Ask Wonderlic can help employees and managers navigate situations such as:
Moment | How they'd start | What they get |
Preparing for a 1-on-1 | “My manager is asking for more from me in this area. How do I get out in front of her concerns, and what strengths can I lean on?" | A strength to lean on and a concrete way to get ahead of the concern, with context on why it matters in their role. |
Processing tough feedback | “My manager said I need to be more organized, what do my results say?” | Puts the feedback in context, helping employees understand what may be driving it and whether it reflects a real tendency or a perception gap. Reframes the feedback as an opportunity for growth and suggests a practical next step. |
Setting development goals | “What's one thing I could work on that would make the biggest difference?” | An attribute that's both critical to their role and an effort area, with a realistic micro-action |
Starting a new role | “I'm starting a new role as an account manager. What should I know about what it'll ask of me?” | A clear picture of where the new role will feel natural and where it will stretch them, so they can build strategies early instead of figuring it out the hard way. |
Taking on a stretch assignment | “I'm about to lead our sales kickoff for the first time.” | A prep plan covering which parts will feel natural and which will take deliberate effort. Strategies for the hard parts, grounded in what comes naturally. |
Working through a peer dynamic | “My coworker and I have different communication styles. He is more direct, I am more diplomatic. What could I do to help us work together on this project?” | Concrete suggestions for adjusting their approach, grounded in their own attributes. What to flex, what to anchor, how to read the other style. |
Manager reflecting on their leadership style | "One of my direct reports shuts down when I give feedback. What might I be doing that contributes to that reaction?" | Helps the manager understand how their natural communication and leadership style may be affecting the conversation. Highlights potential blind spots, explains how their approach may be perceived by others, and suggests practical adjustments to improve future interactions. |
