Individual Leadership Assessment
You know what to do. Find out what you do when the pressure is on.
An EBW assessment and one-to-one debrief that shows how you actually behave under stress, and the patterns a 360 will never surface. For individual leaders, with options for your whole team.
Partnered with EBW Global · 20 years of emotional behaviour research · Benchmarked against 5,000+ leaders worldwide · Delivered by an EBW Certified Facilitator
You've done the development. So why does pressure still pull you back?
The programs landed. The frameworks made sense.
And yet, when the stakes rise, you reach for the same old moves.
That isn't a capability gap. It's an identity gap. Under pressure, leaders don't reach for what they learned. They reach for who they believe they need to be to survive the room.
This assessment measures that. Precisely.

What it measures
Not personality. Emotional behaviour at work: the patterns that drive or derail leadership impact.
- Decisiveness
- Motivation
- Influence
- Adaptability
- Empathy
- Conscientiousness
- Stress Resilience
Plus how each one shifts under pressure, and an Impression Management measure that shows when a leader is polishing their answers, even for themselves.
What it reveals that nobody is saying out loud
The drive and discipline everyone praises, one hard quarter away from burnout.
The confidence that carries the room, and has quietly stopped hearing dissent.
The steadiness that keeps things on track, and quietly blocks the change you need.
These patterns don't show up in a 360. They show up in your decisions, your meetings and your results.
Why not just run a 360?

Why Dr Clare Allen
I spent 30 years as a CEO before I ever coached a leader. I know what the pressure does, because I've carried it.
My own EBW result, years ago, changed how I ran my businesses. That's why I use it, and why I don't stop at the report.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the EBW assessment?
- The EBW Business EQ assessment is a validated psychometric tool from EBW Global that measures emotional behaviour at work across seven scales: Decisiveness, Motivation, Influence, Adaptability, Empathy, Conscientiousness and Stress Resilience.
- Is it a personality test?
- No. Personality tests describe who you are. The EBW measures how you behave at work, including under pressure, and benchmarks you against more than 5,000 leaders.
- How is it different from a 360?
- A 360 collects colleague opinion. The EBW is a validated, benchmarked assessment of how a leader actually behaves, and it takes 20 minutes instead of six-plus surveys.
- Can organisations use it for recruitment and succession?
- Yes. The EBW includes an Impression Management measure and gives behavioural evidence for selection and succession decisions, not just reputation.
- How long does it take?
- Twenty minutes online, followed by a confidential one-to-one debrief with Dr Clare Allen.
