Enhanced Leadership Development through Personality Assessment
Identifying and nurturing future leaders and developing current leadership have long been accepted strategies for increasing organizational effectiveness. Even in these tough economic times, the criticality of leadership development has continued to escalate - with good reason. Organizations that invest in leadership development consistently outperform those that don't. And the development and retention of key leaders will be essential as organizations navigate the current environment and strategize for the eventual turnaround. This course reviews strategies for successfully utilizing personality assessment to accelerate development of leaders in organizations.

This course is designed for Human Resource and Organizational Development Professionals; Psychologists; Coaches; Trainers; and others who are currently engaged in leadership development or are looking to expand their practice into the leadership development arena.
Learning Objectives
