Free assessment · blameFACTOR
Where does your blame go?
Everybody blames. The only question is which direction it travels — out at other people, in at yourself, or into storage until something small sets it off. blameFACTOR scores that, names the pattern driving it, and tells you what to do differently.
Thirty-seven questions, about ten minutes. Your result is on screen the moment you finish.
What it measures
One number, two directions, five patterns.
Part one reads how you actually talk when something goes wrong — the statements you reach for, not the ones you would like to think you reach for. Part two measures self-esteem, which is the amplifier: the lower it sits, the louder everything in part one gets.
The Blame Index
A single score out of 100, banded from Accountable through Blame under pressure to Loaded / Locked. It is the honest headline.
Blame OUT / Blame IN
Two separate axes, because they are two separate habits. You can run high on one, both, or neither — and “both barrels” is more common than people expect.
The mechanics
Which ego states are doing the work underneath the number, and what each one is costing you in the room.
The five profiles
Everyone lands on one.
Not a personality type. A description of what you do in the ninety seconds after something goes wrong.
The Prosecutor
You are not asking what happened — you already know, and you are building the case. The questions are charges.
The Loaded Gun
You do not blame in the moment, you store it. Then something genuinely small sets off months of it at once.
The Silent Scorekeeper
Nothing gets said and nothing gets forgotten. The tally is private, and it is running.
The Deflector
It moves — off you, onto the timeline, the brief, the market, the last guy. Rarely onto a person by name.
The Accountable
You solve before you sentence. Blame does not get a seat at the table.
What comes back
A read, then a redo.
A score with no next move is just a label. The last section of the report is the part that changes Monday.
- Your indexThe number and its band. Where you sit on a 0–100 scale, and what that band actually means in practice.
- Your directionOut, in, both, or neither. Scored separately, because the fix for each one is different.
- Your profileThe pattern, written plainly. What you do, why it works just well enough to keep doing it, and what it costs the people around you.
- The redoThree specific moves. Built on STOP and PRAT — the same frameworks behind the keynote and the book, applied to your result rather than explained in the abstract.
For leadership teams
The MRPI 360.
The Multi Rater Personality Inventory is the serious version: a 360 behavioral self-discovery instrument, run across a leadership group and always paired with a formal debrief.
A self-assessment tells you who you think you are. A 360 tells you who the room experiences. The distance between those two answers is usually where the work is — and it is not a number you can act on without someone sitting down and walking you through it. That is why the debrief is not optional.
You cannot coach a gap that nobody has seen yet.
