Leadership Circle Profile

 

WHY CONSIDER THE LEADERSHIP CIRCLE PROFILE (LCP) 360?

Many leaders sense that there is a gap between how they intend to lead and how they are actually experienced. The LCP 360 closes the gap with real data, showing a leader precisely where their leadership is effectively and where old patterns are quietly running the show. It gives a leader a specific place to start that is built from their own results based on their own evaluation and the feedback of their chosen evaluators.

 

WHAT IS THE LCP 360?

The Leadership Circle Profile (LCP) is an in-depth 360-degree leadership assessment that measures two primary leadership domains: Creative Competencies and Reactive Tendencies. By integrating this information it surfaces key opportunities for leadership development.

Creative Competencies measure how well a leader achieves results, brings out the best in others, leads with vision, acts with integrity and courage, and improves organizational systems. 

Reactive Tendencies are leadership styles that emphasize caution and approval over creating results, self-protection over collaboration, and control over alignment. 

The LCP supports a leader to see the internal assumptions and beliefs that are driving their behaviours and how that translates into an effective or ineffective style of leadership. As leaders gain these insights, they have more access to new choices and new possibilities.

Behind the LCP 360 sits a strong database. Each leaders results are compared against a global norm group - leaders across countries, industries, sectors, and leadership levels statistically matched to reflect the real distribution of leadership globally. That same research has validated a clear pattern: leaders who lead more from 'creative competencies' (relating, authenticity, system thinking, among others) and less from 'reactive tendencies' (controlling, complying, protecting, among others) are shown, consistently, to be more effective. 

 

FOR INDIVIDUAL LEADERS

Seeing your own reactive patterns named clearly, often for the first time, can be humbling and clarifying in equal measure. The profile doesn't just tell you what you do. It shows how those patterns connect to deeply held assumptions about what it takes to be successful, safe, or enough. That connection is where lasting change becomes possible, because you're no longer just managing behaviour, you're addressing what's driving it.

From there, we work together to build your capacity for the creative competencies the profile points toward: relating more openly, leading with greater authenticity, thinking systemically, and having courageous conversations even when it's uncomfortable. This isn't about becoming someone else. It's about becoming more fully who you already are, with less of the old patterns taking up energy and sitting in the way.

 

FOR TEAMS

The same continuum applies collectively. A team's combined leadership culture, whether it leans reactive or creative, shapes everything from how decisions get made to how safe people feel to raise a different view. Often, patterns that look like individual friction are actually a shared culture playing out across multiple people at once.

Working with a team through this lens builds a common language for what's happening beneath the surface, and a shared commitment to shifting it. Teams come away with more trust, more capacity to work through tensions productively, and a leadership culture that reflects intention rather than accumulated habits.

 

HOW WE WORK TOGETHER

I am a certified LCP 360 practitioner. The LCP 360 assessment, the debrief, and the coaching that follows are woven together as one continuous arc, not separate transactional steps. If you're considering this for yourself or your team and would like to know more about how it works - the process, the timelines, and the costs - please reach out and I can walk you through it.
