What JPTI does for your practice

Most career tools sort people into vague personality labels. JPTI is different. It maps clients into 21 Job Passion Types that describe how they want to create value at work, not just how they act in a group.

As a coach, JPTI helps you:

  • Get to the heart of “what do you really want to do?” in one session instead of five.

  • Turn fuzzy career frustration into clear options and next steps.

  • Build coaching plans around real strengths and motivators, not generic traits.

You get a shared language for passion and fit. Your client gets a practical way to judge which roles and paths are worth pursuing.

Why coaches choose JPTI over generic assessments

JPTI was built for career and workforce decisions, not for party tricks or team icebreakers.

With JPTI you can:

  • Increase self-awareness fast. Clients see why some roles drain them and others feel natural.

  • Connect passion to roles. Each type is tied to real-world work. Not just “you’re an extrovert” but “you thrive where you can evangelize, pitch, and persuade,” or “you do your best work when you can design systems and improve processes.”

  • Reduce churn in coaching. When clients see themselves accurately in the report, trust goes up and they stick with the process.

You are no longer trying to translate a personality code into job decisions. The tool already speaks the career language your clients care about.

How JPTI helps you serve different kinds of clients

  • Career changers:
    Help them stop bouncing between job boards and actually decide which paths deserve a real test.

  • Early-career clients and students:
    Give them a way to narrow choices before they waste years in the wrong major, internship, or first job.

  • High-potential professionals:
    Clarify what kind of work will stretch them in the right direction so promotions and role changes are smarter, not random.

  • Stuck or burned-out clients:
    Separate “I hate work” from “I’m in the wrong kind of work.” JPTI gives them language for what needs to change.

Go beyond skills.
Coach to connect what
they actually want to do.

Groups and individuals who tap into what fires them up
progress is faster and stick with coaching longer.

Clarity Comes First. Passion Shows the Way.

What JPTI could look like inside your coaching process

The happiest people don’t focus on titles, they follow their heart and find professions their passionate about.

Intake

You send a custom JPTI link before the first deep-dive session

Debrief

In session, you walk through their top Job Passion Types, stress points, and work preferences. You connect the report to their current role, past wins, and pain points.

Design

Together you identify “good fit” roles, industries, or paths and what needs to change in their current situation.

Action plan

You turn the insight into concrete next steps. Skill gaps to address, conversations to have, roles to target, experiments to run.

This keeps your sessions focused on decisions and action. The assessment does the heavy lifting on discovery.

Business value for your practice

  • Differentiate your practice. You offer a structured, passion-first method instead of generic “career coaching.”

  • Increase perceived value. A named assessment plus a clear debrief process moves you out of the “I’m just paying for conversations” zone.

  • Create repeatable offers. JPTI makes it easy to build standard programs and pricing instead of inventing everything from scratch.

The foundation of every meaningful career
isn’t skills or personality—it’s passion!

Careers Built Without Passion Fail.

If You Don’t Start With Passion, You Start Wrong.

For decades, companies and colleges used skills tests and personality tools to steer careers. The result? Millions stuck in jobs they don’t care about. Gallup says nearly 70% of workers are disengaged. Why? Because nobody asked the deeper question: What drives you? The JPTI™ starts there, uncovering passion and values first, so every role, career plan, or culture fit builds on what keeps people engaged for the long run.

The foundation of every meaningful career
isn’t skills or personality—it’s passion!

Skills fade.
Job titles change.
Passion lasts.

Building a company or a career plan?
Start Where Fulfillment Begins

Starting with skills and personality assessments may describe a person, but they don’t reveal what will keep them motivated. That’s why so many careers stall and so many companies struggle with retention. The JPTI™ flips the model—identifying the passions and values that drive real commitment. For individuals, it means clarity and confidence. For organizations, it means better alignment, stronger engagement, and long-term results.

70% of employees say their sense of purpose is defined by their work

Only 32% of U.S. employees are engaged at work; 18% are actively disengaged.

4x – 5x benefits from passion

Workers who feel a strong sense of purpose at work are 4x more likely to report higher engagement and 5x more likely to stay with a company long-term.

53% of U.S. workers admit they are “not engaged” or “actively disengaged.”

Because their jobs don’t align with what matters to them. Starting with passion/strengths massively improves engagement.

What's impacting happiness in every career stage? Job Passion

When you start with passion, every decision
from majors to career pivots to encore acts
becomes clearer, smarter, and deeply satisfying.
