363° of leadership effectiveness
To be truly effective, the leader of a team must understand how their actions impact the people around them. To bring out the best in others, you must first bring out the best in yourself.
Leading experts stress that strong leaders must take time to work on self-awareness, self-management, empathy, and relationship management, collectively known as emotional intelligence (EQ).

For leaders to get a truly accurate picture of their effectiveness, they need clear and balanced feedback from their manager, peers, direct reports, and others in and outside of the organization.
LEADERSHIP DNA is the industry’s most effective feedback tool, building upon strengths and uncovering opportunities. The results we provide our clients are completely individualized and presented constructively, and provide leaders the information needed to become more effective in their roles.

What It Is
The LEADERSHIP DNA experience begins with a 360-degree research-based feedback instrument based on the DiSC 363 for Leaders model. This simple to use program allows you to evaluate your performance and incorporates feedback from direct reports, peers, and bosses. You’ll gain insights into your behavior and discover how you’re perceived in your organization. A gap analysis will identify the elements of focus required to enhance your EQ.
How We Do It
Based on your DiSC ® style, you will be guided to recognize core tendencies that shape your approach to leadership. With your VSG-AT coach, you will identify which of the Eight Approaches to Effective Leadership – and the three behavioral practices underlying each approach – are your strengths, and which would benefit from further development. LEADERSHIP DNA is 360 + 3: you will learn a minimum of three personalized strategies for becoming a more effective leader that can be put into practice immediately.
The Leadership DNA curriculum
LEADERSHIP DNA begins by measuring the right skills, leadership competencies that really make a difference. It is a confidential process, and the feedback instrument takes just 15-20 minutes to complete. A VSG-AT coach then works with you to develop a personal development plan.
Upon completion, Leaders will receive:
- A two-part, 22+-page 360° profile report that combines the research-validated, online Everything DiSC® information and Leadership Behaviors assessments
- Context-specific feedback using intuitive easy-to-read visuals
- Clear definitions of the Eight Approaches and associated behavioral Practices
- Graphic illustrations that break down feedback by type of rater (e.g., managers, peers, direct reports) and detailed rater comments on all 24 Practices
- Three personalized strategies that identify areas where leaders have the greatest opportunities for improvement based on their unique DiSC style and specific feedback provided by raters
