    Hi there everyone,

    I'm not sure if I've mentioned this before but I spent the last year
    designing a 360-degree feedback instrument and I'm really interested in
    getting feedback on the ideas behind it. The reason being, it seems to
    me
    that the vast majority of tools on the market solely focus on the three
    key
    fundamentals of leadership, namely 1) having strategic vision 2) being
    able
    to motivate and lead other towards that vision 3) and the ability to
    generate results.

    Therefore, I created a tool that includes these important elements but
    fails
    to neglect new developments in leadership that are also fundamental to
    effective leadership behavior. The second half of my tool looks at the
    emotional intelligence, character, self/other development, and ability
    to
    utilize the principles of organizational justice in leaders. There are
    also
    similar versions for individual contributors and managers, as the
    primary
    version is for individuals with true leadership responsibility in
    organizations.

    I'd love to hear feedback on the thinking behind this tool and I'd be
    happy
    to share more information. There is also information on the website

    Thanks,
