This scenario is fictional and for illustration only. It is not based on real events in your organisation.
This diagnostic measures how you default to communicating when information is partial and stakes are high.
There is no right or wrong answer. Choose the response that feels most like your instinct.
What you get at the end is a clear picture of your default pattern — where it serves you and where it limits you.
Your organisation has decided to move to an AI-first product. As a result, reporting lines, job specifications, and ways of working will change over the coming months.
The decision has been signed off at leadership level, but it has not yet been communicated to the organisation.
You are a department lead and part of the core project team. You know the details before most people do, including your own team and most of your peer leads.
The decisions below take place in the weeks between sign-off and the moment the news is shared with the rest of the company internally.
Thank you for completing the diagnostic.
What follows is not a verdict. It is a pattern — observed across different decision points under the same pressure.
Every Communication Persona has its strengths and its costs. The goal is not to change who you are. It is to see more clearly what you do by default — and the impact it has on the people you are communicating with.
Every Persona has room to improve their impact. We will show you how.
