What exactly is MapsTell®?

MapsTell® is a behavioural insight tool that turns your behaviour into a visual map. Instead of reading long descriptions, you can see your communication style, strengths, and blind spots on a colourful PersonalMap®. It helps individuals and teams understand themselves and each other in a fast and practical way.

​

How accurate is the MapsTell® questionnaire?

MapsTell® uses a forced-choice, instinctive questionnaire. You cannot pick neutral or “nice” answers — you must choose what feels most and least true. This reveals natural behaviour, making the results highly accurate and relatable.

​

What makes MapsTell® different from DiSC®, Insights Discovery®, MBTI®, or the Enneagram?

While other tools provide written profiles, MapsTell® gives you a visual map that shows how your behaviour is experienced by others. It is more practical, more engaging, and easier to apply in daily life. It is also the only tool that combines behaviour, perception, and visual storytelling in one system.

​

Who is MapsTell® suitable for?

Anyone. Individuals, couples, parents, teenagers, teams, leaders, schools, and organisations. If you communicate with other human beings, MapsTell® will help you understand yourself and others better.

​

How does MapsTell® help in the workplace?

It improves communication, teamwork, leadership, performance, conflict management, and customer service. HR and Learning & Development teams use it for onboarding, training, team building, and leadership pathways. 

 

Can MapsTell® be used for couples?

Yes, beautifully. Couples receive two PersonalMaps® and a “Navigating Us” session that gently shows how each partner communicates, processes emotions, and reacts under pressure. It creates understanding without blame.

​

How long does it take to complete the MapsTell® questionnaire?

It normally takes 15–20 minutes. Results are generated instantly, and your PersonalMap® and RouteGuide® are available within 24 hours

 

What do I receive when I buy a PersonalMap®?

You receive:
• Your full PersonalMap®
• Your RouteGuide® (personalised behavioural explanation)
• Your place in the World of Difference®
• A one-hour guided video explaining how to read your map
 

​Is MapsTell® scientifically based?

Yes. MapsTell® is built on DISC behavioural theory, validated communication research, and a forced-choice psychometric design.

It is used in companies, schools, governments, hospitals, and universities worldwide.

​

What happens in a MapsTell® workshop?

Workshops are interactive, visual, and fun. Participants physically walk on the giant floor map, explore behavioural zones, and learn how to adapt communication. Activities involve storytelling, practical exercises, and real-world scenarios. 

 

Can MapsTell® support schools and students?

Yes. Schools use MapsTell® for Grade 10–12 career guidance, communication skills, study dynamics, classroom relationships, and leadership programmes. It helps teachers understand their learners better and reduces behavioural friction.

​

Do you offer MapsTell® for recruitment or hiring?

MapsTell® is excellent for understanding communication and behaviour, but it is not a hiring filter. Recruitment agencies and managers use it to support onboarding, team fit, and leadership coaching, not to accept or reject candidates. 

​

Can MapsTell® be used for conflict resolution?

Yes. By showing how people behave under pressure, the tool quickly identifies misunderstandings and triggers. It helps teams and couples communicate with more empathy and fewer assumptions.

 

Is my information confidential?

Yes. Your questionnaire results and PersonalMap® are private and shared only with you and your facilitator. MapsTell® follows strict ethical and data protection standards.
