Improving a capability requires knowing your starting point. This assessment does not label you; it identifies situations, habits, and resources that help or block you. At NexoLab, the team completes it before training on the new platform.

Contents

  1. Use an assessment as a baseline.
  2. Review six dimensions of adaptability.
  3. Gather evidence in a short diary.
  4. Choose one realistic improvement.

Six observable dimensions

Rate anticipation, clarity, cognitive flexibility, emotional regulation, learning, and collaboration from 1 to 5. A 3 means inconsistent use; a 5 means consistent use supported by concrete examples.

Dimension Question
Anticipation Do I spot change before it becomes urgent?
Clarity Do I know what information is missing before acting?
Cognitive flexibility Do I revisit my first interpretation when evidence changes?
Emotional regulation Can I prioritise when I feel uncertain?
Learning Do I apply what I learn to my work?
Collaboration Do I make blockers and impacts visible?

Adaptation diary

For five days, record one situation: fact, first reaction, action, result, and next adjustment. Marta discovers that she starts urgent work before confirming the expected outcome; the diary helps her practise a three-minute clarification question first.

A manageable goal

Choose one frequent dimension and write: “In [context], I will [behaviour] to achieve [result], and I will review it on [date].” Do not try to improve everything at once.

Common Mistakes and Tips

  • Use recent examples, not the person you would like to be.
  • Measure behaviour, not comfort alone.
  • Turn “be more flexible” into an observable action.
  • Repeat the scale at the end of the course.

Exercises

Exercise 1: Personal radar

Rate the six dimensions and write one example for the highest and lowest score.

Exercise 2: Two-week goal

Write a goal with context, behaviour, result, and review date.

Solutions

A valid goal might be to summarise the objective, deferred work, and review date in writing whenever a priority changes.

Conclusion

You now have a baseline and a priority. The next module develops the mindset needed to revisit interpretations and sustain learning.
