Leadership Is Not A Job Title. It’s Not A Position.

It’s a Competency That Directs the Behavior of People.

Leadership come in all shapes and forms.  Senior executives are expected to be leaders. But so are managers and supervisors.  Some people are natural-born leaders. Some aren’t.  Assigning a job title doesn’t infer good leadership skills. And different roles require proficiency in different leadership competencies.  

Whether you’re looking to identify your next generation of future leaders, develop current managers, or implement your leadership succession plan, Success Performance Solutions are experts in competency assessment tests for leaders and managers.

Why use a leadership competency test? 

Selecting and developing your next leaders, managers, and supervisors is serious business … and expensive in so many ways when make a mistake.  Unfortunately many companies continue to select their leaders based on personality traits or behavior style (DISC) alone.  But that’s not how leadership unfolds. Effective leadership requires skills and abilities, not just a few personality traits. 

A competency assessment test for leaders is used to check an employee’s or candidate’s ability to lead others or manage projects prior to hiring or promoting him. Using competencies to select and develop  employees in leadership roles removes the unconscious bias associated with personality tests and allows management to focus their attention on skills and abilities required to set the vision and lead others.

Leadership is described by a single skill set. Leadership requires the ability to create a positive culture, manage a team, motivate and coach employees, organize projects, establish a focus on customer service and quality to just name a few.  Competent leaders own multiple skills and abilities, the importance and priority of each depends on company strategy, goals, and culture. Consequently, one size does not fit all.  Competencies for senior leaders vs mid-managers vs supervisors varies. And because coping with today’s business environment calls for the ability to tackle complex tasks at an accelerating pace, people need a range of critical skill competencies to face the shifting challenges of today’s world.

That’s why Success Performance Solutions offers standard executive, manager and supervisor competency models along with a comprehensive library from which a company can build its own or customize to its existing competency model.
