Assessments

Work-Life Effectiveness Assessment
Work-life effectiveness is the foundation for high performance. It's rooted in skills, principles and practices that bring about a state of balance. Balance is a dynamic dance that depends on knowledge of where to focus one's efforts. The questions in this 40-item assessment will do just that. This assessment is a powerful way to send the message to people in your organization that you care about their balance. Contact Barbara to discuss bringing this to your organization.

Work-Life Effectiveness Assessment for Executives
It probably won't surprise you to find out that over 70% of executives have significant problems with work-life balance. This needs careful management so that both performance and well-being are addressed. This 40-item assessment is a modified version of the Work-Life Effectiveness Assessment that has been specially designed to address the unique challenges of an executive lifestyle. Send an email and ask for some sample questions from the assessment to be sent to you.

360 interviews
While the traditional 360 multi-rater assessment has its place, interviews by an objective, neutral third party are an even better way to get feedback that is highly relevant. With 360 interviews, a skilled coach interviews the people who are most strategic to you, to your success, and to your development. After the interviewing is completed, the coach consolidates and delivers the information to you. This approach is especially valuable for executives who want develop their leadership potential. If you're interested in this tailored approach to understanding how you affect others, contact Barbara to discuss coaching options.

When an entire team is assessed, the sources of miscommunication can be identified and the behaviors to focus on are very clear.
