This is a great approach and great visualization. I think you could probably promote and sell this as a tool people would love to use for themselves!
One thing to improve a tiny bit: I'm a little confused as the descriptors are a mix of good, bad, and unclear. E.g., is "Strict" a good thing? Is "Ungeeky" good or bad?
Yeah - I made a few mistakes with the descriptors - I created a very long list and then tried to filter them down to just positive or neutral ones. I agree those ones are a little weird. And "bad public speaker" should have been "good public speaker".
If I did this again, I also would have been a little more selective - 81 was too many...
I did a lot of 360 appraisals of a formative nature. I found asking the soft questions gave me the most insight, whether it was from a colleague in the same job or a cleaner, receptionist, service user....
I liked the 3 qustions approach. What do you want me to start doing, what do you want me to stop doing, want do you want me to continue to do. From the answers one could extrapolate a lot about how other rated different characteristics. It even lead me to change my behaviour in a few instances!

Thanks for the encouragement David!

Very interesting, thanks for sharing! I agree with David that this could be a good tool or process to promote to other people. I am interested!
Cool! That's encouraging - I'd be happy to chat about how to set this up! (DM me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TobiasJolly)
Ok, will reach out when I get time! This is Peter Slattery by the way.
Oh! Hi Peter!
