Personality Test for Leadership Insight
Get insight into your personality to accelerate your leadership career
Know Yourself to Drive Leadership Success
Who we are affects how we lead. Unfortunately, most leaders are unaware of how their personal tendencies affect others – and how those tendencies hold them back from success in leadership roles.
Unlike a standard personality test, DDI offers a full personality experience that helps you understand how your personal tendencies affect your leadership career.
In less than an hour, you answer a series of quick questions about your preferences and values. Then you get a feedback session of up to 90 minutes with a DDI-certified coach to understand your results. Through this experience, you’ll be able to:
- Leverage your natural strengths in leadership
- Recognize your potential derailers that can appear under stress, heavy workloads and times of change
- Learn techniques to improve your self-awareness and better manage your personality.
And the best part? You can get started right now.
Your Experience
At DDI, our personality test is called the Global Leadership Inventories, or “GLIs.” The GLIs are three sets of questions about your personality that create a well-rounded view of your strengths, challenges, and values. The GLIs include:
- The Leadership Effectiveness Inventory: These questions assess your personal qualities that promote success in your work, relationships, learning, and life.
- The Leadership Challenge Inventory: These questions measure eleven patterns of interpersonal behaviors that tend to appear when you’re under stress. These patterns represent your potential “derailers” which may limit your leadership effectiveness if you don’t manage them.
- The Leadership Values Inventory: These questions measure your values and interests. These help you to understand your motivations as a leader, and help you think strategically about finding personal fulfillment in your career.
Afterward, you’ll receive an email to set up a time with your DDI Executive Coach to review your results. Then you’ll receive a detailed guidebook outlining implications of your scores and techniques to address key areas going forward.
