Understand what you notice first.
Facts, choices, connections. We all notice them, but they do not always come into focus in the same order. The TDF assessment helps you explore your pattern and understand differences with the people around you.

What comes into focus for you?
TDF explores three perceptual lenses: facts, choices and connections. Everyone uses all three. Their relative prominence shapes what you notice and what you may need to look at more deliberately.
Facts
The details, evidence and order that help you make sense of a situation.
What do we know?
Choices
The options, contrasts and priorities that bring a direction into focus.
What matters most?
Connections
The relationships and wider context that show how things fit together.
How is this connected?
Your assessment result
A pattern to explore. A report to return to.
Your result identifies a TDF pattern and provides a personalized report to help you explore it. Compare the descriptions with your experience, consider what others notice, and find questions to bring into everyday life.
A pattern describes perception, not your intelligence, ability or worth. For a Workshop Reveal assessment, your facilitator decides when your result and report become available.
Three lenses, six patterns
