In the dynamic landscape of today's business world, effective leadership is the cornerstone of success. At Morgan Philips Talent Consulting, our Assessment and Succession services provide high quality data and insights to increase awareness, leverage strengths, identify development areas and grow potential at both the individual and organisational level.

With the advancement of technology, especially Artificial Intelligence, it’s never been more important to ensure you have quality leadership data powering critical talent decisions.

Our approach to leadership assessment goes beyond evaluating skills and competencies; it delves into the essence of an individual's leadership style, potential, and impact. By gaining clarity around leadership capability in your organisation, you empower your teams to make informed choices, drive performance, and align talent with your company's vision and strategy.

Leading with Purpose®
Executive Leadership Profiling

For current or prospective, Board members, SLT members and other Executive leaders.

Business success today requires a deeper, more evolved way of leading others.
To maximise impact and well-being, leaders need to focus on both the ‘Inner’ and ‘Outer’ dimensions of their lives. The ‘Inner’ focus helps them to harness powerful sources of energy and the ’Outer’ focus helps them to navigate their social world in an impactful way.
To be ‘the best of the best’ also requires an understanding of how to enact leadership through important habits which, when applied, establish the intellectual, emotional, social, spiritual, and executional bandwidth to access a human’s innate resourcefulness, as well as mobilise and orchestrate the energy of others in an empowering way.
We call this evidence-based approach Leading with Purpose®. At its core, it prioritises establishing a roadmap aligned to a meaningful purpose. This ‘inner compass’ helps to build important connections which, when established, function like a new operating system which has been scientifically proven to organise and integrate the human system to be more cohesive, coherent, and systemically sustained.

Leading with Purpose® is the starting point to enact leadership power which helps to:

Maximise personal resourcefulness and resilience
Inspire and empower the workforce to maximise engagement and impact

Identify and mobilise creativity in top teams to support the drive for innovation
Sharpen communication to land messages with resonance and impact

Mid to Senior Level leadership assessment

For mid to senior-level leaders, we focus on identifying the leadership skills and behaviours necessary to navigate the complexities of today's business environment. Our assessments provide a detailed examination of leadership competencies, interpersonal dynamics, and decision-making ability.

This provides a comprehensive understanding of your leaders’ capabilities and identifies the right person for the role and/or facilitates targeted leadership development interventions. Elements of our market-leading Leading with Purpose™ are also intertwined with our assessment approach for mid to senior leaders. This allows us to provide additional value by also identifying the high-potential leaders within your organisation.

Our assessment approach helps your mid-to-senior leaders to:

Move between the operational and strategic in charting the course for the business
Manage complexity and high levels of pressure with organisation, poise and resilience

Build strong and influential networks that ‘open doors’ with current and future stakeholders
Unlock performance in their direct reports and peers
