Leadership Levers

Building Critical Strengths™

A simple, yet powerful development experience grounded in six leadership capabilities shown by research to be the most predictive of positive business outcomes. Participants receive personalized data to help them recognize their interest in and energy for these six capabilities—the Leadership Levers.

Overview

Development fueled by passion

Passion for and interest in a development goal is key for an individual’s development success.

By combining their personal passions with a clearer understanding of the organization’s needs, participants learn how to develop the Leadership Levers through a meaningful, personalized experience that will help them thrive and your organization succeed.

Highlights

A small, highly predictive framework with a personalized path to strength.

The Framework

Six critical capabilities

Developing any one of the six Leadership Levers into a signature strength propels a leader’s effectiveness into the 72nd percentile of global leaders. Building significant strength across three catapults a leader into the 90th percentile.

The Assessment

Passion meets competence

A unique self-assessment identifies which Leadership Levers the participant finds most rewarding and energizing. Participants discover the connection between personal passions and competence.

The Plan

A personal action plan

Working with learning partners, participants synthesize personal insights—including a targeted organizational needs interview—to select a development focus and create a personal action plan.
