How scores work

A structured self-reflection, not a test

You answer each statement on a 7-point scale, from strongly disagree to strongly agree. Each pillar's score is the average of your answers for it, shown as high, moderate or low. While you answer, nothing is shared with the DARE Agent; after your results, you choose whether it may use them.

  1. 1
  2. 2
  3. 3
  4. 4
  5. 5
  6. 6
  7. 7
Strongly disagreeStrongly agree
Bands: Low below 3.5, Moderate 3.5 to 5.4, High 5.5 to 7.

The Business, Transformation and Leadership Assessments are DAREframe's own and have not been scientifically validated. The Life Assessment is based on the Comprehensive Well-Being Assessment Tool. Use your scores to decide where to look first, not as a verdict.

After you finish

Your results become your next step

  1. Step 1: See your wheel

    Every pillar scored, so the low ones stand out.

  2. Step 2: Get suggested goals

    Let the DARE Agent use your results and it suggests 3 to 9 goals for you to approve. Or start from an example and write your own.

  3. Step 3: Plan the actions

    Break the goal into actions and put them on your calendar.

  4. Step 4: Retake and compare

    Come back later and see what moved.
