What Is CORE MAP®?

CORE is not just another Personality Profile!
The CORE Multidimensional Awareness Profile (CORE MAP)® is an effective, reliable and in-depth personality assessment tool designed to measure the multiple aspects of self perception and personality development. CORE MAP® measures and evaluates natural tendencies, preferred functioning modes, personal effectiveness traits, strengths, weaknesses, reactionary styles, relating styles, tolerance levels and more. No other instrument provides a fuller, more complete personal profile. CORE MAP® is divided into three parts:
SECTION ONE asks you to look inside yourself and, using one word descriptions, define how you see yourself.
SECTION TWO asks you to look outside yourself at the way you interact with and interpret the world around you.
SECTION THREE asks you to evaluate the degree to which you utilize each of the trait sets available to you under different levels of stress.
From these three evaluations you will gain a great deal of very useful information that can help you plan and direct your life personally and professionally to achieve optimal results. |

CORE assessments are unique in many ways. In fact they are so uniquely superior to most instruments that many people cannot fully appreciate the differences until they have experienced them. Only CORE assessments have the ability to:
- Define how an individual is likely to function in a particular position and overall
- Accurately measure self-perception, behavioral styles and preferred functions
- Measure and predict emotional competence or emotional intelligence (EQ)
- Detect attempts at skewing and discover inadvertent misreporting
- Show development levels over the entire spectrum of human traits - not just their dominant trait
- Describe reactionary patterns and behaviors with and without stressors
- Become quickly conversational and applicable to people and situations across the board. Everyone, from co-workers to customers to family members, can be understood and appreciated more fully using the CORE model.
- Get beyond erroneous self-perception and right to the core of an individual's authentic nature.
- Accurately define training needs so training can be narrowly applied for greatly improved results and minimization of waste in both training time and dollars
- Systematically move individuals away from self-defeating behaviors and beliefs and toward their highest level of functioning, both personally and professionally. CORE assessments are strengths based.
- Measure and track employee progress

How does CORE compare to other profiles?
CORE MAP is unlike any other profile because it measures so many aspects of your personality and then compares them for congruency. Other profiles measure individual aspects of your personality, but they can not tell you if the way you reported is an accurate reflection of your TRUE self or if your responses have been influenced by negative conditioning.
The graph below compares CORE MAP with three other popular profiles on the market. Each of these profiles are good tools when used to measure CURRENT traits, but only CORE MAP can reveal whether or not the traits being measured are natural or conditioned.
There are many assessments on the market, see how CORE compares: |

“Such are the wondrous ways in which leaders do their work – when they know “who” they are and resolve to be their own persons and will accept making their way to their goal by one action at a time…..”
