Actionable

Feedback

Leaders experience our world-class 360-degree feedback assessment with globally validated questions and high benchmark comparisons on verified leadership behaviors that are indispensable to your organization.

19

Competencies

Based on our extensive research, these 19 leadership competencies are those that differentiate extraordinary leaders (those in the 90th percentile) from their peers. Leaders receive feedback from their 360-degree leadership assessment regarding their effectiveness from colleagues, manager(s), and direct reports.

Personal

Focus

To fully integrate and act on key insights from your 360 Assessment, it has been shown that personalized coaching is a critical tool.  We offer three coaching sessions to help you integrate insights and maximize the value of this assessment.

Strengths

Centered

Our ground-breaking leadership research has proven that great leaders are defined by having a few profound strengths rather than an absence of weaknesses. The goal of our 360-degree leadership assessment is to assist leaders in identifying and developing strengths.

Performance rating scale with five levels: 5 for Outstanding Strength (Top 10%), 4 for Strength (Top Quartile), 3 for Competent (Good Performance), 2 for Needs Some Improvement (Inconsistent Performance), and 1 for Needs Significant Improvement (Poor Performance).

A Unique Scale

Most 360-degree leadership assessments use an agree – disagree scale which gives a positive skew. We developed an alternative scale to reduce the positive skew and provide more insight for leaders about their strengths and fatal flaws.

Global Norms

Zenger Folkman’s research reveals an enormous difference in results delivered by leaders who are perceived as just good, compared to leaders who are extraordinary. Our 360-degree feedback reports compare leaders to a high standard– the 75th and 90th percentile of global leaders in our extensive database of over 1.5 million 360-degree leadership assessments.

Survey results showing ratings from direct reports related to organizational confidence and recommending the workplace. Scores for confidence and recommendation both average 4.0, with graphical bars indicating ratings distribution from 1 to 5.

Employee Engagement

The employee engagement and commitment index measures the extent to which a leader’s Direct Reports are satisfied and motivated to do their jobs. Our research shows a direct connection between leadership effectiveness and employee commitment.
