Pre-Program Instruments
Approximatly three to four weeks prior to the program start date you will receive two assessment instruments: The Leadership Practices Inventory and the Meyers-Briggs Type Indictor.
Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI)
- LPI Overview: The Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI) was developed by James Kouzes and Barry Posner, authors of the best selling book, The Leadership Challenge (2007). You, and several people, who have observed you in your leadership role, will complete the LPI. The inventory or questionnaire measures your leadership behavior - not your IQ, personality, style or general management skills. The results of the assessment will provide you with a greater awareness of your strengths and areas for improvement and development.
- LPI Results: At the program, you will receive a personal report of your LPI results and will have the opportunity to review your feedback and develop an action plan for strengthening your ability to be a better leader than you already are.
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator®
- MBTI Overview: Learn about your personality type and others through the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI), which describes your personality as a collection of preferences for how you are energized, how you take in information, how you make decisions, and how you choose to relate to the world.
- MBTI Results: Results from the MBTI are confidential and will be returned to you at the first session. The MBTI has been used in dozens of leadership programs and participants consistently find this a valuable experience.
