Assess

Assessments are used in a variety of ways to advance leadership development initiatives. Often, after key competencies are identified in an organization, a next step is to assess individual against those standards to identify strengths and gaps for development. 

Individual assessment may also be used in the context of high potential development programs to fast-track leaders on specific skills that can accelerate leaders in their careers. Assessments are also a first step in many coaching engagements to identify potential focus areas for development.

Team assessments can be used to build new teams, foster better communication or leverage complimentary team member skills. They can also be helpful in identifying awareness behind pain points in working together with tools for improving the dynamic.
