Behavioural Assessment Tools
At Penguin Learning, we believe that self-awareness is the cornerstone of effective leadership. That’s why we integrate industry-leading psychometric assessments from TTI Success Insights into our management development programmes—helping individuals, teams, and organisations understand what truly drives performance.
Our tailored training programmes are built around real needs and real people. Whether we're supporting new managers stepping into leadership for the first time or helping senior leaders refine their style, our approach combines behavioural insight with practical development to create lasting impact.
Our experience spans a wide range of sectors, including finance, construction, engineering, retail, technology, legal, education, insurance, hospitality, logistics, and sustainability. Whatever the context, we use psychometrics not as a label, but as a launchpad for growth.
Why Psychometrics Matter
In today’s complex and fast-paced workplaces, technical skills alone are not enough. Managers must understand how they show up, how they communicate, what motivates them, and how they are perceived by others. Psychometric tools allow us to dig beneath the surface and provide learners with a deeper understanding of themselves and those around them.
Using TTI Success Insights’ scientifically validated suite of assessments, we help individuals explore:
DISC – Behavioural styles and communication preferencesDriving Forces – Core motivators that influence decision-making and engagement
Emotional Intelligence (EQ) – Awareness and regulation of emotions for stronger interpersonal impact
DNA Profiles – Core competencies and skills for leadership success
Acumen Capacity Index – How individuals process information and perceive the world around them
These tools are not standalone—they are integrated into the heart of our programmes, enriching everything from one-to-one coaching and team workshops to recruitment support and leadership development.
Applied Across Contexts
We’ve used these insights in a variety of contexts, including:
Coaching entrepreneurs to build more self-aware, resilient businesses.
Enhancing team dynamics in fast-growing start-ups.
Supporting recruitment and onboarding of senior leaders in global organisations.
Building emotional intelligence and communication skills in customer service teams.
Enabling better collaboration, delegation, and influence in management training cohorts.
Bringing Insight to Action
At Penguin Learning, we go beyond data. We create learning experiences that translate insight into action—helping leaders apply what they learn about themselves to the real challenges they face. Whether it’s navigating conflict, inspiring a team, or making strategic decisions, our programmes ensure that learning is grounded in impact.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a behavioural assessment?
A behavioural assessment is a psychometric tool designed to provide objective insights into an individual's natural behaviours, communication styles, and motivations. It is not a test with right or wrong answers, but rather a way to better understand an individual's preferences in the workplace.
Which assessments do you offer?
As a certified partner, we provide access to the industry-leading suite of assessments from TTI Success Insights. We use these tools, including DISC and assessments for measuring Emotional Intelligence (EQ), to get a comprehensive understanding of an individual or team. Our reports are generated directly through the TTI Success Insights platform, ensuring they are accurate, reliable, and backed by extensive research.
How can behavioural assessments benefit our team?
Assessments can provide a wide range of benefits, including:
- Enhanced Self-Awareness: Individuals gain a deeper understanding of their own strengths and areas for development.
- Improved Communication: Teams learn how to adapt their communication to better connect with different personality types.
- Reduced Conflict: Understanding different behavioural preferences helps to pre-empt and resolve team conflict.
- Better Hiring: Assessments can provide objective data to ensure a good fit between a candidate and a role.
Are the assessments confidential?
Yes, all individual assessment results are confidential and are only shared with the individual. We then use this data to create group-level reports and workshop discussions, but only with the individual's consent, to ensure a safe and trusting environment.
