The company is currently identifying 10 - 15 young managers that are seen to have high potential. Jack's name has been mentioned on a few occasions by come of the other senior managers as someone with a lot of potential.
By taking the ECR™ self-assessment both Jack and his manager will gain a better insight into his EQ strengths. Once he completes the assessment, Jack will receive an 18 page report and one-to-one feedback from his coach. His manager will then be able to assess his suitability for promotion and to outline the various skills and competencies which he will need to develop in order to make his case more favourable.
Now let's have a look at his profile summary on the ECR™.
Evaluating Jack's ECR™ Report
After examining Jack's individual report, we can gain some insight into his potential as a leader.
What does Jack's profile suggest about his current levels of Emotional Intelligence?
Overall, we can see from the report that his level of EQ is very positive and is in the effective range, and typical of the general population. However, what the report also tells us, is that he has scope to improve his three lowest competencies - relationship skills, adaptability and particularly his empathy.
What strengths does Jack bring to his current role in the organization?
Jack brings great strengths to his current role particularly in the areas of self-confidence and optimism. He has good levels of self-regard and can sustain high levels of motivation. He appears to work well under pressure and maintains a positive outlook in the face of setbacks.
What are the challenges Jack might encounter if he was placed in charge of a large team?
While Jack is clearly competent in his job, his interpersonal skills are clearly in need of development if he is to get the best out of his team and progress to a more senior position within the organization. If he does not address these areas, he could be in danger of de-motivating his team and not achieving his potential.
What are the specific competencies and skills that Jack needs to develop if he is to step up to leadership positions?
Jack needs to develop his interpersonal skills, particularly empathy, and to adopt a more open and adaptable approach. He needs to take greater interest in his team and spend more one-to-one time with them. He would be advised to ask for other people's opinions more often and genuinely listen to their point of view before rushing in with his own viewpoints.
