The Ducora manager assessment

How effective are you as a manager?

Thirty questions about what you actually do at work, not what you know. You get a score out of 100, then a detailed report on where you are strong, where there is room to grow, and what to try next, with the words to say.

Free. You see your score straight away, no email needed.

What matters to you, side by side

02Before you start
  1. 1Think about the last four weeks, not your best week.
  2. 2Choose what you actually do, not what you think you should do.
  3. 3Some questions describe a moment and ask what you would do. Pick the closest, not the best-sounding.
Straight answers
  • This is a practitioner tool built from our playbooks, not a validated psychological test.
  • Self-ratings are a poor guide on their own. Treat the result as a way into a conversation, not a verdict.
  • Your answers stay on this page. Nothing is saved or sent unless you ask for your report by email.

What this is, and what it isn’t
  • It is a practitioner tool built from the behaviours in our playbooks. It is not a validated psychological test.
  • The bands and the weights are our own provisional choices, not norms from a tested sample. Questions that ask what you would do in a situation count for twice as much as questions about how often you do something, because they are harder to flatter yourself on.
  • Self-ratings are a poor guide on their own. Treat your result as a way into a conversation with your team, not as a verdict.
  • Your answers stay on this page. Nothing is saved or sent unless you ask for your results by email.

Now ask your team.

Self-ratings are a poor guide on their own. The Team Check lets your direct reports rate the same seven habits anonymously, so you can see where your view and theirs differ.

Want this for every manager?

Ducora starts every programme by diagnosing: the assessment for each manager, a short pulse from their teams, and a clear read on where to begin. Then half of every session is spent rehearsing real conversations.
