One Assessment.

Your Mission:
You’re responsible for building a high-performing, low-turnover team. Resumes blur together, interviews can be rehearsed, and training is expensive when the fit is wrong.

The Problem:
Most hiring screens for experience and skills—but ignores the engine that drives performance: core passion and values. When passion and role don’t match, you get disengagement, quiet quitting, and churn.

The Guide (That’s Us):
JPTI™ Workforce Edition is a concise assessment and role-fit framework used by forward-thinking employers and coaches to predict where people will thrive. We pair empathy for people with a practical, data-driven approach you can trust.

The Plan (Simple 3 Steps):

  1. Assess – Candidates and employees complete a fast online JPTI.

  2. Match – See instant alignment scores against your role profiles and culture values.

  3. Decide & Develop – Make passion-first hiring calls, then tailor onboarding and coaching using the individual’s JPTI insights along with any of the traditional assessment you like (DISC, Motivators, EIQ, Critical Thinking, Sales IQ and more.)

How to Hire for Passion—and Finally Solve Turnover

Keep hiring on experience alone and you risk more mis-hires, fragmented teams and stalled momentum.

Don’t start with what you can do.
Start with what energizes you. That’s the foundation.

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 what motivates employees, you make better calls on placement, coaching, and internal moves. Results improve and retention follows.

JPTI is the Missing Piece to the Engagement Puzzle

Most assessments profile how someone works.
JPTI reveals why they work. It surfaces professional passions and values so you can predict performance, culture fit, and long-term engagement.

Don’t wait for the last interview to assess core values fit. Fast-track best-fit candidates the day they apply.

Thrive Beyond Skills
Skills land the job. Passion accelerates a career. Staff don’t settle for stuck or dead ends. Starting them on a path fueled by their passions keeps them energized and engaged, not looking for ‘next’.

Executive Leaders

It identifies the types of job functions and workflow processes a person is most naturally energized by; referred to as “Job Passion Types.” These insights are intended to support career fulfillment, team alignment, role engagement, and workplace satisfaction.

The JPTI does not assess personality, mental health, cognitive ability, or protected characteristics such as age, race, gender, religion, or disability. It has been developed with a specific emphasis on job function alignment and does not make value judgments about an individual’s suitability or capability.

All information provided through the JPTI is confidential and used exclusively for the stated purpose of supporting better-fit employment and advancement decisions. For additional information, refer to JPTI Assessment Terms and Disclaimer.
