Leadership Readiness Assessment: How Adaptable Is Your Team?

The leadership adaptability scorecard gives executive teams a practical way to identify strengths, expose gaps, and focus improvement where adaptability matters most.

Learning and Adjustment

Does the team change course when evidence shows the current approach is not working?

Communication and Alignment

Do leaders explain changing priorities and keep departments operating as one organization?

Culture and Resilience

Common Questions

Leadership Adaptability Scorecard FAQs

Who should complete the Leadership Adaptability Scorecard?
The scorecard is designed for CEOs, executives, senior managers, HR leaders, department heads, and leadership teams navigating growth, disruption, culture change, uncertainty, or shifting priorities.
Should leaders score themselves or the organization?
Both approaches can be useful. The strongest discussion often comes from having several leaders complete the scorecard independently and then comparing their ratings across the five adaptability categories.
What does the score measure?
The scorecard measures five leadership areas: clarity under uncertainty, decision speed and ownership, learning and adjustment, communication and alignment, and culture and resilience.
What should we do with our results?
Start with the lowest scoring category. Choose one visible leadership behavior to improve over the next 30 days, define what better execution should look like, and reassess the team in 60 to 90 days.
Can the scorecard be used before a leadership retreat or workshop?
Yes. It can be used as a pre retreat diagnostic, leadership development exercise, workshop discussion tool, or change readiness assessment to identify where the team needs the most attention.
Can Dr. Rick Goodman help our team improve its adaptability?
Yes. Dr. Rick Goodman works with organizations through keynotes, leadership training, executive coaching, consulting, and leadership retreats designed to strengthen adaptability, accountability, communication, and performance.
