LeaderNation allows you to create custom competency models and 360 feedback surveys in minutes.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) August 29, 2009 -- At LeaderNation, they feel that if it’s you job to help leaders develop and grow, it’s their mission to help you. As organizations grow leaner the importance of developing and retaining top talent becomes magnified. LeaderNation offers a cost-effective way to accomplish these important tasks. The key to all successful leadership development activities is self-awareness, and 360 feedback is the best tool to increase a leader’s self-awareness. LeaderNation employs a powerful, results-driven philosophy to deliver top notch 360 feedback instruments.

To ensure results that impact the bottom line, LeaderNation helps organizations design competency models which are guided by their unique mission, vision, and strategy. The LeaderNation system guides users through the critical process of thinking about how these key organizational aspects impact the design of high quality competency models.

LeaderNation supports leadership development efforts with research-based literature, practical training, and a knowledgeable support staff. Co-founder Joaquín Roca notes, “When we were creating the LeaderNation system we kept both administrators and end-users in mind. It was our goal to make this a pain-free process for all parties.” By providing coaches, consultants and HR professionals with training, support materials, and a dedicated support staff, LeaderNation helps its partners use rigorous data-collection techniques to learn more about successful leadership in their organizations. Mr. Roca continues, “I’m really excited about our growing library of behaviorally-based competencies.” LeaderNation’s competency library is just one of the many additional resources and tools they offer to help create tailored leadership competency models.

The LeaderNation system was designed to yield actionable feedback. Moving away from the traditional Likert-type scale, LeaderNation employs a continuous sliding scale to allow for more flexibility and precision in rating behaviors. This precision, coupled with LeaderNation’s philosophy that behaviorally-based questions result in feedback that is imminently actionable, helps leaders develop useful action plans. Further, the LeaderNation system complements the quantitative feedback collected using sliding scales with qualitative feedback that gives personalized comments directed at specific behaviors.
LeaderNation is also very reasonably priced (http://LeaderNation.com/pricing-process). Co-founder Yaron Prywes talks about this value, saying, “By providing a low-cost leadership development solution, we hope to democratize leadership development by making high-quality leadership development solutions available to small and mid-sized companies. We also hope to serve independent coaches and consultants with a tool they can customize with their own branding and their own thoughts about leadership development.”
