Work Personality Index - 2nd Edition (WPI)
A valid and reliable measure of personality that provides insight into an individual's work performance and task effectiveness. A comprehensive set of WPI reports is available for personal and career development applications. The reports are clear, concise, and easy to interpret.
The WPI measures 17 personality traits that research has shown are related to work performance. These traits indicate how individuals work with others, approach their tasks, solve problems, manage change, and deal with stress. Outlining the person’s job-related strengths and identifying areas of weaknesses, the WPI is useful for training and development or personnel selection.
