Leader Manager Profile
Leader Manager Profile
Leaders and managers play unique roles: leaders inspire and drive change, while managers focus on structure and efficiency. Yet, today’s fast-paced business climate demands managers to balance both skill sets. The Leader Manager Profile (LMP) sets a new standard by clarifying these competencies, empowering managers to combine effective leadership with strong management.
Overview
Overview
Set a new standard. Empower your team to lead and manage with confidence. While “leader” and “manager” are often used interchangeably, the two roles demand different approaches. Leaders inspire, innovate, and drive change. Managers focus on structure, execution, and results. Both are essential, but few professionals are confident in balancing leadership and management competencies effectively.
The Leader Manager Profile is a powerful training assessment that helps participants understand and develop the distinct leadership and management competencies. Use it to build a more agile, effective workforce that is equipped to meet today’s complex business demands.
How It Works
How It Works
The Leader Manager Profile utilizes an assessment in digital or print format. The assessment presents 36 statements pertaining to either managing or leading. After scoring is complete, participants receive a profile plotting their leadership and management scores (as well as sub-scores for six individual competencies).
Feedback scores from associates provide a side-by-side comparison. Finally, an action planning activity, worksheet, and reflection questions provide a framework for improvement.

Uses and Applications
Uses and Applications
The Leader Manager Profile provides useful feedback to participants about their leadership and management skills. It was designed to help participants learn about their leadership and management strengths and identify opportunities for improvement. This assessment is highly effective when used as a stand-alone instrument. However, it can serve as a component of a larger management or leadership training program.
