Leadership Development
Integro helps leaders around the world bring organizational vision into reality. In addition to some outstanding development processes and systems, Integro provides several highly effective tools that can help leaders focus on key areas of human performance:
Strategic Alignment Survey™
The Strategic Alignment Survey™ (SAS) is an on line survey product that provides a “measuring stick” for the essentials of performance effectiveness. Not a satisfaction survey, this assessment measures employees’ perception of the work environment also known as organizational culture:
- What is the level of trust in your organization?
- How well are Purpose, Values and Vision and Goals communicated to your staff?
- Are staff aligned (“on board”) with these critical performance factors?
- How do employees perceive the behaviors of their co-workers?
- What values are most important to the staff?
The survey includes international benchmarks for each section. The Strategic Alignment Survey™ is essential to helping to understand and improve your organizational culture.
Team Alignment Questionnaire™
The Team Alignment Questionnaire is an internet based survey that measures the key elements of team effectiveness. For 25 years, Integro has utilized the Team Alignment Questionnaire™ (TAQ) to measure two key areas that have an impact on employee alignment and engagement:
Group Trust Level Report
The degree to which group members practice trust building behaviors
Group Alignment Report
The degree to which group members are aligned with the organization’s Purpose, Values, Vision, Goals, Procedures and Roles.
Why measure these two areas?
Team alignment is critical! When employees are not aligned with the organization’s goals and strategies, the right work does not get done… or it does not get done right.
When a team feels connected to the purpose and vision of the organization, they have a clear understanding of how important the products and services you provide are and also see a clear connection between what they do and the success of your organization in fulfilling its purpose.
As a result, aligned teams see their work as meaningful. When there is a high level of trust throughout the organization:
- Expectations are clear, disagreements are discussed and resolved
- Information is exchanged freely, feelings and opinions are openly discussed and people do not have hidden agendas
- Differences are valued, employees feel respected for their contribution, and have input into how the organization can be more successful
- People keep their commitments, strive for excellence in everything they do, and can count on each other for support
This is a place where people want to work… a workplace based on trust and personal responsibility.
Leadership Development Assessment (360)
The Leadership Development Assessment (LDA) is an internet based 360 degree measurement of the competencies of effective leaders. It consists of 3 general areas of competence:
- Managing Self
- Managing the Environment
- Building Trust
Within these three areas, the assessment measures 26 specific elements of competence. The performance feedback in these areas of leadership competence are obtained from multiple persons representing one of 5 different viewpoints (Self, Manager, Peers, Direct Reports and Internal Customers). The confidential responses are presented graphically, in text and include narrative “development notes”.
The LDA is an excellent tool for coaching and development and is particularly helpful in succession planning efforts.
