The Courage Assessment
Find out where your courage leads — and where it holds back.
This is not a test. It is a mirror. 93.7% of the leaders we studied had a courage gap: strong in some steps, systematically held back in others. The pattern is specific to you — because your blockers, your fears, your blind spots come from a place no one else can see.
The assessment is your starting point. Where you go from here is up to you.

Why measure courage?
Because it is the one thing that makes everything else work.
Every leadership framework you have learned — trust, psychological safety, accountability, innovation — requires the same thing to become operational: someone has to act before it feels safe to act. That is courage. Not a character trait. A holistic capacity — with a measurable pattern. This assessment shows you yours.
