At TALY, we take building robust and reliable personality and culture assessments seriously. At the heart of our offer is the TALY Personality Profile – built by our team of academic researchers, data scientists and consultants to address key Australian business needs.
Exploring the Five Factor Personality
When it comes to measuring personality, there are a range of tools available to business today.
But there is only one approach that is consistently recognised by psychologists, academics and researchers to be a valid, robust and trusted approach – The Five Factor Personality Typology.
And so, that’s why we’ve built our own Five Factor Personality test as the foundation of the TALY Personality Profile.
The Five Factor Personality Profile is based on the established academic convention that there are five core traits (comprised of a variety of sub-traits) that best represent our personality.





Exploring Emotional Intelligence
At work – as in all areas of life – our emotions also play a role. Our ability to use emotion effectively plays an important role in understanding our approach to work, our motivations, our interpersonal skills and our general emotional control.
So, the TALY Personality Profile also includes a measurement of Emotional Intelligence.
To do this, we’ve leveraged the Salovey and Mayer model, building our own version based on the latest academic thinking
