Step 1 of 5

Where do you
lead from today?

Rate yourself honestly on each behaviour. There are no right answers — only honest ones. Score 1 (rarely) to 5 (consistently).

01
Vision & Direction
Clarity on where you're going and your ability to bring others with you
I can clearly articulate where my business is headed in the next 12 months and why it matters.
RarelyConsistently

My team understands how their daily work connects to the bigger picture.
RarelyConsistently

When things get hard or change fast, I stay grounded and keep the team focused on what matters most.
RarelyConsistently
Reflect
02
People & Culture
How you grow, trust, and retain the people around you
I give specific, timely feedback — not just when things go wrong.
RarelyConsistently

I delegate based on strengths and growth, not just urgency or availability.
RarelyConsistently

My team would say they feel trusted, supported, and that I have their back.
RarelyConsistently
Reflect
03
Communication
Whether people feel informed, heard, and respected
I communicate expectations clearly — before a situation becomes a problem.
RarelyConsistently

When I have a difficult message to deliver, I say it directly and with care — not around it.
RarelyConsistently

After a feedback conversation, I follow up to acknowledge progress or address if nothing has changed.
RarelyConsistently

04
Decision Making & Accountability
Timely, consistent decisions and following through on what you commit to
I make decisions with appropriate speed — not too slow from fear, not too fast without thought.
RarelyConsistently

When I commit to something with my team, I do it — or I communicate early when I can't.
RarelyConsistently

I hold myself to the same standards I hold my team to.
RarelyConsistently
Reflect
05
Psychological Safety & Trust
Whether people feel safe to speak up, make mistakes, and be honest with you
My team feels comfortable bringing me problems and honest feedback — not just good news.
RarelyConsistently

When someone makes a mistake, my first response is curiosity and learning — not blame.
RarelyConsistently

I model the vulnerability I expect from others — I admit when I'm wrong, unsure, or need help.
RarelyConsistently

Step 2 of 5

What feedback
is sitting unspoken?

Think of one situation on your team right now that needs a conversation. Work through it using the four-stage framework. Be specific — vague answers produce vague results.

Progress
Step 3 of 5

What do you
actually lead by?

Select up to 5 values that feel most true to how you want to lead. Then check which ones your feedback situation above may be in conflict with.

Choose 3–5 values that feel most anchored in who you are as a leader:

Step 4 of 5

What will you
actually do?

A value without a behaviour is just a word on a wall. Define the one specific, observable behaviour you will commit to — and name when and with whom.

My Leadership Commitment
Be precise. This isn't "communicate better" — it's a specific action, a specific person, a specific date.
The one behaviour I commit to
The value it demonstrates
How I'll know I've followed through
What I will do if it's avoided again
Accountability Partner
Name one person — a peer, advisor, coach, or team member — who will know about this commitment. Naming it out loud to someone doubles your follow-through rate.
