Mission-Driven Leaders 360

A comprehensive 360-degree assessment specifically designed for nonprofit leaders. The assessment covers ten key dimensions that are particularly relevant to nonprofit leadership, including mission-driven leadership, stakeholder engagement, and resource management.

How to succeed your 360 assessment:

  1. Find a trusted person to help you digest and apply the feedback: an executive coach, a mentor, a peer, or your director of human resources. A trusted person is useful for three reasons: to help you take the feedback the right way and not be too critical of yourself, and help prioritize what you should change, and serve as your accountability buddy for those changes.
  2. Send the survey to 5-10 subordinates, supervisors and peers.
  3. Review the feedback with your trusted person and decide what to improve.
  4. Thank all those who gave you valuable feedback!
  5. Repeat on a yearly basis to measure and validate your progress!

Share this with your coach or trusted person: How to give feedback to a leader who has completed a 360 assessment.
