What professionals say about the Shaw Strengths Matrix assessment
"This assessment combines solid scientific grounding with clear practical value. It reveals nuanced aspects of personality that are often overlooked, providing meaningful insights into how individuals approach work and perform within organisations. Its depth and applicability make it a highly impactful tool for workplace practice."

"This scale offers a fresh way to evaluate people in organisations. Instead of just checking skills, it looks at deeper strengths like courage and curiosity. By focusing on how people think and feel across time, it gives a more complete picture of their potential. This could change how companies hire, train, and grow their teams."

"The psychometric model is both comprehensive and insightful. The questions are capturing the constructs as defined and are clear and aligned with the theoretical framework. Overall, I believe it's a robust measurement tool."

"The theoretical framework and content are really well thought out, each construct feels well defined, and the survey items reflect that. I especially liked how the paired choices made me think more deeply instead of just picking what sounds good."

"The 12-trait SSM™ framework is conceptually interesting and has potential as a tool for self-reflection and personal development. The underlying theory of mapping four cognitive preferences (Intuition, Thinking, Feeling, Sensing) across three temporal orientations (Past, Present, Future) is logical, and draws on relevant theory to create this framework."
Dr Dan Van De Werf, PhD

"The assessment adds significant value as it integrates four established psychological models into one framework, providing insights that would not be available if any of the models were used in isolation. This clearly demonstrates that the SSM™ is grounded in sound psychological theory. As a psychologist or HR professional, this would reassure me that the tool is built on reputable, evidence-based foundations."

"The theoretical content was clear and thoughtfully put together. The survey made it easy to reflect on real-life situations and how different traits come into play."
