The workshop is 60 minutes. Sometimes 90 if there's room for the conversation to breathe. It's facilitated, built around a digital tool, usually with a small cohort, though it can also work one-on-one.

You'll work through a guided process designed to surface how you actually work; not your skills, not your personality, but where your energy and judgment naturally show up. During the workshop, you'll use a digital tool to move through the process and capture what emerges: your Core, Lens, Levers, and Card.

There's no test, scoring, or right answers. Just a structured way of paying attention to something you usually don't slow down enough to notice. Some of it will feel obvious. Some will make you pause. That pause is part of the point.

By the end, patterns start to surface. Not new information exactly, more like language for something you already knew but hadn't named. People often say it feels like recognition. "That's exactly how I work, I just never had words for it."

You won't be surprised by what you find. You'll be relieved that it finally has shape.

What you leave with

You leave with the Card—a reference for how you create value. It captures your core contribution in work, what comes easily, what drains you, and language you can actually use.

The Card isn't a diagnosis or a prescription. It's a reference point. Something to return to when you're preparing for an interview, starting a new role, explaining how you work to a team, or just trying to get grounded when work feels unclear.

What it's not

North isn't a personality test. It doesn't assign you a type or compare you to a population. It's not an evaluation; no one's ranking you or telling you what's wrong. And it's not career advice. It won't tell you what job to pursue.

It's simpler than that. It's 60 minutes to get clear on how you work, so that everything after—skills, roles, feedback, decisions—has a foundation to land on. And a foundation to build from. Once you understand how you create value, skills become strategic. You know what to develop, what to skip, and where what you already have will actually land.

Recognition, not judgment. Clarity, not answers.
