Leadership Skills Profile
|
Description
The Leadership Skills Profile (LSP) has been enhanced to provide a
flexible, customizable leadership solution designed to help identify and
develop the
"best leaders", with "best"
being defined by your organization and its unique requirements. It is
also ideal for succession planning. The LSP leadership model predicts 42
competencies critical to effective leadership, and includes insightful
narrative text discussing the implications of one's personality to their
job performance.
The LSP is comprised of the following complementary products:
• LSP Selection Report (LSP-SR)
• LSP Development Report (LSP-DR)
• LSP Selection + Development Report (LSP-S+D)
These assessments are closely aligned with the powerful and convenient
SigmaRADIUS 360 degree feedback tool.
LSP Products
LSP Selection Report (LSP-SR)
The LSP-SR is a cutting-edge assessment for identifying and selecting
top leadership talent.
It predicts performance on 42 leadership dimensions and explains, in
detail, how the respondent's personality will affect his or her
leadership effectiveness. It also highlights any
"red flags" for further follow-up.
The LSP-SR can be produced in a
standard format, or it can reflect the specific requirements of a
particular job by using established benchmarks.
LSP Development Report (LSP-DR)
The LSP Development Report leverages decades of research on the relation
between personality and leadership performance to provide an advanced
leadership development solution. This comprehensive report provides the
tools
and techniques that empower leaders
to realize their full potential. Major components include 1) a Snapshot
of the respondent's Personal Strengths and Development Opportunities on
the LSP's 42 dimensions of
leadership, 2) a Personal Development Workbook, and 3) detailed
Development Feedback
that provides concrete strategies for improving one's leadership
effectiveness.
LSP Selection + Development (LSP-S+D)
The LSP-SR and LSP-DR when used in tandem, deliver a powerful,
complementary
leadership solution. Furthermore, when benchmarks are in place, the
reports
allow you to
select and develop leaders against a common set of requirements specific
to a given position.
LSP Enhancements
Consistent with SIGMA's ongoing commitment to quality and value, we are
pleased to
announce the following enhancements to the LSP:
• The LSP is now Customizable
SIGMA puts you in the driver's seat and delivers a tailored solution
that allows
you to align
the LSP with your specific organizational requirements.
• Optimized Narrative Report
The narrative text delivered in the LSP has been refined and the scoring
optimized to enhance
its predictive ability.
• Integrated Leadership Solution
The 42 performance dimensions predicted by the LSP Development and
Selection reports provide a robust model of leadership. These flexible
tools
can increase the effectiveness of
your succession planning and talent
management systems. They have the
added advantage
of being readily
aligned with our 360 degree feedback instrument: the SigmaRADIUS.
Development
The development of the LSP began with the careful selection of items
from three robust and respected standardized personality measures: the
Personality Research Form (PRF), the Jackson Personality
Inventory-Revised (JPI-R), and the Survey of Work Styles (SWS). The LSP
questions (or "items") were selected from a pool of over 4500 using the
most advanced quantitative techniques available.
Reliability and Validity
The PRF, JPI-R, and SWS, the measures upon which the LSP is based, have
consistently displayed solid evidence of convergent and discriminant
validity with self and peer ratings, as well as with numerous other
measures. The research literature in psychology contains approximately
2000 articles citing one or more of these measures. Moreover, all
measures
show meaningful correlations with executive performance. Reliability
estimates of each measure’s scales are reported in detail in the
respective manuals
