Learn more about the PLI through the Association of Coaching webinar with guest expert Juliette Alban-Metcalfe, CEO of Real World Group

Posted on 19th February 2019

The next complimentary Member-benefit webinar will also show how behaviour is more closely linked to performance than personality, and provides more immediate scope for development for your coachees. 

Do you use diagnostic tools as part of your leadership coaching practice? If you do, you will know that the majority of leadership self-assessments focus on personality factors. Very few focus on behaviour, and those that do tend not to be well validated. In the next Collaborative Conversations with Masters session on 22 February you will hear about a new behavioural assessment tool for leaders. Occupational Psychologist and Chief Executive of Real World Group, Juliette Alban-Metcalfe, will uncover why using a behavioural-based tool as a basis for coaching can be more useful than a personality tool in a range of situations. 

Many coaches employ diagnostic tools as part of their practice in enhancing leaders’ effectiveness. If you are one of those coaches, you will know that the vast majority of good quality leadership self-assessments focus on personality factors. Very few focus on behaviour, and those that do tend not to be well validated. 

In many situations, using a behavioural-based tool as a basis for coaching can be more effective than a personality tool. This is because behaviour is more closely linked to performance than personality, and provides more immediate scope for development. 

Exploring leadership this way also provides a greater opportunity for addressing important issues of diversity and inclusion, innovation, readiness for change, work-related stress and many others. This conversation will outline contemporary leadership theory and how coaches can enhance their practice using an approach that clearly addresses the key challenges organisations and leaders face today. 

In this webinar, The Association for Coaching will interview Juliette Alban-Metcalfe to find out: 

  • How leadership assessments based on personality or behaviour differ
  • How leadership behaviours make a critical difference to key organisational challenges today such as diversity and inclusion, stress, innovation and readiness for change
  • How you can assist your coachees to become more effective using a cutting edge leadership behaviour assessment
