Winter 2008
ICCD Offers Community College Leadership 360° Assessment™
How do others see you as a leader? Are you progressing in your career? How balanced are your work and personal lives?
In your college, how effective is your leadership team? Are they achieving the goals set out for them?
The only 360º assessment tailored to community college leadership, ICCD’s Community College Leadership 360º Assessment offers three focused approaches to strengthen leadership skills:
- personal,
- for professional associations, and
- for organizations.
ICCD’s online Community College Leadership 360º Assessment incorporates the competencies for community college leaders developed by the American Association for Community Colleges.
Areas of assessment include:
- organizational integrity
- resource development
- community college advocacy
- communication
- collaboration
- project management
- professionalism, and
- ethics
To gauge your individual readiness to lead in your community college, the Personal Assessment will examine and reveal the relationships between your behaviors and how they are perceived by your peers, your supervisors, and those you supervise. You and 15 to 20 respondents of your choice will complete an online instrument that assesses key leadership competencies.
Once your profile is established, your Assessment Report and a Personal Development Model will help you to create individual action steps to build on your identified strengths and to develop new leadership competencies.
If you are a member of a professional association you can assess your readiness to lead within your chosen profession. Ten custom questions, designed by your specific association, will help you decide which programs best fit your needs. Once your profile is established, your Assessment Report and a Personal Development Model will help you to create individual action steps to build on your identified strengths and to develop new leadership competencies.
Do you want to build organizational capacity? The Organizational Assessment is helpful for:
- single institutions,
- districts,
- systems,
- professional associations, and
- organizations.
This option can assist you in identifying the areas of strength and challenge in your current staff. Implementing change or furthering initiatives is dependent on giving responsibility and accountability to the right people in your organization. Your Organizational Assessment and Report will help you to understand the abilities and growth trajectories of your team quickly and constructively. Then you can focus on organizational action steps to build on your team’s strengths and to develop its leadership capacity.
