Core Assessments
What is the true measurement of a good leader? Assessments can help leaders determine their preferred
leadership, communication, or personality style. When shared, these assessments enhance interactions between team members through greater understanding of individual members.
The Leadership Circle Profile (TLCP) is a true breakthrough among 360-degree assessments. It is the first to connect a well-researched battery of competencies with the underlying motivations and habits of thought. It reveals the relationship between patterns of action and the internal assumptions that drive behavior. TLCP goes to the source of behavior to get greater leverage on change.
The Energy Leadership Index (E.L.I.) is a one-of-a-kind assessment that enables leaders to hold up mirrors to their perceptions, attitudes, behaviors, and overall leadership capabilities. Unlike many assessments which focus on personality, the E.L.I. is an attitudinal assessment. It measures your level of energy based on your attitude, or perception and perspective of your world. And because attitude is subjective, it can be altered.

Tap into our reservoir of leadership experience, and let
Leadership Unlocked create course content for your needs.
Our Customized Leadership Programs expose the client to proven leadership principles as well as practical management techniques that maximize the leader’s effectiveness and efficiency. These courses stand alone; however, for maximum impact, we believe coaching should accompany any exposure to new leadership concepts. One of the first empirical studies of the effects of coaching conducted in 1997 by Olivero, Bane and Kopelman found that while training alone accounted for a 22.4% increase in productivity, training combined with coaching resulted in an 88% increase in productivity.
Frequently Asked Questions
My manager suggested I get some leadership coaching; does that mean she/he thinks I’m incompetent?
Many people are placed in leadership positions with little understanding of leadership and offered no training. The most successful leaders are learners who understand there is always more to know about leadership.
The suggestion may imply some deficits, but it could also mean your manager sees your potential. Either way, an investment in your leadership development can be beneficial to your career progression. Coaching is a great opportunity for you to discover who you are as a leader and deconstruct or destroy any obstacles that might prevent you from designing a plan and doing the activities that will help you be a more effective leader.
If my company pays for my leadership coaching, will my conversations be confidential?
Confidentiality is a crucial component of coaching that encourages the client to have confidence in the coaching relationship. The signed coaching agreement would be between Leadership Unlocked and you, the individual participant and include a guarantee of confidentiality, despite the payment arrangements.
Is there a difference between individual and group coaching?
Group coaching brings together individuals who may not be connected on an existing team but want a more guided coaching experience around a particular coaching focus. Our Leadership Chromosome SM Leadership Success Accelerator exposes participants to proven leadership philosophies and opportunities to explore, develop and define their own leadership strengths in a group setting. An additional benefit is the opportunity to learn from other leaders. AND Leadership Chromosome SM does include individual coaching to help individuals achieve their best version of leadership!
How would my leadership team benefit from group coaching?
Leaders grow through consistent learning, expert coaching and actual leading. The Agile Leader is our customized Leadership Development Accelerator for existing leadership teams. Participants in The Agile Leader have the same opportunity for discovery as in our group accelerator and the added benefit of a heightened understanding of what their organization expects from their leaders. The goal is leaders who have a greater appreciation of and connection to the organization and the confidence to use the skills they’ve acquired to help attract, retain, and inspire their teams into the future.
