Complete Training Kit for Dimensions of Leadership Profile
The Dimensions of Leadership Profile is a self-directed learning instrument designed to help individuals in your organization discover what they value in themselves as leaders, learn what kinds of leaders they want to follow, and determine the dimensions of leadership needed by your organization.
The Dimensions of Leadership Profile is designed to strengthen your organization in three ways:
- Discover how you want to lead. You'll better understand how you are likely to make use of a leadership opportunity. You'll see how you contribute to a group's success and learn how to better plan for your own leadership development
-
Learn what kinds of leaders you want to follow. Find out what people need and want in a leader. Discover the kinds of leadership they want to support. Results offer valuable feedback to company leaders, helping them to see how others perceive their contributions.
-
Determine the dimensions of leadership needed by your organization. Every organization is faced with unique challenges, each of which may require a different combination of leadership skills. With the insights gained from the Dimensions of Leadership Profile, you can more purposefully recruit and encourage potential leaders to contribute where needed.
Discovering and Developing Leadership Potential
In a successful organization, leaders can be found at every level — from the boardroom to the mailroom, from the chairman’s office to the customer service desk. This is particularly true in organizations that have given up elaborate hierarchies in favor of a team-oriented approach to leadership and management. Leadership is also important in Total Quality Management and is one of the evaluation criteria for the Malcolm Baldrige quality award.
Expand Your Definition of Leadership
Leaders come in many varieties, ranging from the charismatic visionary to the unassuming team player who helps peers work together to accomplish goals set by others. Most leaders display several leadership characteristics or “dimensions of leadership.” What’s more, a follower can become a leader and a leader can spend time as a follower.
Discover the Twelve Dimensions of Leadership
The Dimensions of Leadership Profile allows learners to explore leadership from one of three points of view: self as a leader, another person as a leader, or the need for leadership. The profile then guides learners in their personal assessment of four broad aspects of leadership:
- Character
- Analysis
- Accomplishment
- Interaction
Finally, learners determine how they view twelve specific dimensions of leadership:
- Enthusiasm
- Integrity
- Self-renewal
- Courage
- Perceiving
- Judgment
- Performing
- Problem solving
- Team building
- Collaboration
- Inspiring
- Serving others
