Description

The Leadership Challenge originated from a Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner research project. Jim and Barry wanted to know what people did when they were at their "personal best" in leading others. Their then-radical assumption was that, by asking ordinary people to describe extraordinary circumstances, they'd find patterns of success. Their survey of "personal best" leadership experiences consisted of open-ended questions requiring a few hours of reflection and expression. Jim and Barry initially collected more than 1,300 long and short survey forms and conducted in-depth interviews. Since then, they've collected more than 70,000 cases. TM -- the common practices associated with personal bests. These Five Practices form the basis of The Leadership Challenge Workshop offered by Leadership i2i. The experience begins with feedback from the Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI), which has been called the "most reliable and valid instrument for leadership development" by the Center for Creative Leadership. The LPI is an empirical assessment too, which has been used with more than 250,000 leaders and over a million of their constituents. More than 120 scientific studies have consistently confirmed the reliability and validity of the LPI and the Kouzes-Posner framework. The research is clear and the results are dramatic. Leaders who engage in The Five Practices get desirable results. They are more effective as leaders, more credible, more motivating, and they attain teamwork, esprit de corps, commitment, productivity, and lower turnover.
