About this reflection

Each score is the average of four ratings on a 1–5 scale. Warmth averages friendly, warm, good-natured, and sincere. Competence averages competent, confident, capable, and skillful. There is no combined influence score.

Items, response-scale endpoints, and averaging approach adapted from Cuddy et al. (2009), Stereotype content model across cultures, Appendix A. The original research studied societal perceptions of groups, not this professional self-assessment. The reflection on status is also informed by Alison Fragale’s Likeable Badass, which uses warmth and assertiveness.

This adapted self-reflection is not a validated assessment or an Influence Index™ result. Scores are not compared with population benchmarks, and differences are not tests of statistical significance.
