We can make a strong case for using FourSight. But we prefer to have our clients do it for us.

FourSight has a proven track record helping companies including Prudential, Google, Nike, Disney, HP, Kraft, IBM, DuPont, AT&T, General Motors, Pfizer, MIT, the BBC, the CBC, and the State University of New York among many others.


"FourSight helps individuals and teams improve their performance by leveraging the power of the creative process. This user friendly tool helps individuals understand not only where their preferences reside within the creative process, yet the possible performance implications of these preferences. Ultimately, this awareness helps us all on how to become stronger, more agile problem solvers in the future. The net payoff of using FourSight and the accompanying Tool Cards is increased capacity for individuals and teams tasked with solving complex organizational challenges."

"As part of a customized leadership series for a senior management team, we worked with the senior team to examine their current approach to solving problems in their region. We explored a 4-stage problem-solving model and the importance of adhering to such a model when tackling problems at the team level. We then introduced FourSight as a complimentary instrument that helped each person explore what his/her personal preferences were when it comes to problem solving."

John Hertel, Vice President ABM, Bell Canada

"FourSight helps our students grow in their problem solving capabilities. Since our students will manage billion dollar programs to buy ships, planes, and tanks for the military, the results should benefit our men and women in uniform and the American tax payer as well."

"Foursight helped us collectively apply our very diverse creative styles to accomplish our goals more effectively than we ever could have done individually. We were able to collectively harness the creative power of our organization."

Jim Little, President, West Valley Nuclear Services Company

"I was assigned to assist on a big project and had difficulty working with the consultants and the project manager. We took FourSight and everything changed: We learned the ways in which our styles were different and we were able to shift from animosity to collaboration. Once we were aware of our differences, we were able to see that we needed each other. We lost the anxiety and gained insight into how we complement each other."

HR Manager, Stelco (Hamilton, Ontario)

Other FourSight Users

"The FourSight instrument is my first choice among many. I've found that some psychological profile tools are too broad, focused too much on personalities rather than on specific team development and team communication. FourSight is more focused on how we think and process information, and the result is a successful problem-solving environment."

John Sedgwick, Principal, Managing Imaginations, Inc.

"FourSight is simple, elegant and understandable - a great way to introduce people to different thinking styles and how to profit from them."

Dave Labno Principal, Got Innovation?

"In our consulting work, we are exposed to various tools and instruments. We choose very carefully. The instruments we use have to be practical, insightful and applicable to the real world of work. FourSight exceeds our expectations in each of these areas. People instantly can relate to their problem-solving style and recognize how others attack problems differently. Most importantly, the instrument works with senior leaders and boards of directors as a tool that helps people see first hand what they could be doing differently to better tap the problem solving preferences measured by FourSight."

Anne Birmingham, President, 2Wa Consulting, Inc.

"In new product development, there is alot of emphasis on ideation. Yet team members who are not strong ideators tend to feel somehow not creative. FourSight helps empower everyone creatively and makes teams more productive."

Linda McGivern, MindGarden

"I found the on-line version to be a time saver. Participants can complete it before a session and are eager to understand their results. We also find it useful to able to sort responses by different groups, departments or levels in the organization so people can better understand their preferences and those of others."

Team Consultant, FourSight user

"For people interested in the bottom line and team performance, FourSight teaches the value of covering all four essential roles of the creative process Clarifier, Ideator, Developer and Implementer and clearly identifies the skills needed to develop though deliberate training."
