality.

I developed the Personality Compass Assessment to help people identify their starting points on their trait change journey with a test that is actually scientifically valid.

      I took it and I liked that it included both strengths and weaknesses with certain traits. So many personality assessments come from a weakness perspective versus a strengths one.
