The results of the DNI ™, along with the Interpretation and Feedback Session, provide participants with a sound basis for setting development goals and tracking their development over a period of time.
The DNI™ was designed with one primary objective in mind: to help leaders lead more effectively. Other objectives that support this primary objective are:
To help leaders identify their strengths and most pressing development needs
To guide leaders in planning for their own leadership development and in moving from understanding to action
To provide information that will allow leaders to make intelligent choices among alternative leadership practices
To call attention to critical relationship between a company’s structure, culture, and typical leadership practices and the success and failure of a given leadership style
To provide a framework within which companies can (1) make orderly transitions from traditional bureaucracies to flexible, rapid response organizations with team leadership or (2) make an informed decision not to make that transition.
To help leaders lead in ways that get results, that are personally satisfying and morally sound, and that empower rather than overpower subordinates
The DNI™ serves three purposes:
To help you better understand your own managerial practices. This understanding will provide a basis for increasing your effectiveness as a leader and for planning your own career more realistically.
To help you understand how other persons in the organization view your leadership practices – that is, to help you understand whether you see yourself as others see you.
To serve as a basis for setting personal development goals and for tracking your development over a period of time.
