Assessments are an excellent way to begin rich and meaningful discussion about personal and professional development. Rather than using them as a "report card", they serve as a catalyst for asking the kinds of questions that enable new insight to emerge and growth to occur. Abby is certified to administer and coach to the following assessments:

The Leadership Circle Profile is a 360-degree assessment that helps leaders focus on the rich set of competencies needed to lead in the midst of complexity and rapid change. This assessment is unique in that it reveals the patterns of thought that influence behavior, thus enabling leaders to be more flexible and adaptive, establishing the conditions for people to thrive while achieving organizational goals.

The Leadership Circle Culture Survey reveals opportunities for leadership development for the executive suite team or a team managing projects. It reveals the gap between the way people regard the current leadership culture and their preferred culture or other successful organization cultures. It establishes a compelling rationale for change, delineates cultural challenges associated with mergers, acquisitions and restructuring plans and correlates leadership to productivity, profits, turnover, and other bottom line metrics. This helps focus leadership development efforts. Learn more.

The CPI Spritual Intelligence Assessment reveals opportunities for spiritual and emotional growth. "SQ" or Spiritual Intelligence is defined by CPI as "the ability to behave with Wisdom and Compassion, while maintaining inner and outer peace, regardless of the circumstances." Spiritual Intelligence is an innate human intelligence – but like any intelligence it must be developed. This means that we can describe it and measure it by looking at the skills or competencies that comprise Spiritual Intelligence. Learn more.
