Leadership Assessment Tools &
360-Degree Feedback
Leadership Assessment Tools & Profiles:
Assessment tools and leadership profiles help leaders and teams gain insight into natural leadership aptitudes. I am certified in:
- Workplace Big Five Profile: This is my favorite all-around leadership assessment tool, which reveals an individual’s five super traits and 23 subtraits. The Workplace Big 5 Model has been shown to maximize engagement, boost performance, and help people optimize their energy. It is also the most scientifically valid personality assessment available.
- EQi-2.0: Emotional intelligence is one of the most important leadership competencies one can develop. Emotional intelligence is a set of emotional and social skills that influence how you perceive and express yourself, develop and maintain relationships, cope with adversity, problem solve, make sound decisions, and use emotional information in an effective and meaningful way. I am certified in the EQi-2.0 report, the leadership report, and the EQi-2.0 360 report.
I am also certified in the DISC assessment, Positive Intelligence PQ and Saboteur assessment, and use the VIA Survey of Character Strengths and Gallup Strengthsfinders assessment tools.
360-Degree Feedback
It can be difficult to gain an honest pulse into one’s behavior through only self-assessments. 360-degree feedback processes are designed to gather anonymous feedback from the people who work closest to the individual, in the spirit of learning and development.
In the signature 360-degree process I lead, I interview stakeholders, colleagues, direct reports, peers, and partners to get to the essence of how the leader I am coaching operates and is perceived in the workplace. This supports us in gaining a full picture of their strengths, development needs, and blind spots. I use this feedback to generate a summary report, which we use in our coaching to design a development plan. This supports us to reach their individual and organizational goals more effectively, and can lead to a higher level of performance and positive impact.
I am also certified in the EQi-2.0 360-degree feedback process, which offers a less time-intensive, survey-style alternative to a 360.
