A quick behavioral read produces an initial score on Initiative, Follow-Through, and Learnability. Treat it as a hypothesis, never a verdict — the starting signal, not the proof.
Output: an initial CQ read per person.
Real follow-through is measured under escalating pressure — micro-commitments, pre-work, attendance, and self-ratings across 7-, 14-, and 21-day challenges. That’s 40+ datapoints in six weeks. The law of large numbers stabilizes the signal, and the gap between what someone says and what they do becomes as diagnostic as the behavior itself.
If they don’t show up here, they won’t show up when it matters.
You get a Commitment Map and a blunt leader debrief that cuts through excuses. You see who’s investment-ready, who to coach and in which signal, and who to wait on — so you invest fast and without regret.
Output: the CQ Heatmap + a decision on every person. See the demo →
Three observable behaviors, weighted into a single score you can act on — measured from what people do, not what they say. New to the terms? Start with the glossary.
A CQ result reflects observed behavior during a defined window and is valid for twelve months. Anyone assessed receives their own result and may request re-assessment at any time.
Most tools rely on self-report, which is easy to game — you can pass without ever touching the wheel. Prove treats self-report as a hypothesis and then pressure-tests it against observed behavior. You see how they actually handle the road when it gets rough.
CQ results may be used to identify coaching focus areas, allocate development investment, design team interventions, and support individual self-directed growth. CQ results may not be used, in whole or in part, as a factor in hiring, candidate screening, termination, demotion, discipline, compensation, or as a gate on promotion eligibility.
