Leadership Competency Assessment (Emotional Intelligence) Post-Program

Thanks for your participation in the Innovative Connections Leadership Competency (Emotional Intelligence) Assessment. This process will help you identify your current skill sets in five (5) critical areas of leadership/emotional intelligence.

The survey should only take 5-10 minutes. Take your time but do not overthink your response. Be as honest with yourself as possible and consider your answers primarily through the lens of how you behave at work.

Your final scores for each of the five (5) domains will be emailed to you. Please be sure to check the accuracy of your e-mail address so your results are delivered correctly. If you do not get your results via email, please contact admin@innovativeconnectionsinc.com.

Please only take the survey once. You will complete a post assessment after the program is complete. If you have any questions about the survey, please email any of your Innovative Connections contacts.

Your personal information will not be shared with anyone outside of Innovative Connections.  Group trends and themes may be shared with your organization's leadership but your individual scores will never be shared without notifying you first.  We may use demographics data such as job role and industry to continuously improve our products and services.  Aggregated response data may be used to conduct research, compile case studies, and update our scoring thresholds.  Innovative Connections will never share or sell your personal information to any third parties.
