The System for psychometric diagnosis of soft skills “Self Awareness” was developed by the British consulting company "Apricot Training Management". It is based on a psychometric model of behavior in the workplace with over 60 years of practical application ( the so-called "Theory of the four quadrants"), developed by the American psychologist William Moulton Marston ( 1893-1947 ) . According to this model, in terms of personal characteristics people fall into four main categories: Drivers, Influencers, Steadier, Calculators (DISC).
The Self Awareness System was scientifically tested and validated by the Psychometrics Centre at University of Cambridge. Self Awareness is a system used by thousands of students, job seekers, and many colleges, universities and employers in the UK. Regular surveys of customer satisfaction show a very high level of satisfaction (over 99 %).
More information about systems and services based on it can be found here (In Bulgarian).
SelfAwareness is introduced in Bulgaria by Industry Watch.
