Thomas International Personal Profile Analysis (PPA)

Are you looking for an effective psychometric tool that measures how someone naturally communicates, leads, and works?
Are you looking to understand your natural behaviour at work and how that fits with your current role and within your team?
Then the Thomas PPA is is one of the most powerful levers for performance, satisfaction and growth one of the best, most effective tools there is.
It is not a personality assessment but looks at our behaviours in the workplace and preferred working styles giving us a greater understanding of team dynamics, role suitability and a fantastic start point for some really effective coaching.
As a certified Thomas PPA practitioner I facilitate the assessment, feedback and coaching to make it meaningful, practical and sustainable.

This can be part of any coaching package and works really well as both a stand alone and as part of a group programme.

What is the Thomas PPA?
The Thomas PPA is a world-class behavioural profiling tool based on the DISC model. In under 10 minutes you complete a brief self-assessment online and we then work together to understand your behavioural style – your strengths, motivators, how you respond under pressure, how you prefer to communicate and much more.

With the profile in hand we explore how to leverage your style, align it to your goals, fine-tune how you show up, and maximise your impact – whether you’re leading yourself, a team, or stepping into a new role. The profile looks at but is not limited to

Communication style – how you engage with peers, managers, and clients.
Pace and decisiveness – whether you move fast, methodically, or need direction.
Structure vs. adaptability – how you respond to ambiguity and change.
Preferred environment – where you’ll thrive (e.g. collaborative vs. independent roles).

It is scientifically validated, ISO-certified and aligned with professional psychometric standards.
