Aon’s Adaptive Employee Personality Test (ADEPT-15) is an adaptive personality test that currently evaluates 15 distinct personality traits necessary for performance success in various organizational tasks. These traits are broken down into six personality types.
ADEPT-15 blends Aon’s leadership research with the Five Factor Model to assess 15 key traits. Its adaptive testing ensures accuracy and reduces bias—making it a powerful tool for hiring, talent development, and succession planning.
The first three styles speak to internal motivations and one’s efforts. These cover preferences, attitudes, and approaches to work within an individual’s agency to control.




The second set of three styles focused on how people approach their feelings and manage their connections with others. These styles are communal in nature and cover preferences, attitudes, and approaches to dealing with people and emotions.






Early Insights

Team Fit & Effectiveness
Match individual work styles with team needs to boost collaboration and assess team fit
ADEPT-15 helps recruiters understand a candidate’s personal and team-oriented work styles, making it easier to assess fit for the role. By comparing with traits of high performers in similar roles, it supports faster, more accurate hiring decisions.
Based on what work styles are required as per the changes in the working environment in the organization or any role change, the knowledge of the styles of working that would be required at the same time will be crucial to engage in targeted learning and development.
High Potentials identification: With the consistent performance measurement, there needs to be ways to incorporate the potential measurement as well. With this tool, we can diagnose if an individual has the drive, openness to change, and team-building capabilities or not.
