Is this the right fit?

Build a clearer picture of capabilities.
Look beyond first impressions.

Assessment tools offer a perspective on aspects of leadership capability, behaviour and practice. Results are interpreted in relation to the work context and assessment purpose, not as a standalone, definitive judgement of an individual.

  • When identifying development priorities for leaders and talent.
  • When seeking to understand leadership competencies, readiness or practices.
  • When linking assessment findings to needs analysis, training or leadership support.

How do we choose a suitable measure?

We start with the assessment purpose, participant group and question to be explored, then discuss a suitable tool and its administration requirements.

Which measures are listed on the website?

The current list includes leadership competency assessment, leadership motivation, followership style, leadership readiness and leadership practices. Availability and suitability are confirmed when defining the service scope.

Is a result enough to make a decision about someone?

Results are interpreted in context, within the tool’s limitations and alongside other relevant information. They are not treated as a standalone, definitive judgement of someone’s competence.

Can results be linked to training or coaching?

They can inform discussions about development priorities and the choice of a suitable approach. The scope of any subsequent engagement is agreed separately.

How is the privacy of results managed?

The purpose of collecting results, who is authorised to access them and how they will be shared are agreed in advance within the service scope.
