We Build Trust Through Understanding.  Whether it is trusting your own decisions, building relationships at work, home, or anywhere, or trusting that you are on the right path.  We help identify common ground and ways to bridge differences in communication. We help people develop the skills to see where they are coming from, their impact on others, and how to see differences. If you work with us, you will start to see opportunities to build trust every day and feel confident in your path forward. 

A mirror, not a box

myCORE gives you insight into your tendencies. How you use it will determine if it helps. We recommend you follow these guidelines:

1

There are no bad traits

Every trait carries strengths and challenges, including yours, and including your opposite’s. If you catch yourself ranking traits, you’re missing the point.

2

Describe, don't define

Your profile describes how you tend to operate. It’s a launching point for growth and discovery, not a limit on what you can do.

3

People aren't their traits

Use CORE language to open conversations, not to file people away. “Well he’s EXACTING, so you know what that means…” is the start of a stereotype, not an insight.

4

A tool, not a crystal ball

PREP measures patterns with unusual precision, but no assessment predicts outcomes. Traits don’t excuse behavior, guarantee success, or doom anyone.

We built this to help people find their best environment and to build bridges. However, it is possible to interpret your report unproductively. Misusing our tool starts with putting someone in a box, yourself included. Turning a trait into a verdict, treating one style as “better,” or writing someone off by their trait builds walls out of something designed to build bridges. It’s why your report never arrives as an archetype: we would rather describe you than define you. myCORE is not a medical or psychological diagnosis, and one person’s report is never grounds for judging another.. Thinking about using CORE insights for a team or hiring? Done right, that runs through PREP’s certified coaches and validated tools. Get in touch and we’ll point you the right way.
