Well done!Q1 or Topic 1 Biggest Gap FeedbackStrategicIt appears this may be an improvement opportunity. Strategic thinking, problem solving, and decision-making rank as the number one skill for effective leadership. So, if you are wanting to make sure you continue to move up in your career as a successful leader, this is a competency that is worth investing time and resources. A good first step would be to take the full Leadership Effectiveness Analysis Assessment which will give you detailed feedback along with resources for improvement. Additionally, working with an executive coach will help you move quicker in the right direction!Q2 or Topic 2 Biggest Gap FeedbackCommunicationIt appears this is a key topic area to work and improve on. When it comes to making an impact on others through leadership, if the audience cannot hear it and/or see it, from their perspective it does not exist. Communication is the number two competency needed for effective leadership (with Strategic being the first). Now would be a good time to begin listing ways to communicate better and more often. And, do not forget that encouraging your staff to ask questions to clarify understanding is also important for effective communication. In the words of Judith Glasser, founder of Conversational Intelligence, "Words Create Worlds." The benefit of working with an Executive Coach to improve communication is that you have a trusted partner who you can practice this competency with. Q3 or Topic 3 Biggest Gap FeedbackEmpathyYour quiz results point to this competency as an area of improvement. If you are lacking empathy, the odds are likely you might not have the supportive relationships you need to be an effective leader. Leaders who lack empathy choose to maintain a certain distance in their working relationships with people and, often, do not see this as an issue before it is too late to course correct. To improve upon empathy, it is recommended you take the full Leadership Effectiveness Analysis Assessment that will give you detailed feedback regarding this competency along with resources for improvement. To get started on being aware of empathy, try showing concern for others along with being more generous with your time with those close to you.Q4 or Topic 4 Biggest Gap FeedbackPersuasiveYour quiz result is showing that building commitment by convincing others and winning them over to your point of view may be difficult for you. Further you may find you are unable to sell your ideas effectively. Being persuasive in the context of leadership means using language effectively to persuade others and build commitment for your ideas and initiatives. So, this is a critical area of improvement if you find yourself lacking in this area. Some things you can do to begin improving is to practice being a skillful presenter by using compelling language and using your emotional expression and your belief in your ideas as a vehicle for positive influence. This competency can be improved quickly through time spent with an experienced Executive Coach. Q5 or Topic 5 Biggest Gap FeedbackManagement FocusManagement Focus ranks third among the top seven competencies required for effective leaders. Looking at your score, it appears this area may need your attention in order to improve your ability to provide effective guidance. Since it is the competency that ensures results in working through others, it is a must have in a leader's toolbox. If you see yourself struggling to give direction, having little influence on others, or having difficulty facing conflict, now is the time to act on moving this score up to ensure you do not begin going backwards in your leadership career.Q6 or Topic 6 Biggest Gap FeedbackExcitement / EnergyIt appears this is an opportunity for improvement for you. Leaders who lack a certain level of energy and/or excitement are seen by others as unmotivating. They may be steady under pressure but will have difficulty getting peoples attention. If you recognize yourself as having low excitement/energy as a leader, take a first step towards improvement by practicing emotional expressions outside of the job. Working with an Executive Coach is a great way to strategize action steps for improvement as well as providing a safe place to build this skill.
