360° Assessments

Denison Leadership Development Survey 360°

The DLDS measures an individual’s leadership skills and practices as they relate to these key traits. Each individual’s scores are benchmarked against a database of leaders from across the globe. The survey provides participants with 360 degree feedback from a number of perspectives including from their supervisor, peers and direct reports. This provides the leader with a comprehensive view of their leadership strengths and potential areas for improvement. The DLDS leverages the Denison Model of High Performance, a model that has been linked to key performance metrics such as profitability, quality, innovation, market share, sales growth, and employee satisfaction.

Emotional Intelligence 360

The EQ-i 2.0 measure a set of emotional and social skills that influence the way we:

  1. perceive and express ourselves,
  2. develop and maintain social relationships,
  3. cope with challenges, and
  4. use emotional information in an effective and meaningful way.

The EQ-i 2.0 model of emotional intelligence is comprised of fifteen factors across five categories of functioning which are:

  • Self-Perception
  • Self-Expression
  • Interpersonal
  • Decision-Making
  • Stress Management

These skills, which form the building blocks of abilities such as communication, resilience, and time management, can be mapped theoretically and empirically to job competencies, productivity, academic performance, and other measures of success to help predict and improve functioning.

Abundant Life 360°

A customizable assessment triangulated with you, the Holy Spirit and strategically chosen believers of Jesus Christ will provide key insights into your strengths and areas of development.  With the clarity of the feedback collected, and confirmed through multiple sources, you are provided insight, honesty and solutions to a path of the Abundant Life Jesus offers in the Bible (John 10:10).  The assessment involves an interview with yourself and God along with six to nine believers who know you well and are selected and interviewed on the same questions you and God discuss together.  A report is created capturing the themes, patterns and messages that emerge for the purpose of examining key areas to focus on.  The goal is to gain a fuller understanding and to practice living out the Abundant Life God has specifically for you.  Typically, insight coaching follows the completed report and behavioral goals are documented, measured and supported over time with challenging assignments for continued growth.

Campbell Leadership Index

The Campbell Leadership Index (CLI) is a robust 360° leadership feedback tool that helps measure personal characteristics directly related to the nature and demands of leadership, including risk management. Developed by renowned psychologist Dr. David Campbell at the Center for Creative Leadership, the CLI can be used for individual development and coaching or as part of organization-wide efforts to assess and benchmark collective leadership talent.

Specifically, the CLI can help to:

  • Pinpoint areas for leadership development
  • Assess executive “fit” in high performance cultures
  • Provide comprehensive needs analysis across management teams
  • Help to identify leadership potential for succession planning purposes
  • Provide multisource feedback on leadership skills and ethical behavior
  • Identify gaps in perception between leaders and observers on 22 leadership factors Dimensions of measurement include: Leadership (Ambitious, Daring, Dynamic, Enterprising, Experienced, Farsighted, Original, and Persuasive), Energy, Affability (Affectionate, Considerate, Empowering, Entertaining, and Friendly), Dependability (Credible, Organized, Productive, and Thrifty) and Resilience (Calm, Flexible, Optimistic, and Trusting).

Emerging Leaders Profile

The Emerging Leaders Profile is an outgrowth of an extensive search for an appropriate assessment tool for new or high potential leaders – those just entering the ranks of supervision and management and without the broad experience of challenging management responsibilities.  As result, working with and through young leaders themselves, research led to the development of twelve leadership skills and traits that influence a new leader’s effectiveness and establishes a foundation for personal growth. 

  • Gathers perspectives from up to 17 raters
  • Provides a benchmark whereby a manager may see at a glance how he/she is perceived by others versus self‐perception
  • Adds two dimensions of feedback not normally found in 360‐degree instruments: “Do More” or “Do Less” of each rated behavior, and has the capacity for 5 customizable questions.

Conflict Dynamic Profile

 

The Conflict Dynamics Profile (CDP), an assessment instrument measuring conflict behavior, is an excellent resource to increase self-awareness and improve conflict management skills. The CDP is unlike any other assessment tool in that it focuses specifically on conflict behaviors, rather than styles. It helps individuals and teams understand how they respond to conflict, what triggers can escalate conflict, and how to manage conflict more effectively.

The CDP-360 enables you to compare your own perceptions about how you behave during conflict with those of your colleagues. It provides a complete “conflict profile” with feedback from bosses, peers, and direct reports. The CDP-360 is particularly helpful for leaders, managers, and high-potential employees for whom conflict can be particularly challenging.

In addition to feedback on 15 scales, both versions of the CDP have a unique “hot buttons” section which identifies the emotional triggers that negatively impact relationships.

Conflict Dynamics Profile

The Conflict Dynamics Profile, an assessment instrument dealing with conflict behaviors in the workplace, provides a powerful way to improve self-awareness of what triggers conflict in individuals as well as how they respond to conflict. Based on these triggers and responses, the Conflict Dynamics Profile then provides practical approaches for improving behaviors that promote more effective workplace conflict resolution.
