Stepping Stones - Total View Assessment

UNDERSTANDING THE TOTALVIEW ASSESSMENT

No two people have even been identical. Every individual is a unique mixture of qualities -- important, but difficult to measure. We are influenced by our heredity, environment and life events. These factors, along with our experiences, shape us and make us who we are.

The TotalView Assessment^TMis the first validated, business-oriented human resources assessment created in over a quarter of a century. It was developed beginning in 1989 and was introduced to the business world in 1993. The chief architect of the TotalView is Dr. David Bertram, head of the Department of Psychology at Hull University. Dr. Bertram is a Chartered Occupational Psychologist, a Fellow of the British Psychological Society and a leading specialist in the field of psychometrics.

The TotalView Assessment^TM is the most advanced measuring tool for assessing work-related qualities. With it, we can obtain accurate information about people that aids in optimizing their potential for career and life success. The TotalView measures learning speed and style, where strong motivations and interests lie, and twenty-four personality characteristics -- such as competitiveness, assertiveness, response to structure and change, how organized one is, group-orientation, response to stress, sense of urgency -- that are essential to professional and personal success.
