PrinciplesYou vs PrinciplesUs

Understanding the Key Differences 

PrinciplesYou and PrinciplesUs are two distinct platforms, and this resource outlines the key differences between the two to help you understand how each tool can be leveraged effectively.

PrinciplesYou is a personality assessment for individuals, while PrinciplesUs is a team and organizational tool utilizing our assessment that examines team dynamics and alignment. Although PrinciplesYou users can import their assessment results into PrinciplesUs, the platforms operate independently and require separate login methods.

Our free assessment tool is best used for individual reflection and development. The end profile shows an individual’s archetypes, traits, and factors, and begins exploring their personality in context. The PrinciplesYou assessment is approx 250 questions and takes about 30-40 minutes to complete.

Use Cases for PrinciplesYou:

  • 1-on-1 coaching 
  • Individuals seeking a deeper understanding of their own motivations, strengths, and areas for growth
  • Someone looking to facilitate insightful comparisons and discussions between friends or family members by comparing their results 

Ideal applications of this tool include early coach-coachee relationship building, initial business development phases with leaders, and/or individual coaching sessions. Many PrinciplesUs users use the free PrinciplesYou assessment as an introductory “taste test” with their clients to show the power of the tool and to initiate further exploration. 


Please note, a user can import their results from PrinciplesYou to PrinciplesUs even if the email address they used for PrinciplesYou is different from the email address for their PrinciplesUs account.
