This personal report is a detailed, personalised description of your personality profile, derived from your answers to the Townsend Personality Questionnaire (TPQ®) instrument. Currently the most popular approach among psychologists for studying personality traits is the Five-Factor model or Big-Five dimensions of personality. The TPQ® is designed in the same way.

The following are some of the important characteristics of the five factors. Firstly, the factors are dimensions and not types, therefore people vary continuously on them. Most people fall within the extremes. Secondly, these factors proved to stay stable over a 45-year long period beginning in young adulthood. Thirdly, the 5 factors are considered universal.

What distinguishes this personality assessment from others is that it is not based on a particular psychologist’s theory or any opinions about human nature. Instead, it is based on language, and the ‘natural’ system that people use to understand one another. Because language provides the structure with which we frame the world around us, this assessment uses it as its primary point of departure.

The Townsend Emotional Intelligence Inventory (TEQ-i^®) is developed to measure Emotional Intelligence and has application for both personal development as well as effective workplace functioning. Emotional Intelligence is a form of intelligence that involves the ability to monitor your own and others’ feelings and emotions, to discriminate among them, and to use this information to guide your thinking and action. The TEQ-i^® measures a range of emotional intelligence facets and provides a detailed perspective of your emotional competence levels. Because abilities such as being able to handle frustration, controlling emotions, and getting along with other people (emotional competence) matters much more than IQ and technical skills combined, the Townsend Emotional Intelligence Inventory identifies your emotional competence gaps and provide targeted development direction for optimal functioning in the workplace and society. The questionnaire was developed by Dr Gary C. Townsend of Skillworx Africa (Pty) Ltd – and is based on the Consortium for Research on Emotional Intelligence in Organisations Emotional Intelligence Framework.
