AL360 vs Individual Achieving Leader Assessments
Breadth or depth. The Achieving Leader 360 gives you the whole leadership picture in one multi-rater instrument. The individual Achieving Leader assessments each go deep on a single domain. Which you want depends on whether you are doing a comprehensive review or working a specific theme.

|---|---|---|
| Scope | All 6 leadership domains, 19 factors | One focused domain |

| When to use | 360 programs, comprehensive review | Targeted coaching on a specific theme |
| Price | $95/token | $19.95 self / $69.95 multi-rater |
What the AL360 covers
The Achieving Leader 360 measures six leadership domains and 19 factors, grounded in Self-Determination Theory, Psychological Safety, and Adaptive Leadership, with self and observer ratings and no practical limit on the number of observers. It is the right tool for 360 programs and a complete leadership review.
What the individual assessments add
Each individual Achieving Leader assessment — Leadership Philosophy, Communication Insight, Employee Involvement, Motivation & Engagement, Empowerment & Delegation, and Adaptive Leadership — is a focused deep dive into one domain. They work as standalone tools or as a targeted follow-up after a 360, and offer a self version or a multi-rater option with up to five observers.
Which should you choose?
- Choose the AL360 for a comprehensive, multi-rater read on a leader across every domain.
- Choose an individual assessment to go deep on one theme — for example, coaching a leader specifically on delegation or motivation.
- Sequence them by running the AL360 first, then using an individual deep dive on whichever domain the 360 flags.
