QUIZ: How tough are you MENTALLY?

There is widespread, growing interest in understanding the relationship between behavioural preferences and business success, and research has identified a cluster of nine behavioural strengths, or competencies, that are linked to both mental toughness and peak leadership performance. The PRISM Mental Toughness Inventory measures a candidate’s preference for each of those behaviours. 

They include: self-belief, ambition, resilience, self-management, optimism, determination, independence, competitiveness and adaptability. 

The PRISM Mental Toughness Inventory is an exciting advance in the ability to measure the building
blocks that are scientifically linked to business success.

It is important to note, however, that in addition to mental toughness strengths, high-performance leaders are also very effective at relationship building and relationship management, and excel at developing and motivating others through whom they achieve their results.
