Power Index®

The Impact You Want
to Make?

The Diamond Power Index® (DPI) leadership assessment measures leadership efficacy using the framework of Power Intelligence®.

It is the only leadership assessment that looks specifically at the effective use of power—personal power and positional power—shining a light on the critical link between use of power and its impact on organizational outcomes and culture.

The DPI measures two facets of power—the leader’s assessment of their personal power and others’ assessment of their use of power along seven unique power competencies. The Power Profile® report integrates results into a comprehensive roadmap for development, with actionable insights and suggestions for improvement.

How does the Diamond Power Index® differ from other 360º leadership assessments?

Leadership is a journey through different stages of development. Each stage requires not only different skills, but increased self-understanding and insight necessary to transform to the next level.

As leaders rise in the ranks, it’s critical that they get feedback that helps them see their impact on the performance of others and on the culture at large. This is where the DPI sits.
