About CharacterLOGIC

CharacterLOGIC, formerly Anderson-Squires, is a consulting firm specializing in executive assessment, selection, coaching, and team development. Its work helps organizations make better decisions about senior talent and strengthen leadership performance.

The team uses assessment as part of a wider consulting process, creating tools that support executive selection, leadership coaching, and team development, with a strong focus on improving business performance.


“In a nutshell, we help companies top-grade their executive talent and leadership to improve business performance.”

– Dr. Dan Squires, Founder, Anderson-Squires (now operating as CharacterLOGIC)

Custom reporting without a custom-built platform

CharacterLOGIC needed more than a front-end survey tool. The team wanted to build, test, and refine its own assessment concepts while also creating custom automated reports that could reflect the way it works with clients.

Brilliant Assessments gave them that flexibility without the time and cost of developing a dedicated assessment platform. As the platform’s reporting and functionality have expanded, CharacterLOGIC has been able to refine its assessments, explore new ideas, and take on a wider range of client projects.

“Brilliant Assessments is the only assessment platform we’ve found that allows us to build and integrate our own custom automated reporting.”

– Dr. Dan Squires, Founder, Anderson-Squires (now operating as CharacterLOGIC)

More flexibility for assessment development


Test assessment concepts

CharacterLOGIC can alpha and beta test new assessment ideas, make changes and fine-tune them over time without the cost and complexity of developing its own assessment technology.

Custom automated reporting

The reporting functionality allows the team to build and integrate its own custom automated reports, giving CharacterLOGIC much more control over how assessment results are delivered to clients.

More opportunities for client work

As the functionality available in Brilliant Assessments has expanded, so has the range of projects CharacterLOGIC can support. Dan says the team was even hired for a new assessment project partly because of its expertise with the platform.

Responsive technical support

The team has worked with Brilliant Assessments for years and values having knowledgeable support that responds quickly, resolves issues and answers questions when they arise.

“The support we have received from Brilliant Assessments over the years is second to none.”

Full Interview Transcript

Dr. Dan Squires, Founder, Anderson-Squires (now operating as CharacterLOGIC)

Anderson-Squires is a consulting firm specializing in corporate executive assessments, selection, coaching, and team development.

In a nutshell, we help companies top-grade their executive talent and leadership to improve business performance.

We use the Brilliant Assessments platform to create a variety of tools designed to help companies with selecting talent, to support executive leadership performance through coaching, and to assist teams with optimizing synergy, all with an eye on maximizing performance.

Brilliant Assessments is the only assessment platform we’ve found that allows us to build and integrate our own custom automated reporting.

While there are several good front-end survey platforms available, the reporting functionality in Brilliant Assessments really sets it apart and allows us to build, test, and refine assessments at a lower price and time point than any other option.

Brilliant Assessments has definitely delivered the benefits we had been hoping for. In fact, over time, the platform’s range of functionality and reporting options has continued to expand, which in turn has given us more flexibility with our own creative process.

The functionality in the Brilliant Assessments platform has absolutely expanded our opportunities in terms of both the number and range of projects we can assist clients with. For example, we were recently hired to complete an assessment project for a new client, in part because of our expertise with the platform.

The support we have received from Brilliant Assessments over the years is second to none. The support staff is always — and I mean always — very quick to respond and equally good at resolving issues and answering questions. Their tech support is really top-notch.

I would recommend Brilliant Assessments to anyone who needs the ability to alpha and beta test assessment concepts, especially with respect to creating and fine-tuning custom automated reporting.

In addition, Brilliant Assessments is a cost-effective alternative to hosting and managing finalized assessments over time, especially when compared to the cost of dedicated, custom-built assessment platforms.
