Make teamwork visible

Email info@beacon-star.com to express interest. We talk through your organisation's needs and settle on what suits. Once numbers are confirmed we send an invoice, and once paid, an online code your participants use to take the assessment. No email addresses are collected, and participants use only a first name and last initial for privacy. Everyone saves their profile and brings it to a session, where the full set of profiles and cohort-level insights guide the conversation. We're happy to set up a short call first if you'd like to talk through the fit.

The Workstyle Profile is $69 AUD per person and the Leadership Bundle is $119 AUD per person. Both include the interactive course and workbook for activities and discussion. For groups of 35 or more, or whole-of-school rollouts, email info@beacon-star.com for scoped pricing. Pricing is transparent, invoiced once, with no ongoing subscription fees.

No, and the difference matters. Personality tools such as the Big Five, MBTI or DISC describe relatively stable traits. PRISM measures observable workplace behaviour: how you actually make decisions, communicate, respond to authority, handle uncertainty and pace your work when deadlines tighten or expectations differ. Because these are learned practices rather than fixed traits, your profile can shift as your role and context change, and that is by design. The framework was developed through a literature review, qualitative research with leaders in 27 countries, and multi-year scale testing with more than 3,700 leaders and professionals.

A personalised PDF report plus the interactive course and workbook. The Workstyle Profile scores you on each of the five dimensions (Power, Risk, Identity, Speed, Messaging), explains in plain language what your position means for the way you work, gives two concrete practices for each dimension, and finishes with reflection prompts you can bring to a session. The Leadership Bundle includes all of that plus your dominant and secondary leadership archetypes, with guidance on what you value, how you like to work, how you want feedback, your growth opportunities, and how others can work well with you.

Trailblazers lead with vision, Architects with process, Coaches with support, Guardians with protection, Directors with authority and Navigators with responsiveness. Your dominant archetype comes from the pattern across your five dimensions, identified through cluster analysis of profiles from around the world. No archetype is better than another, and an archetype is a lens, not a label. The report shows the strengths of your style and the situations where deliberately flexing it will serve your team better.

Yes. In schools, Year 9 and above is a common starting point for student leaders, and the language links naturally with international curricula such as the International Baccalaureate and their focus on competencies of the future and ACARA's general capabilities. Students apply it to real situations where they're working in a team: student councils, house leadership, service projects, co-curricular groups. In universities it suits student leadership programmes, colleges, international business and other global courses, and study abroad cohorts, and extensive in-class resources at both secondary and university level unpack the profiles. Many run PRISM at induction so the group starts with a shared language, and the course and workbook carry that conversation through the year.

PRISM was developed out of Boston University by a research team including David Livermore, PhD, founder of the Cultural Intelligence Center, drawing on fieldwork with more than 3,700 leaders and professionals across 27 countries between 2022 and 2025. It sits inside the Global TeamLEAD™ ecosystem, licensed exclusively through certified Master Practitioners. You can read the research brief or find more at davidlivermore.com/prism.

Assessment links are sent within two business days of payment, along with the course and workbook resources, so your team can complete the assessment, read their reports and start working with the material straight away. For whole-of-school rollouts we usually agree a launch window so all links go out together.

Yes. We're based on the Gold Coast, Australia, and deliver to schools and organisations globally over video, with in-person work available in Australia and on request elsewhere. The assessment itself runs online in any time zone.
