Leadership Assessments
BRING YOUR LEADERSHIP TO LIFE.
Put our science-based leadership assessments to work to uncover the potential in your people and your organization.
Leadership competencies and characteristics can often be hard to see on the surface. At SIGMA, we help organizations measure these qualities as well as other leadership traits and skills that make individuals successful leaders. By utilizing our assessments, you’ll be able to identify the leadership strengths and developmental opportunities of existing and prospective leaders in your organization.

Leadership Assessment FAQs
Leadership assessments are tools that can be used to objectively evaluate leaders on competencies and characteristics that are hard to quantify, and may be hard to see on a surface level.
Leadership assessments should be used by organizations that want to foster leadership development and further their succession planning and talent development efforts.
Leadership tests can measure a multitude of items including personality, behaviour, leadership skills, work styles, occupational stress, and more.
The best leadership assessments are valid, reliable, and objective. They also use continuous measures, which provide a range of results, rather than grouping test takers into particular categories.
