The Gifts Compass Inventory® (GCI)

The GCI Avaliação

The Gifts Compass Inventory® (GCI) is a simple, insightful self-awareness tool that reveals your strongest natural gifts—the ways of thinking, relating, and working that feel most authentic and effortless to you. Used by psychologists for more than a decade, the GCI is now available to the public. It is a carefully validated instrument grounded in the remarkable work of Carl Jung, the pioneering psychologist who introduced the concepts of introversion and extraversion.

The GCI is the first validated instrument in a century to express Jung’s original model of eight psychological types. While other 16-type systems were later adaptations of his work, only the GCI stays true to these foundational eight dispositions. We don’t reduce you to a personality label or a number. Instead, we introduce the eight types as living gifts—your natural aptitudes and the ways you are uniquely designed to engage with the world.

Your natural aptitudes, or gifts, can lead you to the life you were born for. Whatever life path you choose, using your best gifts will make the journey easier, happier, and more successful.

The Gifts Compass Inventory® (GCI) is a simple self-awareness assessment that profiles your best gifts. Your natural aptitudes, or gifts, can lead you to the work, and the life, you were born for.

Whether you’re exploring new opportunities or simply seeking greater clarity and confidence, the GCI provides a personalized pathway toward doing what you love and contributing in the ways you naturally thrive.

Used by psychologists and coaches for more than a decade, The GCI is now available for public use. it is a meticulously validated instrument founded on the astonishing insights of psychologist Carl Jung who coined the terms “introversion” and “extraversion.”

The GCI is the first validated instrument in 100 years to articulate Jung’s original model of psychological types. Many other 16-type instruments have been derived from his work, but only the GCI accurately depicts his original 8 types.

The people who know Jung’s work best, trained Jungian Analysts, have widely endorsed the GCI.

What People Are Saying About The GCI

Gifts Compass tem o mérito excepcional de se manter fiel à intenção original de Jung de vincular a teoria dos tipos psicológicos ao processo de individuação. É uma contribuição brilhante para o campo da teoria e prática tipológica. De todas as tentativas de aplicar a teoria dos tipos psicológicos a modelos de aconselhamento e coaching, esta é de longe a melhor.

Murray Stein,

Ex-presidente da Associação Internacional de Psicologia Analítica (Psicologia Junguiana)

O Gifts Compass oferece uma ferramenta altamente desenvolvida e teoricamente bem fundamentada que permite uma compreensão da tipologia muito mais precisa do que outros modelos tipológicos. . . . Especialmente a ligação com as teorias de Jung sobre o processo de individuação fornece um modelo dinâmico que é extremamente útil ao se considerar os processos de desenvolvimento.

Senhor Berg

Presidente da Associação Internacional de Psicologia Analítica (Psicologia Junguiana)

I have worked with CEOs and other organizational leaders for over 40 years and used a variety of assessments to help them along their developmental journey. Nothing compares to the Gifts Compass Inventory (GCI) for revealing the underlying patterns for both strengths and shadow. The GCI offers insights into how to help them develop and mature as persons and leaders in ways no other instruments have.

Norman Wolfe

Consultora de Desenvolvimento Organizacional, Autora de "The Living Organization"

In the Gifts Compass, I have found a highly creative and differentiated advancement of C.G. Jung's original ideas on psychological types. Being an image-based, user-friendly model, it appeals to the soul and the imagination, to professionals and laypersons alike. Unlike other models I have worked with, it avoids the sense of "boxing in'' or stereotyping as it illustrates unrestricted type preferences and the possibility for individuals to hold preferences that seem contradictory or paradoxical. Perhaps most critically, the Gifts Compass remains true to Jung's idea of the individuation process, reminding us that psychological type does not constitute the personality as a whole, and that in-depth work with types necessarily involves Page 4 of 13 one's active engagement with the realities of psychological one-sidedness, the shadow, and the unconscious.

The GCI is a powerful instrument both in assessment and treatment. It is a dynamic tool and one can take the GCI along the analytical journey to see the changes within the psyche and also in relationships in the outer world.

Gunilla Midboe

Psicólogo Analítico, Suécia

The GCI Provides a very clear overview of a person’s psychological makeup, in terms of types, on both the conscious and unconscious sides of the psyche. The overview is quite helpful for understanding the tension of opposites at work in the client’s individuation.

Vanessa Prins

Psicólogo Analítico, Bélgica

The GCI provides important insights into how to develop one’s natural talents and how to find greater fulfillment in life, both professionally and personally. It is a holistic tool that enables a clearer understanding of the need for personal growth at different stages of life. I love using the Gifts Compass with my coaching clients on their personal journeys of discovery.

Magdalena Poradzka

Coach de Liderança, Polônia

“The GCI is extremely valuable for working with clients, since it accurately characterizes their strengths and flaws, preferences and dislikes, which reflect the way they typically relate with themselves and the world at large. All of this is precious information for practitioners and clients during the journey of self knowledge and self-development.”

Pedro Mendes

Analista junguiano, Suíça

“During these challenging times, I have found GCI to be a useful and objectively nonthreatening way to describe a subjects’ psychological typology with the particular focus on projection and shadow or opposing typologies. This allows for a natural segue into a discussion of individuation. Grounded in Jungian Analytical Psychology, I highly recommend GCI to anyone who would wish to understand their own restlessness and gifts as well as how to effectively apply this knowledge to clinical work.”

Kathleen Moreau

M.A. , Diplomate – Jungian Analyst – C. G. Jung Institute, Küsnacht, Switzerland

"The GCI provides important insights into how to develop one’s natural talents and how to find greater fulfillment in life."

"Gifts Compass has the outstanding merit of staying close to Jung’s original intention of linking psychological type theory to the individuation process. It is a brilliant contribution to the field of typological theory and practice. Of all the attempts to apply psychological type theory to models of counseling and coaching, this is by far the best."

Murray Stein, PhD

Author of Jung’s Map of the Soul; former president of the International Association of Analytical Psychology and the International School of Analytical Psychology
