Growth

Wanting to keep learning and becoming a better version of yourself.

Measured by the Core Values Compass test. Scores run from 0 to 100.

Low scores (under 40): Less central

You are fairly content with who you are and how you do things. That is a calm place to stand, though it can mean staying put when a nudge would help.

Balanced scores (40 to 60)

You like to learn and improve when something sparks it, without making self-development a project.

High scores (over 60): Core to you

You keep asking how you could understand more or do better, and you seek out feedback. It compounds over the years, but it can turn into never feeling finished or good enough.

Sources and method

This lens asks how much ten broad values matter to you and ranks them by your answers. It relies on self-report, so it captures what you believe about yourself today, not a fixed truth. Most people rate many values highly, so the bands show relative emphasis within your own profile, not how you compare with anyone else. The useful part is the order and the gaps between them. Treat the result as a rough prompt for reflection, not a label.

Neither end of a dimension is better. Each comes with strengths and costs. For self-reflection and entertainment only.
