Intro session

Talent test.

A 90-minute meeting with me + a structured personality diagnostic.

Stanislav Bogdanov

The first step of any work I do with a client. The starting point of coaching — and the way for us both to honestly see whether we're a fit.

What this is

This is not a «self-discovery game» or a wellness app. It's a structured professional assessment I've been using for over 10 years — including for hiring key people in my own businesses and in clients' companies.

The test measures 10 personality traits on two poles. Each one runs from −100 to +100. The output is a graph that shows not «how nice you are» but where your energy is, where the gaps are, where the self-assessment is off.

The test itself is a tool. The value is in the one-hour read-out. I've looked at hundreds of profiles. I know how the same numbers read in an entrepreneur, in a top executive, in someone going through a crisis. This is not a «coaching session» — it's a sober breakdown.

What we'll see together

  • 01Your level of inner stability and how it sags under pressure
  • 02Whether you're in resource right now, or in a state of hidden burnout
  • 03Decision-making capacity — and where you sabotage it
  • 04Active vs passive — and whether it's a chosen stance or a defense
  • 05Level of ownership and where it's outsourced to the environment
  • 06Self-assessment accuracy — a critical metric almost no one measures
  • 07Capacity for close relationships vs professional distance
  • 08Communication capacity across three different modes

How it works

  1. 01

    Apply and pay

    Send the application below. I personally come back within 24 hours with a meeting time and payment details. The fee is a filter at the door — without payment we don't begin.

  2. 02

    Test online (~30 minutes)

    I send you a link to the test. You fill it in alone, in calm conditions, without rushing. Answer honestly — otherwise we waste the hour.

  3. 03

    Meeting on Zoom (60 minutes)

    I arrive with your profile in front of me. We go through each of the 10 scales, looking at patterns. I ask questions, you answer. I don't «read your mind» — I show what's visible in the data and listen for what resonates.

  4. 04

    What's next — your call

    You can simply leave with a sharper understanding of yourself. You can step into coaching — I'll tell you straight whether I see a fit. You can pause. No pressure.

What you'll get

A precise map of 10 traits

Not «you're great», but concrete coordinates on concrete scales. Numbers you see yourself.

A read-out from someone who has seen hundreds of profiles

I don't «guess from tests» — I've worked with this methodology from inside my own companies, where the accuracy of hiring carried million-euro consequences.

A sober assessment, no coaching glaze

If three of your scales show a gap — I'll say so. Not to scare you, but because clarity starts there.

An understanding of whether I'm your coach

This is also my filter point. I don't take everyone into year-long work. After this meeting, we both see whether there's a reason to go further.

Who this is for

Yes, if you:

  • Are an owner or a top executive — serious decisions sit on you
  • Honestly want to see yourself in numbers, not in compliments
  • Are considering coaching and want to start with a sober introduction
  • Are ready to spend 30 minutes on the test without rushing or gaming it
  • The fee reads as «let's do this», not as «too expensive»

No, if you:

  • Are looking for a «free consultation»
  • Just want to «chat» — this is not a sales call
  • Aren't ready to hear results that don't match your self-image
  • Expect a turnkey action plan in an hour (it's not that)

Testimonial

«The test gave me a picture I was ashamed to look at on my own. After the read-out with Stas I stopped spending energy on roles that aren't mine. It paid for itself within a month.»

Frequently asked

What methodology is behind the test?

A recognised HR methodology that measures 10 personality traits across two poles. I've worked with it for over 10 years. I don't lean on the brand name — my value isn't in the test itself, it's in the read-out.

Does it take 30 minutes or 90?

30 minutes — the test online, you fill it in before the meeting. 60 minutes — the Zoom meeting where we read the result. Together, about 90 minutes of your time.

Do I get a PDF report?

No. At this stage — only the meeting. I deliberately don't send a «read-out document» — without conversation, numbers lead to wrong conclusions. In practice, people forget written recommendations in a week, but remember what they said out loud themselves.

What if I want coaching after the meeting?

The fee is not credited toward coaching. This is a standalone product with its own value. If I see we fit, we discuss the first contract separately.

What if I DON'T want coaching?

Fine. That is exactly the point of an intro diagnostic — to see yourself sober and leave with your own conclusions. No sales pressure.

Does this work if I'm a senior executive, not an owner?

Yes. The test is universal — I adjust the read-out to your role and context.
