Basic Profile
The Basic Profile is a type indicator that shows the employee’s current focus and preferences. Easy to understand and written in everyday language, it is used for developing learners, employees and teams, as well as for group composition based on complementary focus areas.
The Basic Profile is a type indicator.
It provides a situational picture of where the employee puts their energy and focus at the moment.
In other words, the Basic Profile can change over time – even quite a lot – but still have a fixed core that centers on personality.
The profile tells you something about both the employee’s focus and preferences.
Now and in the long term.
One of the great advantages of the Basic Profile is that it is easy to understand.
It’s easily accessible, quick to use and written in everyday language with no foreign words or negations.
In the Basic Profile, the employee relates how she sees herself – based on what she is most or least.
Create teams – at work and at school
The profile is suitable for developing students, employees and teams.
It can also help you put together workgroups that contain the necessary focus areas that complement each other and match the demands of the tasks.
The Basic Profile is ideal for use by production schools, students, service and project staff. For example, to put together study or work groups.
The profile consists of the modules:
- Person Profile: Uncovers how you perceive your own behavior
- Group Profile: Shows what the team’s overall profile looks like
- Ego Profile: Assessing what you think others think of you.

The Basic Profile is based on the Focus model
As well as the Focus Profile, the Basic Profile is based on the Focus model. This means that it contains the four focus areas Integrator, Founder, Result and Developer focus.
All departments and teams must have employees who together represent the four different focus areas in order to function optimally.
However, no employee can focus on all four areas at once.
Instead, we each have our own strengths that we prefer to use in our work and in collaboration with others.
Typically, we have one or two focus areas that dominate, while the others take a back seat.
Therefore, it’s important to know the strengths and weaknesses of each employee in the department or team in order to get the most out of the collaboration.
