Assessment Tool
Thrive by Design Assessment Tool
A behavioural baseline for your team. Fifteen minutes to complete, a structured report in your hands within three to five working days.
What it is
A behavioural assessment built for how people work here.
Each person answers short, realistic workplace scenarios. Their answers are scored across three layers, Purpose, People and Performance, showing not just how people are doing but where the gap sits and what it is costing.
It is grounded in a taxonomy developed at Harvard and adapted for Pakistani professional settings, so the patterns it surfaces are the ones that actually show up here.
Three ways to run it
| Version | Who it is for | What it adds |
|---|---|---|
| Professional edition | Working adults, from early career to senior leadership | Personal Leadership Roadmap for each participant, team baseline for leadership |
| Student Edition | Emerging adults aged 18 to 25 at university | Scenarios drawn from student life, Personal Development Roadmap for each student |
| Three-way feedback | Teams that want more than self report | A manager or supervisor and three to six peers add their view, showing where self view and others’ views align |
What it does
Noise in. A clear baseline out.
Individual impressions
Scored responses
Three scored layers
- Before. Individual impressions, anecdotes and survey sentiment.
- During. Scored responses, compared across the team.
- After. Three scored layers and a clear place to start.
How it works
Three steps. A few working days. One clear baseline.
Complete the assessment
Each participant completes it in about fifteen minutes. Access is issued per engagement.
We review and write the report
Every report is reviewed by Sarah Khan Associates and grounded in your team's own responses, never generic.
You receive your baseline
Within three to five working days.
What you receive
A baseline you can build decisions on.
Each layer is scored against a clear threshold. The report names three connected findings and what each is costing, and gives a sequenced next step. It shows plainly where to spend first, and in what order.
Each participant also receives a private roadmap with their strengths, what to work on, and a two week experiment to try.
A baseline gives the team a shared place to start.
The value is not the score. It is the conversation the score makes possible. A team looking at the same evidence, naming the same gap, and agreeing where to begin.
Privacy and use
Organisations see team level results only, never individual scores. Results are shown only for groups of five or more. Each participant’s report goes only to them.
The Assessment is formative. It supports development and is not used for hiring, promotion, grades or admissions. Read our security and privacy approach
Common questions
What is the Thrive by Design assessment?
A short, scenario-based assessment, taken on a phone, that shows where individuals and teams stand across three layers: Purpose, People and Performance.
How long does it take?
About fifteen minutes.
How is it different from an engagement survey?
Engagement surveys measure how people feel. Thrive by Design measures how people are likely to act in realistic workplace scenarios, so the results point to specific skills to develop.
Who sees individual results?
Only the individual. The organisation receives group-level findings, reported only for groups large enough to protect individuals.
Is it used for hiring or appraisals?
No. It is designed for development and organisational learning only, not hiring, promotion or performance appraisal.
How much does it cost?
Fees depend on group size, measurement points and reporting depth. Book a conversation and we will share indicative ranges.
Run the Assessment with one team.
Not sure which team to start with? One conversation. We will show you where to look.
