The Name

Why we call it a menagerie.

menagerie muh-NAJ-uh-ree noun · a varied collection of animals, gathered in one place.

Every team is a menagerie already. Different animals, different strengths, in one place. The Menagerie Method simply gives that mix a language, which animal each person is, what they bring, and how they work best together.

The Menagerie

One of these is you.

Most people are surprised by which. Each animal is a pattern of how you work, not a box you live in.

Leadership

Lion

The Commander

You lead from the front. People follow because you actually go first.

Leadership

Eagle

The Visionary

You see further than everyone else in the room. That is your edge.

Leadership

Owl

The Scholar

You think deeply before you act. People trust your judgment because it has been tested.

The Strategist

You read the game three moves ahead. While others react, you plan.

You read people instantly. You make every room feel safer.

Relational

Relational

Horse

The Loyalist

You are reliable to a fault. You finish what you start with everyone watching.

Execution

Ant

The Architect

You do the work nobody sees. The whole system runs because of you.

Execution

Cheetah

The Sprinter

You move fast and ship fast. Others are still planning while you have launched.

Execution

Peacock

The Performer

You light up the stage. Your presence sells what others struggle to explain.

Execution

Octopus

The Maker

You build things that did not exist before. Your output is endlessly varied.

The Method

Four dimensions, one pattern.

Your animal comes from where you sit on four dimensions of working life. Not a label, a pattern you can use.

01

Pace

How fast you move, and when you prefer to pause.

02

People

Where your energy comes from, the room or the quiet.

03

Focus

Where your attention goes first, the detail or the direction.

04

Decision

How you weigh a choice, by logic or by feel.

Ten Minutes

Ten minutes, a full picture.

1

Answer honestly

A short set of questions about how you actually work, not how you think you should.

2

Meet your animal

Your archetype, your four dimensions, and the flavour that makes it yours.

3

See the picture

Your strengths, your blind spots, the roles that fit, and who you click and clash with.

Free for individuals. No payment, no catch.

Not a Label

A mirror, not a verdict.

It describes patterns we see in people who work like you, never predictions we make about you. Built to help you understand yourself and work better with others, not to put you in a box.

For Teams

The Menagerie Method, for teams.

When a whole team knows its mix, conversations get easier and work flows better. Use it for self-awareness, team mapping, communication and development.

Map your team

See the spread of animals across a team, and where the gaps and overlaps sit.

Work better together

Give people a shared language for how each other thinks and decides.

Develop, don't sort

Built for growth and training, never for hiring or sifting, and we keep it that way.

Questions

Good to know.

Is it really free?

Yes, free for individuals. Take it, share it, keep your result.

How long does it take?

About ten minutes, answered honestly.

What is it based on?

Four dimensions of how you work, Pace, People, Focus and Decision, mapped to twelve archetypes. It describes patterns, it does not predict your future.

Can we use it to hire or promote?

No. The Menagerie Method is for development and self-awareness, not for selection, hiring or promotion decisions.
