Leadership Assessments

Leadership assessments provides a view of leadership from every angle. From organizational needs and expectations to role specific requirements, individuals, teams, and entire organizations will benefit from MRG's Leadership Effectiveness Model.

While other assessment tools are quick to define "the right way to lead" MRG's philosophy is firmly grounded in the research-based knowledge that true leaders take many forms and draw on combinations of assets and strengths demonstrating that there is no single "right" way to lead.

Intersecting business, science and the human spirit to provide results that leverage an individual or team's unique potential to achieve and contribute to success, MRG's model is unmatched in the marketplace. Measuring 22 leadership behaviors, the Leadership Effectiveness model gives rich and practical insight to expand both individual and organizational development.

Used independently or in combination with other MRG offerings, MRG's suite of Leadership assessments will help you:

• Identify specific leadership practices needed to achieve your organization's strategic goals
• Identify leadership behaviors currently in practice within an organization
• Create selection criteria that help predict the success of candidates for leadership positions
• Provide relevant, insightful feedback to leaders
• Build action and accountability into the leadership development process
• Provide constructive coaching suggestions for key areas of leadership development

These products are available in several languages.

Define Leadership Effectiveness

MRG has two valuable role requirements products as part of our Leadership suite that can help identify the most important behaviors for success at an organizational level or for a particular role. Both offerings incorporate the use of an individual questionnaire and a facilitated discussion session of whole-group results to gain a collective vision for the target success profile in each unique situation.

LEA Strategic Directions™ will help identify the most important behaviors for success within an organization, creating a strategic context for leadership assessment and making business strategy come alive for leaders and managers. Typically used with an organization's senior management team, LEA Strategic Directions™ can:

• Identify the critical leadership practices and tie them to business objectives
• Clarify developmental priorities for the organization's leaders and managers
• Identify action steps that the senior team can complete to develop a culture that will foster the desired leadership behaviors

LEA Role Expectations™ effectively identifies the leadership practices required for a specific role and will help:

• Create clear expectations for a new position to aid in the selection and development of new employees
• Clarify and resolve differences in expectations between an incumbent and his or her manager
• Create greater consistency when multiple leaders are in the same role

Coach and Develop

LEA Development Reports™ for individuals allow you to measure leadership at the level your intervention requires. The LEA 360 Report incorporates observations from others to provide deep insights into the patterns of leadership practices and increases awareness about the impact they are having on key constituents. Both come with rich feedback that includes:

• Powerful, unique descriptions of an individual's approach to leadership
• Strategic implications and developmental opportunities
• Suggested action steps and tools for prioritizing developmental actions

Group Insights

LEA Composite Profiles™ are an effective way to analyze the leadership practices and culture of a group and identify their strengths and developmental needs. MRG's Enhanced Composite goes a step further, representing the LEA data with more impact, enabling richer and more resonant discussions with groups and teams. With colorful, visually impressive graphs, the Enhanced Composite immediately tells the story of the leadership patterns within a team or a group creating a blueprint for training needs analysis and team development.
