A Leader is defined in many ways– to some, he is a person in a superior position; to some, he is the anchor that takes the organization forward and to some, he is the inspiration and the role mode. Some of these views are more traditional and myopic while others give a broader perspective of what a leader does. Organizations today exist in a very volatile ecosystem and therefore the role of leaders has evolved greatly over the years.
Leaders today are not only visionaries but also experts in their fields and agents of change and innovation. However, even these definitions of a leader a vague have a very broad scope. To train and develop leaders, we need something more tangible to go with.
The Everything DiSC Work of Leaders is one such powerful assessment tool that brings clarity to the role of leaders and assist in designing impactful leadership interventions. It brings together the compelling narrative of DiSC and the VAE model based on extensive research by Julie Straw.
The VAE Model, outlines the three fundamental responsibilities of any leader: Crafting a Vision, Building Alignment and Championing Execution.
The Everything DiSC Work of Leaders, defined leadership as a one-to-many relationship. Using the Work of Leaders assessment, leaders can understand their DiSC style and their leadership style. The strong narrative helps in creating powerful conversations within the leadership teams.
Leaders understand their behavioural priorities – their behavioural strengths and challenges. This deep insight into behaviours can help leaders in building strong inter-personal relationships and connect with people more effectively. The DiSC Model not only helps leaders understand themselves better, but also other people. Since leaders deal with multiple stakeholders and leadership is defined a one-to-many relationship, understanding human behaviour better is the key to effective leadership.
The assessment also provides a detailed analysis of the leadership style based on Vision, Alignment and Execution. Work of Leaders enumerates the key drivers of VAE and the behaviours that are critical for a leader’s success.
With this assessment, leaders can gain a clear understanding of what Vision, Alignment and Execution entails, global best practices in leadership and the specific leadership challenges of the individual. The Work of Leaders, goes a step further and provides clear and specific tips for improvement – these action points and strategies can help leaders sustain the learning journey into the future. The Work of Leaders Group Report – an exciting support tool, can provide deep insights into leadership style of the entire Leadership Team.
Our expert trainers and coaches can design and deliver powerful leadership interventions based on Everything DiSC Work of Leaders. Leaders can also join our DiSC Certification programs for better understanding of DiSC and human behaviour.
