Goals
WHAT makes founders and startup managers successful? WHERE do they differ from corporate management teams? WHO are the people that get up the courage to start a company from scratch and WHAT are their motivations?
We want to directly reach the people in startups in order to detect patterns of their strengths and weaknesses. How are we going to get there?
- By conducting a survey with 800 participants
- By assessing the participants’ personality structure
- By identifying and reducing eventual obstacles for women in the startup business
- By generating profiles for individuals and their teams
- By suggesting ideas on how to improve teamwork as well as personal work efforts
Methodology
A valuable analysis of the current strengths and areas of development is created for the participant through adding up self- and external evaluations of the employees.
The study is based on a sociodemographic as well as psychometric survey, identifying the participants’ patterns in terms of learning and thinking styles, motivators, professional interest and personality traits.
The sample group comprises 800 startup founders or managers and is selected according to the startup definition by the Austrian Startup Monitor 2018:
FounderCheck
The FoudnerCheck is a well-established multidimensional profiling instrument that allows startups to fill their open vacancies in a more efficient way.
After analyzing the 4 personality dimensions mentioned above our assessment tool furthermore helps to create a personal profile for each participant. These profiles are delivered in the form of reports that look like the example below.
