How Skills Builders Enhances Your Power and Influence Skills

Many professionals rely solely on self-assessment to evaluate their power and influence skills, but this often provides a limited perspective. We tend to view ourselves through our own lens, missing how others experience our influence in the workplace. This self-perception bias can limit growth, especially when aiming for a promotion or recognition.

Without honest feedback from others, you risk overlooking hidden strengths and areas needing improvement. This can lead to missed opportunities, stalled advancement, and strained workplace relationships. You might feel confident in your skills, but without external input, you could miss the key factors that distinguish top professionals. The outcome can be frustration, uncertainty, and a sense that your career progress is slower than desired.

Skills Builders changes this by incorporating feedback from those who know you well—coworkers, mentors, and friends. This external perspective provides a comprehensive 360-degree view of your power and influence skills, helping you identify blind spots and unlock new strengths. Our platform delivers a professional influence skills development experience with personalized reports, action plans, and tailored resources. You gain the clarity and focus needed to grow, strengthen relationships, and stand out in your field. With Skills Builders, you move beyond guesswork to take control of your career with actionable insights.

We don’t just give you insights, we also hook you up with personalized feedback, flexible action plans, and recommendations for learning resources based on your results.

You should use Skills Builders 'cause we give you insights and solutions you can't find anywhere else. We get that you're driven and ambitious and wanna grow both personally and professionally. That's why we use input from folks who know you to give you a clear picture of your skills and where you can step up. With our personalized feedback, action plan, and recommendations, you got all the tools you need to crush it.

It's easy! Just pick a questionnaire on the topic you want, fill it out, and get a link to your report. You can invite others to give feedback about you, and your results, feedback, action plan, and recommendations will update every time someone answers questions about you. This way, you get a clearer picture of your strengths and weaknesses.

Yep, Skills Builders is totally free! We think everyone should have the tools and know-how to crush it. Our free report gives you a clear look at your skills and where you can step up your game. Plus, we have a paid report if you want the nitty-gritty details.

We use your results data to give you personalized feedback, adaptive action plans, and product recs. We strip the data of personal info to make general stats. We respect your privacy and your data will never be sold or shared with third parties.

We take your privacy super seriously, and we use top-notch security to make sure your data's safe with us.

Other surveys usually just wanna grab your contact info or push some content. Our surveys and support are all about helping you crush it by giving you detailed reports, actionable plans, and spot-on recommendations. Our insights come from folks who know you, so you get a way better idea of your skills and where you can level up.

Our questionnaires are all about helping you hit your goals by boosting your skills. We think knowing yourself is the first step to growing, and our questionnaires give you the lowdown on your strengths, weaknesses, and blind spots. With that info, you can make smart choices on how to level up your skills and reach your full potential.

You can take as many quizzes as you want, and it’s always free. We’ve got quizzes on all kinds of topics to help you figure out your strengths and weaknesses and crush your goals.

When you get your report, you can put in the info of the folks you want feedback from, and we'll shoot them an email invite. You can also share a unique link to the questionnaire on social media or in your own invite. We suggest getting input from at least five people to balance out any bias from just one person.

We suggest you invite others since their feedback can give you a clearer and more balanced view of your skills. Sometimes, we don't see ourselves clearly or miss stuff. Getting input from people who know you helps you get a better grip on your strengths and what you can work on. This'll help you move forward with your personal growth goals.

If you don’t get enough replies, you can always send reminders to the folks you invited every three days or invite more people to join in. We suggest aiming for at least five responses to cover any possible biases. Even though results with fewer replies can still be useful, they might not be as accurate.

You'll get a detailed report that gives you a rundown of your skills and how you did on the topics and questions. The report will have feedback, tips, and suggestions based on your results to help you spot where you can improve.

Only you can see your results. But you can make 'em public by sharing a link with others. If you do, anyone with the link can check out your results.

Yeah, you can trust the results you get from Skills Builders. Our questionnaires are backed by tons of research and have been reviewed by pros. Plus, our smart software automatically spits out the results. You can also turn off results for certain folks if you think their input was off.

The free report gives you all the key insights, a game plan, and tips for personal growth. The paid version has extra stuff, like charts for each question, for those who wanna dig deeper. We think personal growth should be open to everyone, but the paid version is for folks who can support us and help us grow.

Your results will be compared to the average score of others who took the questionnaire. You can also filter by stuff like gender, age group, job, or education level to see how you stack up. But, these filter results will only show up once there's enough data to make a solid comparison.

You'll get an email every time someone finishes their questions. But you'll only get these if notifications are turned on.

It’s important to keep an open mind and see the results as a chance to grow, even if you don’t agree with ’em. But if you think someone didn’t take the questions seriously or gave wrong info, you can turn off their input in your results.

An action plan is a list of steps you can take to boost your skills. Your report will give you a checklist of stuff to do based on your skill level. As you knock these out, new ones will pop up on your list, getting tougher as you go.

We'll suggest resources that meet our high standards, like articles, books, videos, and courses. Putting together these recommendations takes a lot of work, and we're always adding more over time. So, make sure to check your report often for new suggestions.

By sharing stuff that helped you move up, you’re helping out a community of pros all trying to grow and succeed. You’ll get access to the resources others shared that helped them on their career journey.
