Assessing leadership capability
If you want your organisation to grow, then you and your leaders will need to grow with it. As a starting point you will want to know which of your team have the most potential and how to support them to develop; to know their strengths and talents and have a development plan to help them grow.
This type of assessment is potentially sensitive so it is often best facilitated by experts who are not part of ‘the system’ and can give unbiased support.
Or it may be that you are individually wanting to understand your capability and potential career direction.
First we have a briefing with you to discover what you want to achieve from this analysis. This will help select the most appropriate leadership framework from a selection of tried and tested approaches including:
Tailored 360 degree feedback through internet based questionnaires or telephone interviews - Extended DISC profiling to give insight on behavioural style and motivation
- Values in Action to give insight on your personal values
- Leadership Practices Inventory to benchmark your capability against a worldwide leadership community
- Strengthsfinder to help identify your innate talents
We then hold individual face to face to debrief each person on their personal feedback and to gain insights. Orbit will support and challenge each leader to maximise their potential. From this we develop a framework for individual learning and action plans for leadership development.
This assessment is most effective when followed by a team leadership development programme or individual executive coaching and mentoring as appropriate.
