If you need help designing or facilitating your leadership assessment programme we can help.

We recognise there isn’t a one size fits all when it comes to uncovering leadership strengths and potential, so we’ll work with you to develop a bespoke leadership assessment solution based on a strong understanding of your business needs, context and aspirations.

All our leadership assessment programmes focus on identifying a person’s unique potential, strengths, motivations and talents.  This creates a positive and motivating developmental experience for participants whereby they can explore bringing more of these qualities to their work.

How do we do this?

We tailor your leadership assessment criteria and process according to the specific aspects of leadership capability and skills you’re looking to observe and measure. Whether you’re looking for a programme that is small and ad hoc or large-scale and repeatable, we can co-create a research informed programme that reflects your leadership assessment and development strategy.

We can do this in one of four ways:

  • Helping you design an evidence-based leadership competency framework from scratch.
  • Using an industry recognised leadership model for example JDI – Judgement Drive and Influence from YSC or The Korn Ferry Assessment of Leadership Potential (KFALP)
  • Utilising one you have in place already.
  • Combining one you have already with an industry recognised one.

Once we’ve agreed your preferred leadership competency framework and the outcomes you’re looking for, we’ll begin to explore and identify assessment methods and tools that will help you to observe and measure leadership performance and potential within your business.

What are some of the methods we use?

We will help you to identify, procure and administer psychometric profiling tools that can help you in uncovering individual leadership strengths and behaviour.

We are psychometric agnostic meaning we are not aligned to one particular tool; we’ll listen to what your requirements are and will assist you in selecting one that best fits your specific needs.  We are fortunate to have a team of Business Psychologists who are accredited in a number of different tools as well as having consultants who are on the Register of Qualifications in Test Use (RQTU) with the British Psychological Society.

We can also help design interview assessment questions, guides and criteria based on the agreed leadership competency framework as well as providing appropriate measurement and scoring mechanisms.

We can help to design practical assessments by creating case studies and marking criteria that reflect both your business context and leadership competency framework.

To accelerate participant self-awareness we can incorporate 360 feedback mechanisms as part of the programme design and implementation.  We can either integrate your existing 360 feedback solution into the programme or support you in either designing and/or procuring a 360 feedback solution.

We bespoke all of our participant assessment reports so they reflect the outcomes you’re looking to communicate both in terms of language, behaviours and the culture of your business.

In addition to designing and facilitating the assessment process we can assist individual participants with executing their individualised leadership development plans through one-to-one feedback and coaching.  This could be a stand-alone offering or part of a longer leadership development coaching programme.

We can integrate some or all of the above assessment methods to offer a blended approach towards measurement of leadership potential, allowing for more nuance and personalisation in your programme.
