I love the content of the results package and how it helps us learn how to use our strengths improve on our blind spots and how it all relates to other personalities in our day to day work/life. As a facilitator you did an amazing job of highlighting why each personality type is so special and valued to any workplace. I look forward to working through mine more and using our team chart for future recruitment for the association. "

"The personality test I completed with the UpCloseTeam was very enlightening. It is so important to know your strengths as well as your weakness’ so you can continue to grow and improve as an individual. I could not believe the accuracy of this test. Everything the test described about me was completely valid. This test also revealed things to me that I may not have ever known. Things that could have been a blind spot and harboured my ability work well with others. This insightful tool also helps you better understand the people in your work environment and promotes a sense of harmony by providing you with strategies on how to work with different personality types."
