LSI Leadership Development
Build Better Leadership with the Life Styles Inventory™
Individual development starts with self-discovery. Human Synergistics diagnostic solutions help create awareness of current behaviours, acceptance of the impacts these have on personal effectiveness, and action steps for constructive change.
Since 1995, we have been utilizing the industry-leading diagnostic tools from Human Synergistic International to enable individuals to measure their values and thinking and behavioural styles - allow them to explore the links to their overall effectiveness, interpersonal relationships, personal satisfaction and health.
Our consultants are experts in helping your leaders identify development needs and strategies for improvement. We can support you to develop and deliver a complete leadership development program for you, your leadership team and / or for leaders from across your organization or community.
LSI - Life Style Inventory™ Leadership Effectiveness Assessment
Research and development by Robert A. Cooke, Ph.D. and J. Clayton Lafferty, Ph.D.
Before (and beyond) Emotional Intelligence: The Life Styles Inventory (LSI) has helped millions of people understand and change their thinking and behavioural styles of leadership to increase effectiveness. As one of the first self-development assessments to feature a circumplex and provide a 360-feedback component, the LSI has been referenced in numerous books, journals, and newspapers, including The Wall Street Journal.
“Frank Gallant’s facilitation and guidance using the LSI leadership assessment were highly effective and impactful. His ability to provide actionable insights, additional resource materials, and personalized recommendations made the experience deeply valuable. The blend of concrete action items, opportunities for reflection, and tools for continued self-development ensures that participants can achieve meaningful and lasting growth. Anyone seeking to enhance their leadership skills or engage in thoughtful, practical self-improvement would greatly benefit from his experience.”

The Benefits
Designed for CEO, directors, managers, leaders, students, and those in professional and technical roles, the LSI leadership development process empowers people to actualize their potential and contribute to the success of their organization. It’s particularly valuable for helping individuals:
-
discover new and/or different ways of thinking and behaving
-
increase effectiveness in their roles
-
reduce and cope better with stress and the effects of pressure and change
-
achieve self-set goals
-
solve problems and think more creatively
-
improve interpersonal skills and relationships
-
increase their overall satisfaction and well-being
How It Works
The LSI is comprised of two components:
-
LSI 1 (self-description assessment): Individuals describe their thinking styles, personal effectiveness, and satisfaction at work and home.
-
LSI 2 (360-feedback assessment): Up to 12 peers, managers, and direct reports provide the individuals with feedback on their behavior and effectiveness.
The results and recommendations are then presented to each individual in a confidential, comprehensive report. The customized report includes feedback on 12 important thinking and behavioral styles as well as confirmed and unrecognized strengths, blind spots, and stumbling blocks.
