Transformative Leadership Lab
Manager MRI
Self-Diagnostic for Senior Leaders

What your managers' teams reveal about their leadership.

Most senior leaders can sense when a manager's team is struggling. They just don't have a structured way to read the signals. This short diagnostic gives you one, grounded in the three elements of the Transformative Leadership Mindset.

Transformative Leadership Mindset
Sage Mind

Calm, curious, empathetic

Leaders who stay grounded under pressure create the psychological safety that lets teams think clearly and recover fast.

Relating

Trust and engagement

Asking, listening, including, coaching, and encouraging. The skills that build the trust required for honest work.

Requiring

Expectations and accountability

Clear standards, follow-up, and the willingness to confront problems. Where performance and growth actually come from.

How this works

  1. Add the managers you want to assess. Each one gets their own 20-question diagnostic.
  2. Rate what you observe in each manager's team. Not their personality. Not their intentions. The team's actual behavior in meetings, deliverables, and cross-functional work.
  3. See where each manager's leadership is landing. Scores across Sage Mind, Relating, and Requiring. The biggest gaps surface first.
  4. Get targeted guidance. For each gap, you'll see what the manager should work on and what you can do as their leader to support the shift.

This isn't a 360. It's a senior-leader's reading of the team-level outcomes each manager is producing. The signals are already there. Most leaders just don't have a frame for reading them.

Who are you assessing?

Add the managers you want to evaluate. You can add as many as you like and complete the assessments in any order.
