The
PS Leader Model is the result of years of extensive research
involving over 12,000 supervisors, managers, and executives
in both private and public sector organizations. This research
was conducted to determine which specific skills top performing
leaders possess that set them apart from average and ineffective
leaders. The result was the definition of 24 "most critical"
leadership competencies, which are outlined in the PS Leader
Model. These competency areas involved several years of extensive
research and validation in the public and private sector in
the USA.
PS
Leader is unique in its design in as much as it guides participants
through 82 behavior based questions, but asking for responses
in two independent but related scales. Firstly individuals
and their raters when completing the 360-degree version of
the assessment are asked to indicate the required proficiency
of the behavior before then asking for perceived current proficiency.
This helps to create an extremely useful comparative analyzis
which shows the gap between what is current and required future
performance across all 24 competency categories. |
