How Skills Builder Supports Your Critical Thinking for Life

Many people rely solely on self-assessment to evaluate their critical thinking skills, which can result in blind spots and missed growth opportunities. Viewing yourself only through your own perspective may cause you to overlook areas for improvement or undervalue your true strengths. This bias can limit your progress and leave you uncertain about why change feels difficult.

Without honest feedback from others, you might repeat mistakes or miss effective critical thinking strategies. This can lead to frustration when relationships stall, decisions become overwhelming, or balance feels elusive. Genuine growth requires a clear understanding of both your strengths and areas needing development.

Skills Builder addresses this by enabling you to collect input from those who know you well. Their perspectives reveal hidden strengths and improvement areas, offering a fuller picture of your critical thinking for life skills. Our platform integrates this feedback with structured critical thinking exercises, immediate access to resources, and a personalized action plan to support meaningful, lasting progress.

The goal of our questionnaires is to help you achieve your goals by improving your skills. We aim to bring insights to your strengths and weaknesses and reveal blind spots. Without these insights, it’s hard to know what efforts will provide the biggest leaps in your progress.

When you receive your report, you can enter the credentials of the people you want input from. We will send an email with the invitation and a link where they can answer the questions. You will also receive a unique link that you can share on social media or use to create your own invitation. It's up to you to choose what works best for you.

It is not mandatory, but we highly recommend inviting others to provide input. By doing so, you can gain insights from different perspectives and avoid biases that may limit your growth. The more input you receive, the more accurate your results will be.

We understand that gathering input can be challenging, but don't worry, you can always send reminders to those who haven't responded yet.

It's normal to have different perceptions of yourself, and we encourage you to keep an open mind when reviewing your results. However, if you believe that someone provided inaccurate or unhelpful input, you can disable their contribution to your results. This will ensure that your feedback is as accurate and useful as possible.

An action plan is a list of practical steps that you can take to improve your skills and achieve your goals. Based on your results, we provide you with a customized action plan that contains specific actions you can take to address your areas for improvement.
