What the WISE Assessment Measures

🔍

The WISE Assessment by Workzbe is a scientifically validated tool designed to help individuals and organizations enhance performance, purpose, and well-being by evaluating four core dimensions:

1. Well-being – Physical and emotional energy management (e.g., sleep, recovery, mood).

2. Intelligence – Strategic thinking, adaptability to stress, and clarity under pressure.

3. Safety – Internal (psychological) and external (physical) safety, including how openly one communicates limits.

4. Empowerment – Connection to purpose, motivation, and ability to set boundaries.

Each report includes:

• A summary of your current performance state

• Key strengths ("Glows"), areas to develop ("Grows"), and surprise areas ("Buffalos")

• Suggested next steps, including habit-building, delegation, or coaching strategies

• Organizational impact insights if part of a team rollout

For example, in a recent WISE report:

• His well-being score indicated high fatigue and burnout.

• His safety score revealed he supports others but often withholds his own stress signals.

• His empowerment score showed strong purpose, but depleted confidence due to lack of personal refueling.

🧠

Participants complete a comprehensive, psychometrically robust assessment. The results provide:

• Individualized scores and interpretations across all four WISE domains.

• A breakdown of behavioral tendencies, such as:

  • Risk-taking

  • Rumination

  • People-pleasing

  • Confidence in challenging systems

• Personalized work-style insights, including:

  • Learning and recognition preferences

  • Ideal team dynamics

  • Emotional and cognitive stress patterns.

Unlike traditional performance or wellness assessments, WISE bridges personal insight with actionable strategy, helping leaders:

• Avoid burnout

• Improve psychological safety

• Reconnect with purpose

• Strategize sustainably during high-pressure seasons
