EXECUTIVE IDENTITY PROFILE™

ASSESSMENT OVERVIEW

Purpose: This assessment reveals your core leadership personality—the stable psychological patterns that shape how you think, communicate, and lead. Understanding your identity foundation allows you to leverage natural strengths while managing potential blind spots that emerge under pressure.
