The Leader Profile is a reflection tool, not an assessment or a test. It consists of a set of descriptions that enable us to profile our Leadership Style. It invites us to rate each description on how well they describe ourselves on a six point scale. Highly rated descriptions are then displayed on a personal chart. The chart allows a structured and focused discussion of our key strengths and issues. The chart helps us to make sense of how we feel about ourselves in the context of our current team. The process lets us express what we know intuitively about ourselves but might struggle to put into words. The Leader Profile gives four pieces of information:
- overall inspiration score from 0 to 100%
- the balance between support and challenge e.g. 60% to 40%
- a % score for each of the leadership styles
- our specific strengths and issues
By inviting colleagues to complete a profile of our leadership, we can access their views of our leadership style. A whole team profile can be collated through the assembly tool. See resources for more information.
Instructions
