Leadership Development Profile

Kegan's Taxonomy through Otto Laske's Developmental-Behavioral Assessment

Summary of Findings

Mike’s developmental journey toward greater self-awareness increasingly exerts its influence on his behavioral profile. His potential for moving out of strict managerial “self-authoring” toward a more leadership-focused self-awareness benefits the way in which he modulates subjective need when acting in an organizational environment. From a personal perspective, his capability of greater self-awareness makes him more humble and open to, as well as considerate of, others. Cognitively, he may be able to strengthen his ability to understand and vigorously support the transformation of others and of work environments. Mike’s need-based behavioral tendencies are moving from a strictly self-sufficient to a more cooperative mode, both in terms of self-perception and interpersonal functioning. This benefits his use of available energy and stabilizes him temperamentally. Indirectly, it also boosts his considerable competences and allows him to create a more effective climate for action both for himself and others.
