How Inclusive is Your Leadership?

Every leader has the potential to build an inclusive culture that empowers all members of their organisation to optimise innovation, performance, and decision-making.

The challenge is that most leaders think they are far more inclusive and less biased than they are, with limited awareness of their inclusive leadership strengths or capability gaps.

Symmetra’s ground-breaking Inclusive Leadership Index (ILI) Assessment provides granular insight into a leader’s inclusion strengths and developmental areas positioning them to become a future-fit leader in the 21st Century – where inclusive leadership has become integral to effective leadership.

Inclusion Leadership Index (ILI) Assessment Key Features

Advice and direction are needed to create strategies that provide lasting competitive advantage and a greater sense of belonging among employees.

Based upon Symmetra’s extensively researched Inclusion Competency Model, the ILI Assessment has been tailored to meet the demands on leaders of diverse teams working in complex environments.

The ILI Assessment has been subject to rigorous validity testing to ensure results are accurate and meaningful.

Provides a clear and comprehensive view of the experience of peers, direct reports and managers who work with a leader regarding their personal inclusion strengths, challenges, and blind spots.

Valid and reliable feedback provide the foundation for building individualized developmental plans for leaders and collectively for leadership teams.

Only taking 15 – 20 minutes to complete a review, the ILI Assessment quickly puts individuals on the right track to becoming inclusive leaders.

Inclusion Leadership Index (ILI) Assessment Benefits

Symmetra’s ILI Assessment provides immediate and sustainable benefits for leaders and their organisations, including:

Exceptional Clarity

The ILI measures the inclusiveness displayed by a leader and provides a granular insight into what inclusive behaviour looks like, and what they need to address to optimise their leadership capability

Focused Intervention

Assessment results identify practices that are hurting your organisation’s inclusiveness and allow for targeted solutions to develop the right capabilities and habits in leaders to change people’s experience.

Improved Relationships

The ILI Assessment allows leaders to develop greater self awareness, understand the impact they have on others and be more responsive to their needs.

Benchmark performance and progress

The ILI assessment can provide reliable data on inclusion performance for balanced scorecards of leaders where DEI is a KPI and/or is linked to remuneration, and can benchmark progress year on year.
 

How It Works?

The Inclusion Leadership Index is a sophisticated 360 assessment that measures how inclusive the behaviour of a leader is on 9 competencies of inclusion.

The assessment will provide leaders insight into their inclusion strengths and developmental areas which they can compare to global benchmarks. It will also provide collective results of a leadership team which can be used to inform what steps need to be taken to close their inclusion performance gaps.

Due to its wide-reaching application and granular insights, C-suite executives, heads of departments, senior managers, directors, and virtually any other professional in a leadership role, regardless of their sector or industry, can benefit from completing the ILI Assessment.

The first step towards an inclusive workplace is just a click away!
