Management Team Assessment
For the most part, there’s little objective assessment of a management team’s individual & collective orientations & approaches to these key business needs:
- What is their strategic versus operational orientation and how does that affect the growth trajectory?
- Is there an entrepreneurial versus corporate versus institutional culture?
- How does the leadership team deal with “risk”, and how does that impact decision making and direction to seize opportunities?
- Is there more of a “task focus” or “relationship focus”, and how does that affect internal/external communications?
- How does the management team deal with “change” – is there a “change agent” orientation to their leadership style?
- Is there an ability to develop creative solutions to problems or opportunities, and how does that affect your competitive advantage in the marketplace?
- Can the leadership team work as a “team” or a collection of individuals – how does that impact interpersonal relationships & trust?
- Is there a “leadership style” that the management team demonstrates, and how does it affect employee productivity & engagement?
Management Team Development
A great deal of effort goes into assembling & building leadership teams in an organization – probably more than at any other level, and necessarily so. Management team development begins with an objective & accurate understanding of the above influences and the management team’s collective willingness to work towards what they agree is the most effective leadership style for this point in their organizational growth.
Pro.file Performance System has a unique and objective process for defining the individual & collective leadership styles through a management team assessment process, and then facilitating a one-day leadership development retreat to review the leadership team’s results and clarify their collective impact on the organization’s growth & future.
