How Does It Work?

Students access their assessment using a complimentary access code provided with the book. They begin by rating themselves on the frequency with which they exhibit 30 proven leadership behaviors. This is an opportunity for self-reflection and is an introduction for the student to the key behaviors they need to engage in frequently to be an effective leader. 

The resulting report offers the student personalized insights into their strengths and areas for improvement. This valuable feedback serves as the foundation for crafting a developmental action plan for the leader.
