Individual Assessment

 

It’s about you.

With your immense responsibility as a leader, you may well be putting the company’s needs before your own. This is a great chance to focus on you.

 

Methodology of Our Leadership Assessment

 
 
 
 
 
 

We believe leadership assessment is more than a test.

With your immense responsibility as a leader, you may well be putting the company’s needs before your own. This is a great chance to focus on you.

As part of our multi-faceted personal assessment process, you’ll take a deep dive into your own story: revisiting how you got here; building self-awareness; exploring your vision for the future.

You’ll gain clarity around the challenges you’re facing as a leader, your measured leadership capabilities to face them, get feedback on next steps, and renew your confidence and sense of self. 

We offer Assessments as standalone services or in combination with any of our other offerings.

 

Ascent Assessment adds value for you and your organization.

  1. Fit to Role: comparing any person to any leadership role - for selection, promotion, moves, or career shifts

  2. Benchmarking: measuring more than good or bad - good, better, or best

  3. Development: knowing how fast one can develop, and bringing behavioral specifics to development action

  4. Training: identifying the behavioral levels of capability for different levels of the organization

  5. Culture Alignment: moving beyond just doing the job to being part of the culture

  6. CEO/C-Level Succession Planning: knowing role level requirements and how fast one can develop, a new CEO or C-Level leader can evaluate their team for future successors, even years in advance

  7. Motivation for Change: people only change when they want to; providing clarity around path and process makes it happen

  8. Talent management: using all the above to enable an organization to maximize their people and their performance over time

And we don’t just do it ourselves - we teach organizations to do it to our exacting and rigorous standards, with customized and powerful measurement methods.

“63-65% of companies identify leadership development as their #1 current and future human capital concern…”

— Joint report from The Conference Board and McKinsey & Company

 
 

“. . . Yet only 19% of organizations rate themselves as effective at developing leaders.”

— Brandon Hall Group’s State of Leadership Development

 

“Being a senior executive for 25 years, I believed I knew who I was and how to run my business life.

Ascent’s assessment gave me a much clearer picture of myself and helped me define the path to follow in order to become a better professional. This has amazing value.”

— Frederic Vieil, President and CEO, Hexagone
