 s we
move into the 21st century, our fascination with leaders and leadership continues. MSD has been working for over 30 years to close the
gap between theory and practice. What we have discovered through
our practice and research is that leadership "style" is much less
important than leadership "presence." Leadership style is what we
see from the outside while presence is what we learn about the
leader that is inside. Presence is a leader's way of being. It
is the living out of knowledge and values in ways such as taking a
stand on an issue or by modeling specific behaviors that are rooted
in one's belief system. Our leadership consulting services and
programs are designed to help leaders understand their style and
shape their presence.
Executive Assessment and Coaching
n
organization's future success is directly related to the quality of
its top leaders. With today's rapidly changing, highly competitive
and complex business environment, the challenges facing American
executives are greater than ever before. Forward thinking
organizations are replacing outdated management development with
something more effective in the new economy: continuous
self-improvement and leadership development for senior-level
executive. The Executive Assessment and Development (EAD) program
has helped thousands of top-level executives broaden their skills,
abilities, and talents so they can lead their organizations to
success in today's complex business environment. Organizations
that have benefited from the EAD program include Fortune 500
companies, hospitals, banks, transportation, insurance, and utility
companies as well as start-up, high-tech companies.
360-Degree Feedback Systems
t has been reported that complete 360-degree or multi-source
appraisals are now being used by more than 10 percent of U.S.
organizations, with many more organizations employing some aspect
of these systems. A well-established 360-degree feedback enables organizational members to receive performance-related feedback
anonymously from direct reports, peers, superiors, and others.
While the feedback can provide valuable feedback, it must be
designed and administered according to guidelines that ensure
validity and effectiveness. MSD's 360-degree leadership instrument is based on over 20 years of research and professional experience. It measures
important components of job accountabilities, traits,
characteristics, skills, and behaviors that are linked to
effective leadership performance.
