This week on the podcast, Chloe is talking all about personality and workstyle assessments. No, she’s not going to tell you which one is the best (because “best” is relative to what your needs are), but she is going to tell you all about the ways in which using assessments can help you and your team, the limitations of these types of assessments, how not to use them, and what to look for when deciding what assessment might be right for your needs. If you’d like to have a conversation about how and which assessment can best support you and your team’s or business’s needs, you can schedule a consultation with Chloe directly here.Here are the articles referenced during the episode:Is Personality Fixed?

We also talk to Caroline about her own journey as an entrepreneur; where she finds support, the values that inspire and motivate her, the ways in which she’s centered inclusion and belonging, as well as her vision of the future of the type of work she does. Join us as we explore the intersection of business and education and how we can prioritize learning and development in all aspects of our lives.You find Caroline  on instagram at @empoweracademic and on LinkedIn. And, as mentioned in the episode, you can find the Academic Skills Quiz on her website, Empower Academic Coaching, where you can identify whether your child would benefit from some external support on academics.During this episode, Caroline also referenced Trudi Lebron and her book, The Antiracist Business Book as resources that have helped her in her DEI journey and approach.Resources: We're launching a Culture Certification Course this year!
