TAIS Assessment
The Most Sophisticated Performance Enhancement Assessment of its Kind.
The Attentional and Interpersonal Style (TAIS) inventory measures the ways that individuals concentrate and interact with others; those concentration skills and interpersonal characteristics are the building blocks of performance.
TAIS does not measure optimal performance; by identifying the drivers and limiters of an individual’s own performance, it predicts how to help the individual achieve optimal performance. By understanding these predictors of performance, we develop a plan to improve specific mental skills, thereby enhancing performance and reducing the potential for performance mistakes.
TAIS is used to help people develop leadership abilities and perform under pressure in sports, military, and business environments.
Specialized Performance Profiling
The reality is, improvement starts with awareness. Through TAIS you'll gain invaluable insights and recommendations that can reshape your approach to success.
Kate has worked with world class athletes around the globe utilizing TAIS assessment to help them achieve higher levels of performance. Her expertise in assessment profiling was called upon when she worked with the top prospects in the NHL's Anaheim Ducks organization, to help the players develop and help the coaches learn how best to teach and communicate with them.

How Does TAIS Work?
TAIS is an easily self-administered instrument comprising 144 items. Each item describes a thought or behavior, or a general statement – you are asked to choose the response that most closely applies to you. Once you have finished the inventory, it will be analyzed by a computer database and the results will be used by Kate Allgood, a TAIS-certified coach, to predict how you will perform and develop a highly individualized performance development program.
What Evidence Is There That TAIS Works?
TAIS has been used by professional organizations & Olympic teams over the past 48 years; including teams in the U.S., Canada, Australia, Italy, Singapore, and Spain, and with individual Olympians in numerous other countries. The leadership assessment tool has been translated into 11 languages.
Developed by Dr Robert Nideffer in 1976, TAIS is supported by his 25+ years of research exploring the relationship between an individual’s concentration skills, their level of comfort or emotional arousal, and their ability to perform in high pressure situations.
