what is this quiz for?

Here's Why I am Doing This:

👋 Hi, I'm Brad.
I've seen both sides of 'Modern Work', as both a manager and employee:
  • Teams full of smart people, slowed down by poor visibility and unclear expectations
  • Leaders who genuinely care, but end up relying on guesswork to fill strategic blindspots
  • High performers who quietly burn out because the system doesn't sustain excellence

I’ve hit burnout myself more than once. I’ve watched talented colleagues do the same. I’ve worked under leadership that was brilliant in some ways... and deeply misguided in others.

This research isn’t about proving how clever I am. It’s about learning what actually makes teams high-performing, healthy, and sustainable… and how we can design work environments where people feel valued, trusted, and motivated to do their best, not just avoid blame.

This is me. The over-achiever with an insane work ethic, that burnt out 3 times.

why a quiz?

I'm researching how modern teams handle visibility, accountability and stress.

I want to fix the problems I faced on teams that I joined, and those I managed, such as:

team visibility

Who’s working on what, what’s moving, and what’s stuck?

high-performance culture

How can managers create a team culture that employees want?

avoiding Burnout

What causes silent burnout, and how can it be avoided?

valuing team members

How do team members want to be recognized?

This research is specifically for Remote, Hybrid and Office-Based work.

I’m using the data to map patterns, share what’s working, and shape a new approach to how teams stay aligned and perform at a high level.

Who the survey is for

Take the Quiz If You Are The Following:

MANAGERS / LEADERS

If you manage or lead a team (or multiple teams).

EMPLOYEES / CONTRIBUTORS

You report to a manager, boss, executive or leader.

REMOTE, HYBRID, OR OFFICE-BASED WORKERS

As long as you work at a screen for a portion of your day (not laboring).

PART OF A TEAM

You have colleagues and a team, with a hierarchy (not working solo).

If that’s you, your perspective is exactly what I’m seeking, and I'd love for you to participate.
