Contemporary design
Designed by leading experts, Qualia has over a decade of research and development behind it. Its unique nipsative question format and British standard statistical trialling offer superior accuracy over other tools.
It's written in culturally neutralised English so you can use it internationally wherever first or second language English is spoken, including the United Kingdom, America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, India, Singapore, Malaysia, The Philippines, Hong Kong and South Africa.
Qualia has 87 question clusters accommodating 261 sub-questions. It takes 20 to 30 minutes to complete.
Love the format — easy to read… More comprehensive than the 16PF, less jargony than the MBTI … Head and shoulders above DISC. A very practical, useful tool.
User-friendly results
Results are displayed as peer-group comparisons so you can see your staff or clients' traits relative to what is normal for other working people.
It also offers an optional Problem Predictor that assists with pre-screening job candidates for derailment behaviours such as bullying, volatility, unreliability, passivity and resistance to change.
Excellent, thank you very much. Having done some similar things in the past, I can say that it's a good reflection… Crucially, the presentation of results is the best I've seen.
Comprehensive
Qualia does not put people in boxes. It gives you a very individualised profile of 29 personality traits, providing rich insight into each individual's…

Interpersonal style
Drivers and motivations

[Qualia] is the best tool available for building self-awareness and getting behavioural change. I dedicated the whole of last year to researching these tools, to find the best one. This was the winner.

I am extremely impressed with the depth of [Qualia]. It doesn't pigeon-hole people but creates a truly comprehensive profile of an individual. Nonetheless it's surprisingly clear and very easy to understand.
It's particularly great for its ability to clarify areas for personal development. I’m amazed at the Interpretation Guide. It’s all exceedingly well put together.
