Identifying Leadership Derailers in 360 Degree Feedback

A DecisionWise Leadership Intelligence® Assessment also measure leadership derailers using a separate section from our normal leadership competencies. A leadership derailer is a behavior that gets in the way of a leader’s effectiveness, and is often an over-used strength. You can recognize a derailer using these four criteria:

• A derailer has the potential to limit our progress
• Sometimes, a derailer can be linked to a talent taken to an extreme
• Multiple strengths cannot compensate for a derailer
• Others tend to focus on and emphasize our weaknesses

Enhance your 360-degree feedback insights with DecisionWise. Don’t overlook vital aspects without a derailers section, crucial for a comprehensive leadership evaluation. Our derailers measure emotional intelligence and interpersonal skills, revealing the ‘how’ behind results. Ensure effective leadership, evaluating not just KPIs, but also team retention.
