Assessment & Development Disclaimer

4. Assessment & Development Disclaimer

PositionedForSuccess™ assessments and related reports are proprietary, research-informed developmental instruments designed to support leadership self-awareness, reflection, coaching, and professional development.

They are not clinical, medical, psychiatric, or psychological diagnostic instruments. They are not designed or validated as employment-selection, fitness-for-duty, or legal decision instruments and should not be used as the sole basis for hiring, firing, promotion, demotion, compensation, discipline, succession, or another decision producing legal or similarly significant effects.

Results reflect the applicable methodology and responses provided at a point in time. They may be influenced by context, self-perception, rater opportunity, role demands, and other factors. Development bands, continuum positions, and profile interpretations are developmental—not population norms unless expressly identified as such.

Style dimensions do not identify a best style. Strengths & Drivers results do not establish fixed traits or guaranteed strengths. Desired Performance — 12 Months reflects stakeholder judgment about desired behavior, not a forecast. AI-assisted interpretations are hypotheses for exploration and do not establish causation.

PositionedForSuccess™ assessments are grounded in established leadership, organizational psychology, individual-differences, adaptive-performance, workplace-learning, interpersonal-effectiveness, and multisource-feedback research. Research supporting underlying constructs should not be interpreted as independent validation of the proprietary assessments, which remain subject to ongoing psychometric evaluation.
