When it comes to leadership assessments, there’s never a “one-size-fits-all” approach, says Peter Stewart.

“There are some key questions we need to think about before you begin the assessment process so that you are selecting the right method, you're selecting the right resources or formal assessments or whatever you're doing, to help get the results you want,” he says.

In today’s episode, Daniel and Peter take a deep dive into leadership assessments, examining the purpose of assessments, the typical use cases for assessments, which types of assessments are appropriate, and how to understand assessment reports.

Tune in to learn:

• Four clear cases for leadership assessments
• Mistakes and pitfalls to avoid in assessing leaders
• The most important things to do before assessing leaders

Having a formal leadership assessment process is one of the best ways for organizations to make sure they select the right leaders for their open positions and further develop those leaders for future roles. When designed and implemented for the unique needs of the organization, a good assessment process will help optimize and integrate individual leadership strengths and help both the organization and the leader deliver results.
