Development Tools

LeaderShaper ©

HIGH FLYERS aiming for the top of the organisation need to know whether you can succeed as a potential leader! Do you have moments of doubt when those around you react unexpectedly? Are your plans sometimes scuppered, rather than supported, because of the way you’ve presented yourself?

There is nothing like the LeaderShaper App to give high potentials a sense of how Emotionally Intelligent (EI) you are.

LEIPA ®

Leadership & Emotional Intelligence Performance Accelerator - 360º ®. This advanced on-line assessment and development tool identifies an individual’s behavioural and operational strengths plus their development needs to improve their leadership performance. It measures competence in the context of their own role and the culture of the organisation. LEIPA compares different leadership styles against their importance in the executive’s current role, providing a gap analysis.

If you are a coach wishing to consider this powerful tool in your organisation or practice, please take a look here.

Culture Shaper

LeaderShape HAS INTEGRATED KEY RESEARCH findings regarding organisational culture to develop a unique way of shaping your workplace for success. We identify the current and ideal approaches using our own LOCS tool (LeaderShape Organisational Culture Shaper survey).

Emotional Intelligence - Selection & Development

It is often said ‘hire for attitude, train for skills’ as a motivated person who is a ‘round peg in a round hole’ will learn new skills very easily. On the other hand a fundamental mismatch of ethos and culture will derail a hire or a career that, on paper, looks like a good skills fit for a role.

Leading Beyond the Ego: How to Become a Transpersonal Leader

TRANSPERSONAL LEADERS operate beyond their ego, continuing personal development and learning. They are radical, ethical and authentic while emotionally intelligent and caring. They create performance-enhancing and sustainable cultures.

This book (published by Routledge, March 2018) is a game-changer in how it provides a journey for leaders to develop into Transpersonal Leaders through managing both their ego and their emotions, by increasing their awareness and bringing their values to full consciousness.

An essential read for current and aspiring organisational leaders, HR professionals, executive coaches and mentors, Leading Beyond the Ego is a vital point of reference for anyone in a leadership position who wants to embrace the right kind of leadership for today and the future. Watch and listen to a recording of the book launch webinar describing the purpose and content of the book.
