Leadership Assessment Instrument Feedback Results January 0
Introduction Leadership seems to be the marshaling of skills possessed by a majority but used by a minority. But it's something that can be learned by anyone, taught to everyone, denied to no one. Warren Bennis, Leaders Effective leadership is arguably the most critical factor in individual, team, and organizational-level interaction. It can often be extraordinarily difficult, however, to explain what exactly effective leadership is. Among the diverse and manifold misconceptions about leadership, one of the most significant is the belief that every great motivator, planner, director, mover, and shaker must be a born leader. In fact, we all possess the skills needed to be a leader. Leadership can be developed; it is not a gift bestowed only upon a lucky few. The best leaders are those who make a personal choice to continually assess and constantly develop their leadership capabilities. The following report is a detailed examination of how your leadership behaviors are perceived. This Leadership Assessment Profile TM compiles and reports all of the quantitative and qualitative data collected on your behalf concerning your leadership competencies, skills, and behaviors. This feedback provides a framework to begin exploring your leadership strengths and development needs. To fully realize your leadership potential, you may not only need to address some development areas but also to sustain and build upon your existing strengths. Other people, including those who have not participated in this process, may be able to give you more detailed observations and examples which could help you better understand this feedback. We hope that you will use your Leadership Assessment Instrument (LAI) feedback to focus your developmental efforts on specific behaviors, while capitalizing on the strengths you already possess.
Overview The High Impact Leadership Model The Leadership Assessment Instrument (LAI) tests for the competencies and skills contained in the High Impact Leadership Model. This section of your Leadership Assessment Profile details the various elements that comprise this Model to help you better understand your LAI results. The Model consists of five leadership competencies, six leadership skills, and five leadership responsibilities (note: the LAI tests for the competencies and skills contained in the Model, but does not test for the leadership responsibilities in the Model.). In the pages that follow, we set forth the model and provide definitions of each of its elements (five competencies, six skills, and five responsibilities.) In addition, the pages that follow indicate that each of the five competencies is comprised of two components (e.g., Focused Drive is comprised of Focus and Drive; Emotional Intelligence is comprised of Perception and Emotional Maturity; etc.). Furthermore, each of these components is supported by behavioral indicators. These indicators are, in fact, the competency items contained in the LAI.

The N signifies the total number of responses received for all items in each respective competency/skill. B Benchmark Summary This section averages all item ratings within a benchmark by the self and all rater responses. The N signifies the total number of responses received for all items in each respective competency. C Benchmark Summary (Ranked by Rating) This section averages all item ratings within a benchmark by all raters and sorts them by the resulting average for highest to lowest. The N signifies the total number of responses received for all items in each respective component / skill. D Item Results Graphical and numerical data regarding ratings for each specific item are depicted by rater group. E Gaps Items in which the ratings between the rating and the average ratings of other groups are greater than 0% are listed here. The gaps are provided for each rater group. F Highest and Lowest Rated Items The items with the highest and lowest ratings from all raters are provided in this section. The number of items listed is determined as a percentage of the total number of items in the assessment instrument. If the average is within the highest 0% of the scale, the item will not be displayed as a low rating. If the average is within the lowest 0%, the item will not be displayed as a high rating. G Comments Comments from your raters are categorized by rater group. Comments will not appear on aggregate reports.
Rater Response The numbers below represent the number of completed surveys submitted by each rater group prior to the deadline. Please note that these numbers do not necessarily reflect the number of responses you received on each item as some individuals may not have given you feedback on every item. These figures only represent completed, submitted assessments. Report N Nominated N Response Rate (Sample) 00.00% 00.00% 00.00% 00.00% TOTAL 8 8 00.00% For non-anonymous rater groups such as,, ratings will be shown if at least one assessment has been submitted. To preserve anonymity, our processing program will not display responses from anonymous rater groups (e.g.,, ) with fewer than three submitted surveys. If fewer than three surveys have been received from a rater group, their ratings will be combined with those of another rater group. Your report will indicate which groups have been combined. For any single item with fewer than three responses in a rater group, Insufficient Responses will appear for that item in lieu of data.
