Tom Harvey offers clients access to a number of the most highly regarded and reliable assessment tools in leadership development. Among them are his proprietary Leader Vitality Scales.
Used either alone or in combination, these tools offer valuable knowledge to individual leaders embarking on professional growth and development and to organizations looking to build stronger, more professionally vital leadership cultures.
Leader Vitality 360 Scale©
Dr. Harvey developed the Leader Vitality 360 Scale over many years of research and practice in education and leadership. This instrument assesses highly desirable qualities associated with professionally vital leaders and is used solely for the purposes of leader development, not as a performance evaluation tool. The 360-feedback process is a powerful way for leaders to get an accurate appraisal of the brands they project, and provides data that can be used for strategically developing their capacities as leaders. When paired with Executive Coaching, the outcomes are known to create lasting, even transformational impact on individuals and organizations.
Leadership Team Vitality Scale©
The Leadership Team Vitality scale measures the seven essential qualities of professionally vital leadership teams. The data this instrument provides clearly identifies team strengths and weaknesses and areas of consensus or disagreement. When paired with team retreats and targeted skill training, the Leadership Team Vitality assessment process can turn a dysfunctional team into a vital team or a good team into a great team.
Myers-Briggs Type Indicator ® assessment
We also have access the Myer Briggs Type Inventory (MBTI©), the world's most widely used personality assessment. The MBTI identifies the individual preferences people use to perceive the world and make decisions. We use this tool to help leaders, and teams of leaders, better understand the challenges and strengths of their unique personal styles. To build professionally vital relationships we believe it is essential for leaders to understand the impact of their personal and professional styles.
EQ-I 2.0 © assessment
Our assessment toolbox includes the EQ-I 2.0©, the first scientifically validated emotional intelligence (EQ) tool in the world. EQ is a set of emotional and social skills that influence the way we perceive and express ourselves, develop and maintain social relationships, cope with challenges, and use emotional information in an effective and meaningful way. We believe that EQ training and education is critical to the development of professionally vital leaders.
