The CheckPoint 360 is an excellent tool to use at the beginning of an executive coaching engagement. It’s our preferred version of a 360-degree survey allowing for an executive’s manager, peers, and directs to rate them objectively on 8 different leadership traits as well as 18 key sub-skills. The results also provide clear and actionable recommendations for what to focus on for improvement. We can provide this survey as a standalone product as part of your annual leadership development program or embedded within an executive coaching engagement.

The Suite of Emotional Intelligence (EI) assessments from Genos International are designed to help raise one’s awareness of their present level of EI and provide guidance and ideas to raise it.

We strongly believe in this statement and are doing what we can by pairing these assessments with EI-related coaching to help leaders and managers strengthen this skill.
