Leadership Explorer® is a subjective but highly informative diagnostic instrument for people in leadership and management positions.

Developed and used exclusively by FutureShape, Leadership Explorer® comprises a 90-minute conversation, a written report and a 60-minute personal planning session.

Leadership Explorer® is used by leaders and managers to ascertain their strengths, determine possible development areas and create useful and appropriate plans to enhance their leadership performance.

The instrument can be used by leaders at all levels in an organisation, and is of particular use to those in transitional stages of their management career, or for those in the early stages of their leadership journey.

Leadership Explorer® gathers information and feedback about the way that colleagues respond to the communication, leadership and management behaviours of the participant.

The process, the report and the feedback coaching session all encourage the participant to make reflective choices about future action, even when they are challenged by the feedback they receive.

Leadership Explorer® can also be used in conjunction with one of the 360° feedback instruments offered by FutureShape to provide an even more thorough appraisal of leadership effectiveness.
