_New book on resilience, written by leading experts on the psychology of lawyer 
behavior, credits 30 years of Talogy’s Caliper Profile_

PITTSBURGH, Sept. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — [Talogy](https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4770343-1&h=1138068587&u=https%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2F3Rm9Hfm&a=Talogy),
a global leader in talent management solutions, has been recognized for its pivotal
role in advancing workplace resilience research in a new book _Thin-Skinned: Why
Lawyers Are So Low in Resilience and the New Science That Can Help._

Published by the American Bar Association, the book by leading legal psychology 
experts Dr. Larry Richard and Dr. D’Arcy Lyness credits 30 years of data from Talogy’s
[Caliper profile assessment](https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4770343-1&h=862889025&u=https%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2F3QQwd0f&a=Caliper+profile+assessment)
as the foundation for its insights into high-stakes workforce performance.

Drawing from a **database of 4.5 million Caliper assessments**, the book highlights
a central workplace paradox: the very traits required for exceptional job performance
are often the exact traits that leave professionals vulnerable to stress. Specifically,
Dr. Richard’s data shows that **lawyers average just 30% on resilience**, compared
to 50% for the general public, with nine out of 10 scoring in the bottom half of
the resilience scale. This is **a pattern that has remained unchanged since 1994.**

"In the three decades that we have been evaluating and coaching legal professionals,
we have seen a clear pattern," said Dr. Larry Richard. "Law schools admit, firms
hire and clients reward individuals who demonstrate high skepticism, high urgency,
high self-reliance and an intolerance for error. While those traits produce stronger
legal documents and won cases, our research shows they also predict rumination, 
defensiveness, isolation and difficulty coping with criticism, stress and change."

This dynamic extends far beyond law. Any workforce that hires and promotes for vigilance,
perfection and precision under pressure faces the same risks, such as manufacturing
safety leads, ICU charge nurses, compliance officers, federal investigators or public
safety supervisors.

By using Talogy’s assessment data to view resilience as a measurable trait rather
than a temporary mood, leaders across all organizations can act on three core operational
insights:

 ◦ **Early risk detection: **Identify psychological risk factors before they lead
   to turnover, prolonged absences, or safety incidents.
 ◦ **Separating skill from leadership: **Recognize that a top individual performer
   is not automatically equipped to be a resilient leader.
 ◦ **Actionable intervention:** Address workforce vulnerabilities directly using
   science-backed development strategies.

"The Caliper Profile measures the innate personality traits and behavioral motivations
that dictate how individuals process stress, setbacks, and criticism," said [Nataliya](https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4770343-1&h=3707529482&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fin%2Fnataliya-baytalskaya-ph-d-23842422%2F&a=Nataliya)

Ph.D. and Managing Research Scientist at Talogy. "Low resilience is not a barrier,
it is a developmental opportunity. By leveraging objective measurement, organizations
can deploy targeted, evidence-based strategies that help high-performing teams adapt
under pressure without sacrificing their operational edge."
