You've done the development. So why does pressure still pull you back?
The programs landed. The frameworks made sense.
And yet, when the stakes rise, you reach for the same old moves.
That isn't a capability gap. It's an identity gap. Under pressure, leaders don't reach for what they learned. They reach for who they believe they need to be to survive the room.
This assessment measures that. Precisely.
What you get

Twenty minutes online. Seven validated scales. Benchmarked against more than 5,000 leaders globally.
02
A one-to-one debrief with Dr Clare Allen
Sixty confidential minutes where the report stops being data and becomes recognition.
03
Your profile under pressure
Where your strengths overplay, where you leak energy, and what to do about it.

What it measures
Not personality. Emotional behaviour at work: the patterns that drive or derail leadership impact.
- Decisiveness
- Motivation
- Influence
- Adaptability
- Empathy
- Conscientiousness
- Stress Resilience
Plus how each one shifts under pressure, and an Impression Management measure that shows when a leader is polishing their answers, even for themselves.
What it reveals that nobody is saying out loud
The drive and discipline everyone praises, one hard quarter away from burnout.
The confidence that carries the room, and has quietly stopped hearing dissent.
The steadiness that keeps things on track, and quietly blocks the change you need.
These patterns don't show up in a 360. They show up in your decisions, your meetings and your results.

Why Dr Clare Allen
After 30 years as a CEO, coaching hundreds of senior leaders and engaging coaches myself, I know what the pressure does, because I've carried it.
My own EBW result, years ago, changed how I ran my businesses. That's why I use it, and why I don't stop at the report.
