Start with Insights Discovery: An Introduction. It gives the team a shared language for why one person wants a quick decision, another wants more data and a third wants to hear everyone. Once that shared language is in place, Insights Discovering Team Effectiveness deepens collaboration through real work situations. Read more about team training.
Yes. Insights Discovery is widely used in team development. We offer Team Wheel analyses – a visual and practical framework that shows team strengths, communication styles and areas for development.
We work with the leadership team as a team: the Insights Team Wheel shows which perspectives are over-represented around the table and which are missing. A leadership team with similar styles reaches agreement quickly, but tends to see the same things and overlook the same risks. Once the blind spots are visible, we agree together how to bring the missing perspectives into decisions. Read more about leadership training.
Yes. Discovering Leadership Effectiveness is for middle managers who want to understand how their behaviour affects their team and to lead people with different styles more flexibly. We work with 1–6 leaders from the same team to discuss real situations. Read more about leadership training.
Absolutely. Many leaders use their profile to strengthen self-awareness, improve communication and lead their teams more effectively. Additional profile chapters designed specifically for leaders are available.
Yes. Although it is often used in a team context, individuals can order a profile for personal development, improving communication skills or planning their career.
For example, Insights Discovery: An Introduction for a team of 10 costs from EUR 2,200 + VAT and includes a one-day workshop (6–7 hours) and a personal Insights Discovery profile for each participant. The price depends on three things: the number of participants, the programme and its length. Participants keep their profile, so follow-on programmes cost less. We prepare an exact proposal after a short conversation about your team’s situation. Read more about team training.
In Tallinn and across Estonia, at a venue of your choice: your own premises or a training venue. Training can also be delivered virtually via Microsoft Teams. Travel outside Harju County is charged at EUR 0.50/km.
Yes – the entire process, from the evaluator to the workshops, can be delivered fully online.
Team programmes (Insights Discovery: An Introduction, Insights Discovering Team Effectiveness, Discovery Full Circle, Insights Discovering Sales Effectiveness) work best with 8–16 participants and can also be run for larger groups. For events with more than 50 people we design a playful custom session. Leadership programmes (Discovering Leadership Effectiveness, Self-Aware Leader) are delivered to a small group of 1–6 leaders from the same team, so we can work on real situations. Read more about training for sales teams on our Sales training page.
A half-day workshop lasts 3–4 hours and a one-day workshop 6–7 hours; a two-day programme is also available. Before the training, each participant completes a 15–20-minute online questionnaire, which is used to create their personal profile. For teams, a one-day workshop is the most common choice: it leaves time both to understand one’s own profile and to discuss the team’s collaboration through real work situations. On a longer development path, we schedule follow-on programmes so that the shared language has time to become part of everyday work in between.
Yes. Training is delivered in English or Estonian and works well for international teams where not everyone speaks Estonian. The questionnaire and personal profile are available in many languages, including English and Estonian. Each participant can read their profile in the language most natural to them, while the workshop runs in the team’s shared working language. Some terms and materials are in English as part of the international programme – this keeps the model precise and the understanding shared. Where needed, we explain them during the training.
Contact us at ertti.hermanson@kvadrantkoolitus.ee or +372 51 19 878. We start with a short conversation in person, by phone or on Teams to understand your team’s situation, goals and participants. Based on that, we send a proposal with the recommended programme, length and price. Once confirmed, participants receive a link to the questionnaire and their personal profiles are ready before the training day.
Insights Discovery is a personality profiling tool based on Carl Gustav Jung’s psychological type theory. It uses four colour energies — Fiery Red, Sunshine Yellow, Earth Green and Cool Blue — to help people better understand themselves and others.
Kvadrant Koolitus OÜ is the official Insights Discovery® partner in Estonia. Trainer Ertti Hermanson is the only licensed Insights Discovery practitioner in Estonia (Insights Discovery Licensed Practitioner, accreditation valid from 19 September 2025).
Each colour represents a distinct behavioural style:
Fiery Red – direct and results-oriented
Sunshine Yellow – sociable and enthusiastic
Earth Green – supportive and caring
Cool Blue – analytical and precise
Nearly everyone uses a blend of all four energies. Typically, one or two tend to be more dominant.
You complete an online questionnaire (the evaluator). Based on your answers, a personal profile is generated that highlights your behavioural preferences and development opportunities.
No. Although all three are personality assessment tools, Insights Discovery focuses on colour energies and is more directly based on Jung’s original theory than MBTI or DiSC.

Yes. Insights Discovery is based on the psychological research of Carl Jung, and its statistical quality has been validated by the University of Westminster. It has a strong evidence base and proven reliability, which is why many leading global organisations — including the NHS, Amazon and IBM — use the methodology successfully.
Team Wheels is the team effectiveness model that shows each team member’s position within the Insights Discovery framework. It helps create a shared understanding of how the team functions and where there is room for development.
We will send you a personal link to complete the online evaluator. Once it is finished, you will receive your profile in PDF format during the training.
Completing the evaluator typically takes 15–20 minutes. It consists of 25 sections, each with four statements. In every section, you choose the statement that sounds most like you and the one that sounds least like you. The evaluator is available in Estonian and, on request, also in other languages.
Yes. You can share your profile to encourage better mutual understanding among colleagues or team members.
Your profile will remain accessible to you at all times. The profile itself does not expire, but many people choose to retake the evaluator every 3–5 years, as personal growth and life changes can influence the results.
We provide optional virtual coaching, online learning materials and tailored workshops to help you get the most value from your profile.
There is no official free version. Some colour-based tests found online may look similar, but they are not scientifically validated like the official Insights Discovery profiles.
Kvadrant Koolitus is a licensed distributor of the Workplace Big Five Profile™ in Estonia. We use the profile in recruitment, role-fit assessment, leadership coaching and personal development. We include the price in the proposal, as it depends on the number of candidates and the scope of feedback sessions. Read more on our Workplace Big Five page.
The Workplace Big Five is a science-based personality profile that describes typical behaviour and preferences in the workplace. It helps explain how people interact, respond to pressure, collaborate, set goals, and adapt to change at work.
The profile is used to support self-awareness, leadership development, and understanding of collaboration styles. It also supports recruitment, career planning, and role fit decisions by helping organisations align people, roles, and expectations more effectively.
No. The profile does not evaluate or label people, but describes behavioural preferences. Each trait can be supportive in some situations and require more conscious management in others.
The Workplace Big Five is based on the internationally recognised Big Five personality model, widely regarded as one of the most reliable frameworks for understanding work-related behaviour.
The questions are designed to limit socially desirable responding. As the focus is on preferences and typical behaviour rather than ideal answers, honest and spontaneous responses produce the most accurate and useful results.
