The MindScan™

Revolutionize Your Coaching Approach with The MindScan™

The MindScan™ empowers you as a coach to differentiate yourself in the market to have a bigger, bolder, and more insightful potential client discovery session based on the groundbreaking scientific research from Nobel Prize-nominated Dr. Robert S. Hartman.

Assessing the "How" of Your Thought
Processes in Three Dimensions

Based on the science of the Nobel Prize-nominated Dr. Robert S. Hartman, the MindScan™ assessment is a proprietary method for measuring a person's capacity to make value judgments concerning the world and one's self. Instead of simply understanding "how" a person behaves in the workplace, it reveals precisely how to align a person's thinking strengths with a business plan in order to achieve success.

Unlike other tools, the MindScan™ assessment can be completed in 20 minutes or less, consisting of only two pages/unique sets. It doesn't directly compare you to a specific population sample in the way some traditional personality tests do. Instead, it focuses on your individual value hierarchy and how the different intrinsic, extrinsic, and systemic values rank in importance for you.

While the assessment itself is valuable, the true power lies in the MindScan™ report. This report goes beyond a simple evaluation; it literally shows your thinking patterns, providing a roadmap to your natural strengths and potential weaknesses. By understanding both, you can leverage your strengths and develop strategies to manage weaknesses, ultimately unlocking your full potential for peak performance.

First Dimension

Intrinsic Value

Measures how you value yourself and determines your capacity for love and intuition.

Second Dimension

Extrinsic Value

Reflects your economic and social awareness and assesses your capacity to excel in tasks, projects, and processes.

Third Dimension

Systemic Value

Reflects how you perceive structures, systems of order, rules of engagement, and others while measuring your capacity for strategic vision, long-range planning, implications, and consequences.

Thinking Overview Graph

Your Perspective of the World and Yourself
Overly
Attentive
External
World
We are all constantly in communication and dialogue with ourselves and others around us. The External World shows how much clarity and attention “bias” we have in the three primary external dimensions of Relator, Doer, and Thinker.
Disregard
Empathy
How much clarity do we have in understanding others, and do we trust, enable, discount, or distrust others?
How much clarity do we have in understanding others, and do we trust, enable, discount, or distrust others?
Practical Thinking
How much clarity do we have to see all the options and the ways things could be done, and do we value taking action or lean toward being more cautious? The larger the clarity, the more options and possibilities we can see.

Structured Thinking
How well do we see structured thinking like rules, regulations, policies, procedures, and financials, and do we prefer everything to be perfect as it “should be,” or do we prefer to disregard the structure, rules, and processes?

Who Am I
My Being
(Relater)
The relator, also called intrinsic value in traditional psychology, refers to the value of self and others. “Who am I?”
What I’m
Doing Now
(Doer)
The Doer, also called extrinsic value in traditional psychology, refers to the value of what could be as in what are all the potential comparative options. “What could be?”
The Way It
Should Be
(Thinker)
The Thinker, also called systemic value in traditional psychology, refers to defined parameters of thinking. “What should be?”
Overly
Attentive
Internal
World
We are all constantly in communication and dialogue with ourselves and others around us. The Internal World shows how much clarity and attention “bias” we have in the three primary internal dimensions of Self Empathy, Role Awareness, and Self Direction.
Disregard
Self Empathy
How much clarity do we have in understanding ourselves, and do we value or discount our feelings, emotions, and self-worth?
Role Awareness
How well do we understand our roles for ourselves and are we maximizing our full potential or not reaching our full potential?
Bias is the over or under-attentiveness within dimensions of thinking. A positive Bias of +10 indicates a high value or attention within that dimension while a lower Bias of -10 indicates a lower value or attention within that dimension. A Bias in the middle range of -2 to +2 indicates a balance Bias within that dimension of thinking.
Self Direction
How much clarity do we have in understanding our overall direction for self, and are we committed to this direction like a line in the cement, or are we more like a line in the sand or a leaf in the wind being very open to the commitment to our direction?
Clarity Scale
Outstanding:
Precise, Extremely Clear, Ease to Use.
Excellent:
Clear, Accurate, Ease to Use, A Source of Strength.
Very Good:
A little fuzzy, Some time to required to others’ views.
Good:
Hard to see others’ views, Lacking Precision.
Fair:
Very foggy, Very difficult to get clear ideas or use this thinking.
Unclear:
Blind, you cannot see with this thinking at this point.
Clarity ranges from an Outstanding large blue circle to an Unclear small brown circle. The larger the circle, the more clarity we have in being able to see and understand the entire scope and view within that dimension of thinking. The smaller the circle, the less clarity we have to see and understand within that dimension of thinking. The larger the clarity is much like a wide-angle telephoto lens with clarity, and the smaller the circle, the more narrow and blurry the view within that dimension.
