What Does the Bible Say About a Woman Leader

The 20 questions that comprise this diagnostic are organized across 4 unique dimensions - Personality, Proficiencies, People and Presence. I call it the " 4Ps Leadership Snapshot. " The assessment is quite easy to administer. While this survey can be leveraged in a variety of ways, including within a "360-evaluation" format, by reporting-line manager to subordinates, or simply used as an interview script by a hiring manager / hiring committee, it's worth taking on your own to identify your leadership strengths as well as to recognize some areas for improvement.

The scale that you use is up to you. High, Medium and Low works just fine. But, you can spruce it up to any way you like using a numbered and / or a weighted scale as you see fit. Regardless, take it and it will give you a snapshot of where you are as a leader and will provide a perspective on where you can work to do better.

To close, my firm's use of this diagnostic indicates that there is a high correlation between the archetype leadership attributes brought forward in the 4P Leadership Snapshot and success as a leader. While self-assessments can be skewed (some people tend to grade themselves uncompromisingly, while others are more apt to be soft graders when it comes to evaluating one's own performance), this tool should still be able to help you to see what you do well and where you need some work. As always, if you'd like to some assistance in bringing this type of diagnostic to your organization, please reach out.
