About TRAITs

The right people in the right roles make all the difference.

For over 30 years, TRAITS—a psychometric assessment tool owned by Concord Consulting Corporation—has been empowering organizations to hire, manage, and align their teams more effectively. Our approach is based on the belief that every job has a personality, and finding the right match between a person and a role is key to long-term success.

The power of TRAITS centers on the science of psychometrics , helping businesses gain a deep understanding of their employees’ strengths and motivations, to ultimately drive better performance. Unlike other personality assessments, we don’t measure a person’s style or “type.” Instead of a limited either/or approach, such as Introverted vs. Extroverted, what sets us apart is our unique approach to measuring Traits on a scale.

The 7 Essential Work Traits

Our psychometric assessment powerfully predicts seven key work behaviours, using our unique scale-based approach:

  1. Assertiveness: Leadership style and team dynamics
  2. Sociability: Work relationship preferences
  3. Patience: Task management approach
  4. Detail Orientation: Structure and standards adherence
  5. Behavioral Adaptability: Project engagement style
  6. Emotional Control: Decision-making approach
  7. Creativity: Problem-solving methodology

We are dedicated to helping organizations unlock the hidden potential within their teams. TRAITS ensures that every individual is set up for success, building a workforce that aligns perfectly with your company culture and goals.
