C
TYPE
STATEMENT
MY SCORE (1–5)
Tool 1: Self-Assessment for an Introduction to 7C Leadership What is this tool for? To reveal the gap between your leadership intentions and your actual impact on the team.
I express my opinions and actively seek everyone’s input, remaining open to changing my mind I make timely decisions and allow others to decide within their area of responsibility I delegate visible, meaningful work and support different approaches
What I do (Behaviours)
CONFIDENCE
Trusting your own judgement while building the confidence of others
The team feels informed and confident in my direction
How does it work? For each C, you assess six statements:
What others experience (Outcomes)
The team trusts my decisions and feels that I trust theirs Everyone feels empowered to make decisions within their domain I seek perspectives from a wide range of backgrounds before making decisions I create moments where quieter voices can be heard I consider the impact of decisions on all stakeholders Underrepresented groups genuinely feel included Each person feels that I understand their unique needs and challenges All stakeholders feel that their concerns are taken seriously I involve people from diverse backgrounds in problem-solving I build on everyone’s ideas, regardless of seniority I distribute credit fairly based on actual contributions Everyone feels that their contributions are genuinely valued and integrated There is a shared sense of ownership over outcomes People feel safe contributing their ideas
• 3 focused on what you do (your behaviours) • 3 focused on what others experience (the perceived impact) Why is this important? You may believe you are doing the right things (high behaviour score) without the team actually experiencing the intended impact (low outcome score). This gap represents a blind spot to work on.
