Leadership 360 for Leaders in Health and Medicine

This leadership 360 assessment is specifically designed for healthcare environments where clinical excellence meets leadership responsibility. Unlike generic corporate tools, our survey understands the unique challenges you face—from managing multidisciplinary teams under pressure to balancing patient safety with operational demands.

The assessment takes approximately 15-20 minutes to complete and covers nine core competencies across five key areas: Personal Qualities & Professionalism, Clinical Credibility & System Literacy, Working with Others & Communication, Managing & Improving Services, and Setting Direction & Leading Change.

Your feedback will generate both detailed data reports and AI-enhanced insights that translate directly into actionable development priorities—because healthcare leaders need clear direction, not just more information to interpret.

Before You Start:

  • Review the list of colleagues you'd like feedback from across different roles: peers, direct reports, managers, and multidisciplinary team members
  • Aim for 8-12 respondents to get a comprehensive view of your leadership across different contexts
  • Include people who see your leadership in various situations—clinical areas, meetings, change initiatives, day-to-day operations

Selecting Your Respondents:

  • Peers: Fellow consultants, senior nurses, department heads, or clinical leads at your level
  • Direct Reports: Junior doctors, nurses, allied health professionals, or admin staff you directly supervise
  • Managers: Service directors, clinical directors, or senior leaders you report to
  • Multidisciplinary Colleagues: Staff from other professions you work with regularly (pharmacy, therapy services, social work, etc.)

What Happens Next:

  1. Your selected respondents receive an invitation with clear instructions
  2. All responses are completely anonymous and confidential
  3. You'll receive your comprehensive report once all feedback is collected.
