I'm Trent Cotton. I built the FutHRist Team Scoring Workbook after seeing the same gap on every leadership team I've worked with.
Everyone knows their own strengths. Nobody can tell you whether the team has a single strategic analyst in the room, or whether three people are strong in exactly the same spot while an entire mindset goes uncovered.
Most HR leadership teams have never once looked at themselves collectively. This fixes that in fifteen minutes.
How It Works
Your team takes my free FutHRist Self-Assessment, based on my book, The FutHRist: The 5 Mindsets of the Future HR Pro. You enter each person's five mindset scores, and the workbook builds the rest automatically:
- A team radar chart overlaying every member, with the team average as the headline
- A gap heatmap showing who is low where, instantly
- Tier distribution across your team, from Traditional Operator to FutHRist-Ready
- Mindset coverage, flagging any mindset where no one on the team has real strength
- A comparison radar with dropdown selectors: pick any two or three team members and the chart updates instantly, with the team average as the reference line
No formulas to touch. No macros, so it works in Mac Excel and Excel Online without security warnings. Supports up to 20 team members. Fully branded, presentation-ready charts you can drop straight into a leadership meeting.
Your engagement dashboard shows individuals. Your HR leadership team operates as a system. This workbook shows you the system.
This workbook can help.
Who This Is For
CHROs, HR VPs, and directors leading a team. If you're working on your own development rather than a team's, take the free assessment and skip this, it only earns its price once there's a group to compare.
What This Isn't
This is a structured self-reflection tool, not a validated psychometric. Its job is to start the most honest conversation your leadership team has had in a while, not to diagnose anyone.
