What Are Your Leadership Characteristics?
Management and leadership are increasingly complex roles that require an evolving repertoire of competencies and behaviors. A good leader is always open to self-evaluation and opportunities for personal growth and development.

- Self Management
- Organizational Capabilities
- Team Building and Teamwork

The CPI 260tm Coaching Report for Leaders helps leaders to better understand their preferences, attitudes and behaviors in the key areas by assessing 18 leadership characteristics within the five performance areas:
- Self-Awareness

Individual results are compared with those of a comparison group of managers and executives and based on empirical research extending over five decades at the Center for Creative Leadership. Based on the comparison, the report analyzes individual strengths and developmental needs and provides "Suggested Action Steps" to take to gather more information or develop new behaviors.
