Find Your Conflict Response Pattern

A self-assessment to identify whether you tend to avoid, accommodate, compete, or collaborate | and which EQ skills to train next.

Rate your default under tension

Answer for how you actually respond, not how you'd like to. A higher score means a stronger pull toward avoiding.

1.When tension rises, I go quiet to keep the peace.
2.I agree in the room, then feel differently once I've left.
3.I avoid raising issues until they've already built up.
4.I'd rather drop a valid point than risk an argument.
5.I replay conflicts in my head instead of addressing them directly.

Your answers stay on your device. Nothing is sent or saved.

Why this works

You cannot change a conflict pattern you cannot see. This check makes your default response visible — then the drills give you an alternative to choose instead.

Questions

How accurate are self-reported EQ assessments?

Self-reported tools are moderately accurate when taken honestly and repeatedly. Single-point assessments can be distorted by mood or recent events. For the most reliable picture, combine self-report with peer ratings (360 data) and behavioural observations from people who know you in professional contexts.

How often should I use these tools?

Monthly tracking gives you enough data to see trends without over-optimising. For the reactivity score, before and after each drill session is useful. For the broader self-assessment, every 60–90 days is sufficient — EQ traits shift slowly with consistent practice.

What do I do with my results after taking an assessment?

Identify your lowest-scoring area and find a matching goal or path to work on. Do not try to address everything at once. One focused 30-day effort on a specific gap will produce more change than a general intention to improve across all areas.

Can these tools replace professional EQ coaching?

They are not a replacement — they are a complement. Tools surface the gaps; coaching helps you understand why those gaps persist and how to address root causes. If a gap is significant and recurring, adding a coaching conversation is worth the investment.

What if my score does not match how I think I am doing?

That gap is itself a form of self-awareness data. If you scored lower than expected, consider what the tool is measuring that your self-perception might be missing. If much higher, ask whether the assessment was taken on a representative day. Both directions are informative.
