We all know that being Agile is essential if we are to move quickly enough to stay relevant. We also know that for breakthrough performance, we must act in the face of uncertainty, stay fluid until the time is right, anticipate and navigate changes, even remain passionate in failure, maintaining composure through all of it. Yet, this attribute of extraordinary leadership has been difficult to quantify. We work to cultivate Agility, but how do we measure it?
Agile Leader Potential (ALP) is a new breed of assessment that provides feedback on this high-value skillset. By quantifying a leader’s tendencies to be Agile, and providing feedback on skills in four contributing attributes, we at Heidrick help them to celebrate what they already do well, and provide signficant data points for constructing a path to capitalize on personal strengths and address challenges.
