How GET2 works
GET2 is a self assessment test that asks you to decide if you tend to agree or disagree with statements that are designed to identify various aspects of your enterprising tendencies. These are indicated by testing whether you are highly motivated, whether you have a high need for achievement, whether you have a high need for autonomy, whether you have a creative tendency, whether you are able to take calculated risks and whether you have an internal locus of control. There is much academic debate about the most important characteristics of enterprising people due to the wide range of the many descriptions of entrepreneurial people. The main problems in the psychological testing of entrepreneurs relate to the varying definitions of the entrepreneur, the numerous characteristics attributed to entrepreneurs and uncertainty about the significance of entrepreneurial characteristics. The literature review undertaken to support this test suggested an emphasis on these key characteristics and the test is built on this.
Decide if you tend to agree or disagree with the statements
Many people dislike tests that require you to decide if tend to agree or disagree with statements, i.e. a forced choice, when you might think that you are somewhere in the middle. You usually know, however, what your tendency is and what you might usually do - and this is how you must answer. It is important to realise that there are no right or wrong answers in this test. Overall, it should take you about ten minutes to complete and the resulting report will give you an idea of your enterprising potential. For each statement click the answer which best expresses your views. Answer quickly and honestly since this gives the best picture of yourself as you are now. The test is not definitive and it should be used only as an educational aid for helping you develop you thinking about enterprise. GET2 provides an interpretation of your results. If you are not happy with your test results, personal transformation is an open door! If you want to be enterprising you are half-way there.
