Sound Familiar?

These are the patterns we see in organizations that haven't diagnosed the root causes yet.

  • !

    Scope creeps in through side conversations and nobody pushes back

  • !

    Key people get pulled away to other work at the worst possible time

  • !

    Risks surface at the last minute because nobody felt safe raising them earlier

Frequently Asked Questions

Aren't projects considered an anti-pattern in agile?

Projects are a reality in most organizations, even those practicing agile. This assessment helps you deliver projects effectively using agile principles rather than pretending projects don't exist.

Is this just for software projects?

No. The competency pillars cover universal delivery challenges โ€” goal clarity, team stability, risk management โ€” that apply to any type of project.

Is this really free?

Yes, completely free. You get your full Growth Wheel, Dreyfus-level scores for all six competency pillars, and personalised growth recommendations โ€” no credit card, no sign-up required.

How long does it take?

About 5 minutes. The assessment has 30 questions โ€” five per competency pillar. Each question asks you to rate yourself against an observable behaviour, so there are no trick questions or lengthy scenarios.

What's the Dreyfus model?

The Dreyfus model of skill acquisition describes five stages of mastery โ€” from Beginner through to Expert. Unlike generic scoring, Dreyfus levels map to specific, observable behaviours at each stage.

Can I retake it?

Absolutely. Retaking every few months helps you track growth over time and see how deliberate practice shifts your scores.

Is my data private?

Yes. Your results are stored locally in your browser. If you choose to create an account later, your data stays private and is never shared or sold.

โ€œThe most successful projects aren't the ones with perfect plans โ€” they're the ones that learn fastest.โ€
