Here is a selection of comments from senior managers who have used the audits in workshops to improve their organisations.
"The organisational leadership model suits us [in the public sector] because our people see it as helping us deliver better public services. By comparison, a strongly individualistic focus on leadership would be seen as threatening."
"The Organisational Leadership Audit is a very practical tool because to breaks down some large and difficult concepts (like the leadership culture) into bite-size questions which you can easily get your head around. You just do one, then move onto the next, and end up having eaten the whole elephant."
"The audit appealed to our Board because it's a business improvement tool, not a personal development tool."
"Shifting my mindset towards treating leadership as a prime resource or asset of the organisation, with all the implied management implications for getting the most out of it for our business, opened up a whole new world for me."
"It enhanced my view that the department was not preparing well for new challenges."
"Not only is it relevant, it is vital for any organisation to approach leadership in this way."
"I think it has crystallised what I've always intuitively known into a usual, practical tool."
"Essentially common sense ideas, but it provides a logical structure."
"Simple but effective way of looking at leadership from a business perspective."
"Reconsider the impact of HR processes on aiding leadership."
"Enormous value on so many levels; e.g. challenging without fear, rewarding performance, and dealing with incompetence."
"A useful tool for thinking both about leadership and where the business is going."
"Something for me as a management tool irrespective of what happens across the Region."
"A different concept of leadership."
"A useful tool for thinking both about leadership and where the business is going."
