What does this assessment measure?: Conchie's Executive Leadership Online Assessment measures innate Talents that drive enhanced leadership performance.
How is this assessment different from others I've taken before?: Rather than taking an inventory of your personality, skills, or competencies, we measure more stable, enduring traits, characteristics, and dispositions that are a more reliable predictor of an individual's potential to reach the highest levels of executive leadership.
How do I know the assessment is fair?: The assessment has been rigorously tested for adverse impact by sex and race and has been found to be one of the fairest online assessments that is available.
How do I know that the assessment is valid?: Validity is measured against performance criteria and results of multiple validation studies have shown a strong, positive correlation of assessment results to leadership performance.
How do I know the assessment is reliable?: Two measures of reliability are considered. For internal assessment reliability, Cronbach's Alpha is used with a current reliability score of 0.84. For external reliability, test - re-test measures are used, and the precise percentages are reported in The Five Talents That Really Matter, chapter 3 page 59.

What will the relative strength of my Talents show me?: Becoming the best leader you can be requires an objective picture of your leadership Talents and the areas that come more easily and naturally to you.

What does my percentage score tell me?: The Five Talents That Really Matter describes the very best leaders we studied to build the model for our Executive Leadership Online Assessment. The strength of your leadership profile will place you in the first, second, third or fourth quartile and provide a score that represents your percentage match to the very best leaders we have studied.

Your report will describe the actions you can take to both develop your Talents and manage any potential deficiencies or blind spots.
