Challenge
This young man has to navigate life with more than your average barriers. He has two previous convictions and has worked hard to put those behind him and work on reforming himself. However he is still out of work and feels like there is limited support to keep momentum with him to feel he can make progress on his work situation given his options are much more limited than others. Solution GEN-b has provided 4 1:1 mentorship sessions and a pioneering neuroscience backed psychometric testing experience to help with the deeply rooted, non conscious frictions he is facing to better understand himself both explicitly and implicitly, and how to navigate his future pathway.

Testimonial
Going through the Openmind assessment and debriefing was a genuinely eye-opening experience for me. It didn’t just give me a list of traits, it uncovered the difference between how I think I am and how I might actually respond on a deeper, unconscious level. That contrast was sometimes surprising but it helped me understand myself in a much more honest and balanced way.
The debriefing session with B was very supportive and engaging. B helped me explore why certain differences might exist between my conscious thought and my instinctive reactions. Given my previous experiences, I found it reassuring that there was no ‘right or wrong’ just a clear picture of what’s going on beneath the surface.
Since doing it, I’ve been much more aware of how my automatic responses might affect my decisions, relationships and even my confidence. It’s encouraged me to work on aligning my inner instincts with my conscious values and to build on my strengths while addressing the areas I’d overlooked.
Overall, it’s given me clarity and an understanding of myself that I really needed to see as I move forward with my life. This experience has helped me with practical insight and mentorship that I can apply to the choices I make in both my personal and professional life.
