CEO Assessment and personal development

---

Our assessment protocols provide directors and CEOs with the basis for continuous improvement and the profile necessary to make informed succession decisions. Two such assessments are particularly relevant in this regard:

1. The Profile XT is used for selection, development, and succession. It is designed and developed to be role-related, addressing a multitude of performance and "personal mastery" issues and yielding insights for highly effective remediation as appropriate.

Measures: The "Total Person" along three domains:

• Cognitive: verbal and numerical capacity
• Behavioral: traits impacting role performance
• Occupational: relative interest/attachment to classes of work

Time required: 60 minutes/internet-based; no administrator or "proctoring" needed.

Customizable for organizational, divisional, subsidiary or geographic entities.

2. The CheckPoint 360° appraisal is used to help leaders become more effective thru feedback from the full "circle" of people with whom they interact...board members, peers and members of their team. The findings highlight collectively perceived competencies and relative alignment, explaining opportunities for improvement in specific, actionable terms.

The Process: Using the CheckPoint 360° survey...

• The CEO does a self-rating
• The Chairman or lead director rates the CEO
• Each director individually rates the CEO
• Direct Reports rate the CEO

All survey information remains completely confidential within the spirit of the governing board's rules of engagement.
