 M. Kouzes and Barry Z. Posner, now considered to be a leadership classic, then LPI Online, an extension of the research done by the authors, is a good choice. It is a product with enough credibility to convince executives to utilize the feedback process themselves before rolling it out to the rest of the management team.

LPI Online is an interactive tool designed to administer the Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI), a 360-degree leadership assessment instrument created by Kouzes and Posner. According the publisher, The Leadership Practices Inventory has been used in print form by close to 1 million people worldwide. Now, LPI Online offers simplified, time-saving administration and immediate, streamlined results and 24/7 web-based access for LPI administrators and participants alike.

The assessment is designed around five practices described in The Leadership Challenge:

*Model the way

*Challenge the process

*Inspire a shared vision

*Enable others to act

*Encourage the heart

Within these practice areas of leadership, there are a total of 30 leadership behaviors or competencies. The behaviors are rated by "observers" on a scale of 1 to 10. When leaders receive their report, they are able to look at the results in a variety of ways and compare their responses to the average response and the response of different categories of observers.

The strengths of the product are the ease of use and the content, which is based on the research of credible experts. The additional materials help achieve the goal of creating a complete leadership development process. Instead of spending time "Spending Time" is the first single released by Christian artist Stellar Kart.

RECOMMENDATION

I strongly recommend this tool if one or both of the following conditions are true for your organization: (1) The executive leaders are strong believers in the work of Kouzes and Posner, and (2) Your organization has never done a 360-degree process before, and your leaders are unsure about feedback. Leaders who respect the expertise behind the tool can be convinced to utilize a 360-degree tool. Keep in mind that any 360-degree process is just one aspect of an effective leadership development process. The process alone will not lead to behavior change Behavior change refers to any transformation or modification of human behavior. Such changes can occur intentionally, through behavior modification, without intention, or change rapidly in situations of mental illness.  unless you also provide follow-up follow-up,
