The Self-Aware Leader is Insights’ solution for developing great leaders at all levels of an organization.
More than any other skill, leadership is about personal human strengths – empathy, conviction, charisma, reliability, and so much more.
That’s why the Self-Aware Leader helps people to look inwards, encouraging leaders to increase their level of self-awareness so that they see themselves more clearly.

This is a learning experience that makes time for intense self-reflection and creates a safe space for leaders to share their challenges and aspirations. Building on the knowledge from the Insights Discovery Personal Profile, leaders are challenged to reflect inwards on who they are, and consider how they can build their leadership capabilities in a way that’s authentic for them.
Leaders work with the Insights Discovery Transformational Leadership Profile, which gives insight into eight critical abilities within the leadership dimensions, as well as some really practical tips for enhancing their effectiveness in each area.
Leaders will be able to explore their own leadership style, and then – through a modular approach – turn their attention to those leadership dimensions they need to develop further.
Any leader, at any level of an organization, can leverage their gifts and strengths by increasing their self-awareness. The Self-Aware Leader experience gives all leaders the time and space to take a good look at how they show up as a leader, get up close with their vulnerabilities, and understand the potential in their own unique leadership style.
