I've run more team assessments than I care to count. Myers-Briggs, DiSC, Insights Discovery, Predictive Index, Hogan, Strengths Finder — at various points all of them have been part of how we tried to understand our teams. The pattern was always the same. People would enjoy the workshop, share their colour or type or letter, put the profile on their desk, and three months later nothing about how the team actually worked had changed. The assessments told us who people were. They didn't tell us anything useful about how decisions were being made. Wizer is the first tool I've used that does the thing I actually wanted those assessments to do. It maps how each person makes decisions — not their personality, not their preferences, but the lens they bring when they're weighing a real call. And then it shows that mix at a team and organisational level, which is where the patterns get interesting. You can see which thinking styles dominate, which are missing entirely, and where the team is going to struggle long before the struggle shows up. The shift from personality language to decision language has changed how my teams talk about themselves. It's no longer "she's an introvert, that's why she didn't speak up." It's "we didn't have a Guardian voice in that conversation, and we missed the risk." That's a different kind of conversation. It's also a more useful one.

Before we started using Wizer, our board was making investment decisions the way we always have, a mix of evidence and gut feel from our directors. We have a diverse group but they would still often move together as one. Wizer helped to surface patterns we hadn't seen, including a tendency to defer to the same voices on the same kinds of decisions. Once we could see it, we could design around it. The Panel Strength view became a working tool, not a one-off insight. We now use it to compose committees and working groups deliberately, based on the decision in front of us rather than on who's available. The Recommendation Engine has pointed us toward voices we'd previously overlooked, which has changed our decision quality of some very significant calls that have had a big upside.

Wizer is the best Decision Intelligence tool I’ve come across, and using it across our sales and revenue team has lifted results markedly. The team is now better able to tailor their messages to key decision makers, which has made our outreach feel more targeted and effective.
