Grounded in the same thorough research that produced the successful Potentia systems, Brevis is a method of gaining an accurate overview of a graduate’s long-term development potential. It is a conversational method that explores the graduate’s capacity for complete thinking, this being the essential determinant of future leadership potential.

Complete thinking is the ability to consider the intellectual aspects of a problem as well as the social, political and ethical contexts in which a solution to the problem must work. It involves thinking about the situation at present and in wider time and space frameworks, so that today’s decision takes into account changing contexts, and the solution stands the test of time. Some people do this naturally and well, others find it difficult.

The capacity for complete thinking is measurable - Brevis can produce an accurate snapshot of this capacity in 35 minutes.

It is a conversational method that explores the capacity for "Complete Thinking" - the ability and drive to understand all the facets of a situation as a basis for decisive action.
