Do you find it challenging to admit what you don't know? Are you able to be curious about perspectives different to your own? Can you embrace ambiguity and retain an open mind?

This scale is designed to measure how you self-assess yourself in your ability to engage in blindspotting. It measures the three mindsets of blindspotting - intellectual honesty, intellectual curiosity and cognitive flexibility - as well as the nine practices.

You do not need a formal leadership role to complete this survey. We are all leaders - whether in our families, our communities or our workplaces. This is a self-assessment anyone can take and benefit from.
