How well are you managing stress? Is your work-life balance helping or hindering your wellbeing? 

Two new interactive Self Assessments on the FuturU platform are here to help you answer those questions – and take meaningful action. 

Whether you’re just starting out in your career or juggling multiple responsibilities, these tools are designed to help you reflect, recalibrate, and grow. 

What’s new?

Risk of Burnout Self Assessment

Burnout doesn’t happen overnight. It builds slowly – often unnoticed – until it starts affecting your health, motivation, and performance. This assessment helps you spot the signs early. 

What to expect: 

  • 15 statements about your work experience and wellbeing 
  • Rate each from 1 (Strongly Disagree) to 5 (Strongly Agree) 
  • Your score reveals your current burnout risk level. 

What you’ll get: 

  • A personalised snapshot of your burnout risk 
  • Practical strategies to reduce stress and improve wellbeing 
  • Tailored suggestions based on your score, from maintaining boundaries to seeking professional support.
     

Why it matters: 
Burnout can affect anyone. This tool helps you take stock and make changes before stress becomes overwhelming. 

Work-Life Balance Self Assessment

Balancing work and personal life is essential for long-term success and happiness. This assessment helps you reflect on how well you’re managing that balance right now, and what you can do moving forward.

What to expect: 

  • 10 statements about your work-life habits 
  • Rate each from 1 (Strongly Disagree) to 5 (Strongly Agree) 
  • Your score shows how balanced your current lifestyle is. 

What you’ll get: 

  • A clear picture of your work-life balance 
  • Actionable tips to improve boundaries, time management, and wellbeing 
  • Recommendations tailored to your score – whether you’re just starting to make changes or already thriving.
     

Why it matters: 
Work-life balance isn’t a luxury – it’s a necessity. This assessment helps you protect your time, energy, and mental health. 

Who are these assessments for?

These tools are for anyone who wants to understand their current wellbeing, make informed decisions about how they work and live, and build habits that support long-term success. 

Whether you’re a learner, leader, or somewhere in between, these assessments offer a moment of reflection – and a path forward. 

What else is available?

The FuturU platform offers a growing collection of free Self Assessments designed to support personal and professional development including: 

Career Aspirations – Clarify your goals and explore what motivates you 
Being Inclusive and Respectful of Differences – Reflect on how you engage with diversity and inclusion 
Empathy – explore how well you notice, understand, and respond to the feelings of those around you 
Compassion – Reflect on how you show compassion in your everyday practice.  

Each assessment is free, interactive, and designed to help you grow in areas that matter. 

Our Self Assessments aren’t about scoring yourself against others. They’re about building self-awareness, identifying areas for growth, and taking practical steps towards improvement.  

They’re tools for reflection, not diagnosis. And they’re most powerful when used regularly, as part of your ongoing development.
