The Match Index Work Factors

Workload Self-Assessment

There is no right answer here. High hours tolerance is not heroic. Low hours tolerance is not fragile. Needing more resources is not a weakness, and needing fewer is not a strength. These describe the conditions under which you do your best work, not personality flaws. When something feels off, the default explanation is often you — your resilience, your time management, your commitment. But often what feels like a you problem is a match problem: the load is wrong for you, right now.

“Match and mismatch are about you AND your life circumstances.”
