Product updates

When you log in to Inspire in PI2, you’ll see an entirely redesigned experience. View your behavioral pattern, or search for an employee’s pattern, right from the home screen.

Select a person’s name, and you’ll land on their “person” page. From here, you’ll find Inspire data organized by three distinct pages:

• About: View a person’s Snapshot and Behavioral Report.
• Relationship: View your relationship data with an individual.
• Development: View a person’s self-development guides, plus management tips to help them grow.

Note: Any employee behavioral data you had in legacy PI will carry over to PI2. You can view these insights at a glance from the “Manage Employees” tab, or you can search for a specific co-worker.

Biggest changes in PI2

Employee visibility permissions work differently

In legacy, you could limit access to a specific employee’s behavioral data by putting that employee in a restricted folder. However, this created data management issues—particularly for organizations with hundreds (or thousands) of employees.

With PI2, we wanted to reduce admin headaches and make it easier for individual contributors to access tools like the Relationship Guide. To encourage ease of use, we’ve made employee BA permissions visible to all users in Inspire.

We know some clients would prefer to limit employee visibility of BA data. In the coming months, we will be adding the ability to customize these permissions, so you can personalize them to your liking.

The “Synthesis” has been sunsetted

In the legacy experience, the Synthesis represented the average of the Self and Self-Concept, but offered little interpretive meaning on its own. 

In PI2, we’ve retired the Synthesis. Doing so allows us to deliver better functionality for the measures that do matter—the Self and Self-Concept—and make Inspire reporting more intuitive.

Relationship Guides have a new interface

Relationship Guides are foundational to Inspire. To make them easier to access, we’ve included a “Relationship Guide” search function right on the homepage. Enter two names, click view, and you’ll immediately see their relationship details—including pattern overlay, strengths, and cautions.

“M Score” is receiving a name change

In the legacy experience, the M Score represented the number of adjectives a person selected during the PI Behavioral Assessment.

At the time, we allowed people to select as many (or as few) adjectives as they wanted. As a best practice, however, our Science team recommended selecting at least six adjectives to ensure the BA had enough data to provide an accurate readout. For leaders formally trained in PI, the M Score served as a useful tool for understanding when exactly individuals should consider retaking the assessment. For newer clients or those not formally trained, however, M Score was a confusing name that didn’t mean much.

For Inspire in PI2, we have retained the M Score but changed its name to a much more intuitive descriptor: “Number of adjectives selected.” We hope this change allows you to use M Score with greater clarity and confidence.

Please note: While M Score has some intrinsic value in Inspire, it isn’t a validated measure for hiring decisions. As a result, we’ve sunsetted M Score from PI Hire.
