When you complete the Inventory, you receive a private folio — a document that names your archetype, profiles your facets, and maps your path of development. Here is exactly what it contains.
Six sections. One private document. Always free.
The archetype your responses most fully embody. Named with its full calling, tagline, and signature — the sentence that most precisely captures your leadership identity.
Each of the nine archetypes carries a unique methodology for creating change, building community, and transmitting wisdom. Your primary archetype is not a personality type — it is a role in a tradition.
The archetype that rounds out your leadership repertoire. Where your primary archetype names your calling, the secondary names the mode you shift into when the moment demands it.
No leader operates from a single archetype. The secondary is the complement — the instrument you reach for when the primary is not sufficient.
Your scored disposition across the three facets of your primary archetype. Each is scored from 0–100.
The facet profile reveals not just what archetype you embody, but where within it your leadership draws its depth. Two leaders with the same primary archetype can have radically different facet profiles — and radically different approaches.
Four specific practices your archetype is called to cultivate. These are not generic leadership tips — they are drawn from the tradition your archetype represents.
Practices are the daily habits, rituals, and disciplines that move you from knowing your archetype to embodying it. Each practice is specific, actionable, and rooted in the historical lineage of your calling.
The places where your archetype tends to get stuck, over-rely on its strengths, or miss what the moment requires. Named without judgment — as invitations, not indictments.
Every archetype carries a shadow. The Visionary who loses touch with the ground. The Strategist who trusts no one. The Healer who cannot ask for help. Naming the edge is the first step to working it.
Historical figures from the Black tradition who embodied your archetype at its most fully realized. A reminder that you are not discovering something new — you are taking your place in something old.
The BLI is grounded in the premise that Black leadership has a tradition — not a monolith, but a living archive of methodologies. Your exemplars are the ones who came before you in your mode of influence.
Your folio is delivered as a branded PDF — formatted, typeset, and yours to keep.
For leaders who want to go deeper. Five additional sections that transform the folio from a naming document into a development instrument.
An 8-page written portrait of your archetype as expressed through your specific response pattern. Not a generic description — written to reflect the particular shape of your scores.
A structured plan for the next three months that maps your growth edges to specific, time-bound actions. Organized by facet so you can focus where your profile calls for depth.
A visual and written comparison of your facet scores against the typical pattern for your archetype — showing where you align with and diverge from the modal expression of your calling.
Ten books, essays, and speeches selected specifically for your archetype. Not a generic leadership reading list — a curated canon from the tradition your archetype inhabits.
A printable one-page worksheet for turning your folio insights into a personal leadership statement, a set of commitments, and a quarterly review practice.
