A structured evaluation of the traits that published research most consistently associates with founder and chief-executive performance.
What to expect. Roughly 60 to 75 minutes: a short background section, a 24-item reasoning section, and seven trait areas measured in depth — around fifty statements each, because short scales are noisy and we would rather measure eight things well than eighty things badly.
Answer quickly and honestly. First instincts are the most valid data, there are no trick statements, and the instrument contains internal consistency checks, so an honest middling answer serves you better than a polished one.
Your progress saves automatically on this device, so you can leave and resume. Responses go only to the Heron Capital team and are read alongside ordinary diligence. No decision is made from this instrument alone.
