Different relationships see different things. So they get different questions.
A direct report can speak to coaching and fairness. A client can speak to trust and value. Asking both the same five-star question produces noise.
- 01
Invite
You pick the people. Nobody is added to WHY ME! without asking.

The question set changes with the relationship.

The relationships we ask about
Each relationship gets its own recommendation question, its own rated attributes, and its own open-ended questions.
Direct report
Leadership, coaching, trust, fairness, and how you handle pressure.
Manager
Execution, judgment, ownership, and readiness for a larger scope.
Peer
Collaboration, reliability, conflict handling, and what you make easier.
Executive / senior leader
Strategic judgment, business impact, and leadership maturity.
Client / customer
Trust, responsiveness, understanding of needs, and value delivered.
Cross-functional partner
Handoffs, alignment across teams, and navigating ambiguity.
Vendor / external partner
Professionalism, follow-through, clarity, and partnership.
What WHY ME! will not do
No unsolicited profiles
You can only ever create and control your own profile.
Private by default
A finished profile is private until you deliberately publish it.
No invented reputation
WHY ME! never generates, seeds, or estimates feedback about you.
No resume, no feed
No career timeline, education section, connections, or social posts.
Accounts, profiles, visibility controls, review invitations and Professional Perspectives are live. Eligible submissions follow the transparent 72-hour publication process.
