THE LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT REPORT

THE LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT REPORT HELPS YOU MAKE THE INVISIBLE VISIBLE

Organizational transformation begins with the personal transformation of the leaders. If the leaders of your organization don’t change, the culture of your organization won’t change.

Thus, to grow and develop your culture, you need to grow and develop your leaders.

INSIGHTS FROM A LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT REPORT

Authenticity and Effectiveness

When you compete a Leadership Development Report, in one simple picture, you can see how a leader believes they show up and how others experience them. The LDR also shows what assessors believe will help the leader improve his/her performance.

Leadership Awareness

When you or one of the leaders in your organization compete a Leadership Development Report, you can see how your values map against the Seven Levels of Leadership Development (Leadership Consciousness) and in which areas they are experiencing difficulties.

Strengths, Areas for Development and Opportunities for Growth

The Leadership Development Report also shows how the leader’s leadership style is perceived by others and compares this to the leader’s own view. Ii also identifies the leader’s areas to focus on and provides ratings against 26 different leadership behaviours.

OPTIONS TO ENHANCE THE LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT REPORT FEEDBACK EXPERIENCE

High Performing Leadership Group

The High Performing Leadership Group section of the LDR presents a collective view of the results of individual LDR’s, to provide an overview of the group – how they believe they act and how they come across to others.

Multiple Perspectives on Leadership

The Leadership Development Report helps you recognize the patterns and differences in how a leader interacts with others, e.g. his or her Boss, Peers, Team Members, etc.

THE LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT REPORT (“LDR”)

Similar to the Leadership Values Assessment (“LVA”), the LDR is a powerful coaching tool for promoting higher levels of self-awareness, personal transformation, and an understanding of the actions a leader needs to take to realize his or her full potential. The LDR compares a leader’s perception of his or her operating style with the perception of their superiors, peers and subordinates. Assessors also get the opportunity to indicate how they believe the leader needs to change to help the leader become the best leader they can be. Emphasis is placed on a leader’s strengths, areas for improvement, and opportunities for growth.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE LDR AND LVA

The LDR asks assessors to rate the leader against a prescribed set of 26 full spectrum ‘behaviors’ that the Barrett Values Centre’s research has shown to be significant. The LVA on the other hand, allows assessors to write free-form responses to questions about the leader’s strengths and areas for improvement. The LDR delivers a fully automated report, whereas the LVA is handwritten by one of our analysts. The LDR normally uses a standard template of values, whereas the LVA template is customized to reflect the cultural attributes of your particular organization.

BENEFITS OF USING THE LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT REPORT

• The LDR deepens your understanding of what you need to do to become an authentic, Full-Spectrum leader.
• The LDR measures personal entropy and how you are contributing to the Cultural Entropy® score of the organization.

KEY FEATURES

• Fast Turnaround – The LDR can be delivered to you within 3 working days of the completion of the online assessment.
• Multiple Languages – The online survey and plots are available in multiple languages and additional languages can easily be added. Unlike the LVA, the LDR is produced with a fully translated report, rather than in English only. 

A DESCRIPTION OF THE LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT REPORT (LDR) AND THE PROCESS INVOLVED IN PRODUCING THE REPORT

The LDR shows leaders how their leadership style is perceived by their assessors and allows them to compare this to their own view of how they lead others. In addition, assessors identify the 10 values/behaviours which they believe will help the leader to further develop his or her leadership skills. The report also identifies 26 areas, mapped to the Seven Levels of Leadership Development/Consciousness Model, against which both leaders and their assessors have clarified to what extent they believe the area to be a strength, an area for development or not relevant in their current role. This data helps leaders and their coaches put together an action plan to support them in their continuing leadership development. 

A DESCRIPTION OF THE LDR PROCESS

The LDR process uses a standard leadership values template. Clients can choose to customize this template at an additional cost. Leaders are then asked to go to a password-protected website to select ten values that most represent their operating style. They are then asked to rate themselves against a number of set leadership behaviours to state whether they believe these are strengths or areas for development. Fifteen to twenty assessors, chosen by the leader, also go to the password-protected website to select ten values that represent the leader’s operating style; ten values they believe are important for the leader to help them become the best leader they can be; rate the leader against a number of leadership behaviors; and any other comments they wish to give as feedback to the leader. The values and behaviours chosen by the leader and the assessors are mapped to the Seven Levels of Leadership Development/Consciousness.

When the report is completed, it is analyzed by your coach to highlight key strengths and development areas.  Then your coach will meet with you to debrief and unpack the report in a two-to-three hour Leadership Development and Skills Improvement Session. During the Leadership Development and Skills Improvement Session, the leader and the coach together develop a detailed action plan to improve the performance of the leader.

Demographic categories, such as Boss, Peer, and Team member, may be added to an assessment in order to view responses by relationship to the leader. These plots supplement the overall LDR report and plot and are available at an additional cost.
