A well-placed assessment can aid growth by gauging and reinforcing current knowledge, motivating one to improve, highlighting strengths as well as areas to develop. We use multiple tools to get a broad overview of a multi-faceted person.

Structured in-depth behavioral interviews with the most important people around the leader produce a detailed & colorful overview with real-life examples of the leader's behavior.

360 Global Leadership Assessment
The multi-rater structural assessment provides objectivity and structure to the assessment process and aside from relevant psychometric content, it creates buy-in from the leader. The GLA includes all relevant leadership skills to measure the effectiveness of leaders operating in an international business environment. This unique assessment developed by Marshall Goldsmith and Accenture in collaboration with 200 international organizations on 6 continents measures skills related to leadership communication, managing diversity, global & strategic thinking, leading change, technology savviness, engaging people and much more which competencies modern leaders require to succeed in an globalizing business world.

MBTI Step I & Step II Assessment Tools
Considered the gold standard for decades, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® instrument has been utilized all over the world for assessing the diverse ways individuals perceive and process information. Executives and their leadership teams increase their understanding of each other and can navigate their relationships and conversation to be more harmonious and productive in the office.

From the aforementioned assessments, the leader selects and articulates areas for leadership growth that would significantly improve their leadership effectiveness. We typically focus on 1-2 key areas for behavioral change and skill development. This ensures that maximum attention is paid to the most important behaviors. Over the course of a few weeks, the coach works with the leader and stakeholders as appropriate, to construct an action plan for improvement in the targeted areas.

Monthly coaching and action planning sessions (+2 hours) use this seven-step process as a foundation for their monthly interaction with stakeholders to manage leadership change and improve their leadership effectiveness and that of the team.

The process of consistent and regular follow-through is a key contributor to leadership growth and improved effectiveness, resulting in a changed perception of stakeholders at the same time.

We use the LGPR, Leadership Growth Progress Review, every 3 months to ensure objectivity and structure of the assessment process. /p>

Later into the process we collect the qualitative feedback from of the stakeholders to understand & measure their perception of the leader’s growth in the 1-2 leadership growth areas as determined at the outset of the process. At these points in time, the leader can evaluate their progress and identify areas for continued focus. At the end of the yearlong coaching program the final LGPR results are used to measure leadership growth.
