The CheckPoint 360°
Competency Feedback
System
A tool for organizational and
professional development
In a recent survey which
researched a variety of current
leadership and management
issues . . . . .
One of the most important
things discovered from the
survey was:
“People do not quit
companies, they quit
management.”
The research revealed a significant
number of companies expressed a
major concern and need for:
 Identifying and developing
effective managers
 Verifying the specific
management skill sets that
are required to perform up
to their full potential
Achieving these two goals should
be important to all companies
today.
Through our continuing
program of research, we have
found that successful leaders &
managers are highly competent
in these eight critical areas:
1. Communication
2. Leadership
3. Adaptability
4. Relationships
5. Task Management
6. Production
7. Development of Others

How can you be sure…
Which of your managers already
display these critical leadership
and management skills and
competencies?
How effective are the leadership
skills of your managers as
perceived by the people with
whom they interact on a daily
basis?
A few important questions…
1.
Has the departure of a manager ever been a
cause for celebration?
2.
Can you think of a time when there was a
dramatic change in job performance, either
positively or negatively, when an employee
was transferred to a different manager?
3.
Some managers seem to experience more
“people problems” than others; why do you
think that happens?
4.
Why do some managers get more
productivity from their people than others?
5.
What training do you provide to improve
your managers’ performance?
6.
When managers have failed to perform up to
your expectations, what have you done to
improve their effectiveness?
7.
What is your process for appraising the
performance of your managers?
Many companies are successfully using
our Checkpoint 360° Feedback system to
improve leadership and management
performance.
Here is why:
 It alerts managers to specific actions they can
take to improve their performance
 It uncovers specific training needs
 It brings each manager’s goals in alignment
with the company’s goals
 Managers identify the things they should
keep doing, because they are productive
 Managers identify things they should stop
doing, because they are counter-productive
 Managers identify things they want to start
doing to become even more effective
 CheckPoint helps sharpen managerial skills
 It increases the level of communication
between people and departments where
cooperation is essential to the company’s
success
CheckPoint measures 8
universal management
competencies in 18 skill
groups
