The Advancement Readiness Profile

Career Advancement Assessment

Most professionals who are not advancing are not failing at their jobs -- they are failing at advancement specifically. The Advancement Readiness Profile measures the two distinct factors that determine whether advancement happens: how hard you are driving toward it, and how completely you have built the infrastructure it requires.

Factor 1 -- Drive (4 scales)

Ambition and Motivation

Persistence and Resilience

Growth Orientation

Self-Advocacy

Factor 2 -- Readiness (4 scales)

Skill Preparation

Visibility Strategy

Professional Network

Executive Presence

This assessment is a professional development tool. Please read and confirm each statement before proceeding.

This is an assessment, not a test. There is no right or wrong answer, no pass or fail -- be honest with your responses. Do not answer what you think is best or correct; answer the truth for you as you know it.

I understand that this assessment captures tendencies and patterns -- not fixed limitations. These results reflect where I am today, not who I am permanently.

I will use these results for professional strategy and development -- not as confirmation of grievances or as evidence in workplace disputes.

I understand this assessment is part of the DKA Toolkit framework and is designed to be used alongside Duane K. Andrews' course content and the 17 Keys.
