One of the best ways to grow in your leadership development is to receive personalized attention with one-on-one coaching. For those who participate in The Leadership Challenge® workshop, coaching is a great way to complement your experience and help ensure that you sustain your development long after the workshop has concluded. With workplace training in general, there are many times in which attendees will come away from a workshop with the full intention of translating their learning into action, but then quickly lose focus once they settle back into their usual routines. Our coaching helps remedy this issue by providing you with timely support that not only reinforces your learning, but provides you with an on-going path to meaningful, positive change.
On the other hand, individual coaching is also a powerful, stand-alone option for those who may not be able to take part in one of our workshops and have no prior experience with The Leadership Challenge® or any of its content. Our coaching is designed to be friendly to newcomers and equips you with all you need to be a higher-performing leader, no matter what industry you are in, or what level of leadership you are at.
Some of the benefits of our one-on-one coaching include:
Professional leadership development that is tailored to you and your current situation
Confidential, candid support from an external, third-party source without any type of bias
Game-changing feedback that can maximize your individual impact and advance your career
Discovery of any barrier(s) that may be impeding your performance and potential to succeed
Personalized support from an encouraging partner who will act as a sounding board regarding any issues or setbacks you may encounter on your leadership journey
A proven framework that will not only benefit you in your professional life, but can also be used to assist you in applications outside of the workplace
Increased self-awareness and confidence to lead more effectively where you are at
Enhanced ability to thrive in various leadership roles within an organization
We help leaders increase their effectiveness by using a psychometric assessment that is widely considered the gold standard of leadership development, the Leadership Practices Inventory® (LPI®). Developed by James Kouzes and Barry Posner, bestselling co-authors of The Leadership Challenge, the LPI® is a 360-degree diagnostic tool that has been used by over five million people worldwide.
Thoroughly researched and rigorously tested for over three decades, the LPI® has been consistently found to be both a valid and reliable means of developing more effective leaders (click here for an in-depth research report). As a data-driven tool that has been proven to work with both emerging and experienced leaders of all kinds across the world, you can be confident and trust that the LPI® will help you become a better leader too. To learn more about the LPI® and understand the value (and tremendous insight) it provides as a 360-degree feedback measure, please click here.
Some benefits of the LPI® include:
Can be conveniently taken online, 24/7/365
Can be completed on any computer or smart device
Contains open-ended questions that can be adapted to fit the needs of a given individual and/or organization
Provides a quantifiable measure of leadership effectiveness that acts as a catalyst for change
Only takes 15-25 minutes to complete
Helps leaders maximize their leadership potential
Based on The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership® model, the LPI® is a questionnaire that measures 30 key behaviors which research has found to be critical to success. The LPI® excels as an instrument of self-awareness since it collects feedback from not only the leader (via the LPI Self-Assessment), but also from others who are familiar with the leader, such as their bosses, co-workers, and direct reports (via LPI Observer Assessments). To extract feedback that is both honest and useful, the assessment ratings that are completed by an individuals’ colleagues are collected anonymously, with complete confidentiality being our standard approach, whenever it is possible.
There are two different LPI® reports that are available for our one-on-one coaching: the individual report and the reassessment report. While the use of each report is dependent on the scope of a given leadership initiative, either one can provide tremendous insight and value for individuals. A sample of each report can be found below:
LPI® 360 Individual Report:
The individual report shows an individual’s leadership behavior as a snapshot in time, which provides an invaluable benchmark for future reports, and lays the foundation for measurable progress.

The reassessment report takes the data from an individual’s initial assessment and compares it to data from up to three other iterations of the assessment for the same individual. This provides the opportunity to view a change in an individual’s leadership behavior over time.
Click here for free exampleIn order to ensure that the LPI® remains focused on leadership development (and not used as a type of performance appraisal), an individual’s LPI® results are only distributed to them, that way there are no concerns about the results affecting anyone’s standing in the workplace. With measures like this in place, the LPI® encourages both the individual and their colleagues to provide the most accurate feedback on their assessments. Once an individual receives their results, they are equipped with invaluable feedback regarding how they see themselves as leaders, how others view them, and what actions they can start taking to improve their effectiveness as a leader. Personalized coaching helps individuals make the most of their LPI® experience by making sure they interpret their results correctly and have a clear path for future progress.
“The coaching experience from Leadership Interactive, LLC was truly amazing, and definitely like no other experience that I have ever engaged in. Over the past 25 years, I have attended leadership courses as well as certification programs which allowed me to learn a lot about myself, and how to be a better leader, but the information provided to me by Dr. Rob Acosta was most valuable. I feel like I am now able to take my individualized report, and work on specific areas that will allow growth and positive experiences as a leader. The coaching experience is truly unique, and far different from than any other program. The information that you are provided with is based on the feedback from colleagues and coworkers (including the staff that you supervise). Additionally, you are provided with reference material and evidence-based data to support the areas that you may want to improve in. I would highly recommend the experience to anyone who is in a leadership position, and is willing to take their role as a leader to another level.”
-Lisa Odom, CIS - Program Director, Crisis Intervention Services
“I am incredibly grateful to be going through the LPI coaching process with Leadership Interactive! The assessments highlight the importance of frequency when applying the behaviors that are necessary to being a more impactful leader. The coaching session with Dr. Rob Acosta was such an encouraging experience because he provided me with very specific action items and tools to improve my leadership effectiveness, based on the results from my assessments in relation to the 30 behaviors of exemplary leadership. Aside from being excited to apply what I have learned from my experience, I am so thankful to have access to a personal coach and proven resources to help guide me on how I can be a more effective leader for my team and organization.”
-Kelly Moody, Project Director of ACE – Cycle 9
