360º Assessments
Take self-awareness to the next level with the our 360° assessments. Utilize anonymous feedback from colleagues, managers, and direct reports to understand how others perceive you and add to your personal growth toolbox.
DISC 360° Assessment
Are you fully aware of how your actions (and associated motives) are perceived by co-workers, colleagues, and direct reports? Complete a DISC 360° assessment with observer feedback. You might be surprised by the results! Many experienced leaders believe that the intentions of their communication and organisational practices are “obvious” to those around them, often overlooking costly misinterpretations of their actions. Our DISC 360° provides a complete picture with the help of anonymously submitted honest and candid feedback.
Emotional Intelligence (EIQ-2) 360º Assessment
The EIQ-2 assessment is a measure of your understanding of how your behaviour affects those around you. However, there is often a disconnect between how we think others perceive us and the reality of how our actions are perceived. This disconnect is where the EIQ-2 360° assessment fills in the gaps.
Even the best, most self-aware manager may have blind spots in emotional awareness. With the anonymous, honest, and candid feedback from our EIQ-2 360° providing the bigger picture, behaviours can be modified to support intentions, and your actions can be interpreted as they were intended.
Leadership Effectiveness 360º Assessment
While everyone has innate qualities that make them natural leaders, leadership is a skill that can be learned, practiced, and improved. The insight from this assessment will unlock and enhance the parts of leadership that are natural strengths and help you work on areas with potential for improvement to make you a more well-rounded, balanced, and adaptable leader.
The Leadership Effectiveness 360° assessment provides today’s leaders an effective measurement tool from which they can objectively assess their current leadership strengths and areas for improvement.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the benefit of a 360° assessment versus a self-assessment?
A self-assessment is from a single perspective – yours. The EIQ-2 360° is designed to reveal the bigger picture of how those around you perceive your Emotional Intelligence. By opening yourself up to receiving feedback, you can examine the differences between your intentions and others’ perceptions. The EIQ-2 360 improves your ability to adapt, as an understanding of both self and others is achieved.
EIQ-2 360° gives general information about others’ perceptions of me, but I’d like to know specifics about why they think that. How can I learn more?
Ask! The EIQ-2 360° is intended to offer you an overall view of how those around you perceive your Emotional Intelligence and actions and reveal areas where they may be misunderstood. The information in the report can be used as a starting point for discussion to ask clarifying questions. The key to this conversation is that it must be safe for feedback to be shared. Come to the conversation with authentic curiosity and a desire to understand what others are experiencing.
Is the feedback provided in the 360° anonymous? How many observer responses are needed?
The feedback presented in the report is anonymous. A minimum of three observer responses are needed to maintain anonymity, and the 360° report will not generate until three responses are received. An unlimited number of observers can be invited to participate, and the cost is the same whether you have three observer responses or 300. We recommend inviting as many observers as possible for the best overall snapshot.
