(Certified Coach)

The Bates ExPI™ multi-rater assessment gives leaders an in-depth analysis of their ability to influence business outcomes. The assessment is a powerful foundational tool for coaching and development plans. Bates ExPI™ feedback helps leaders build the presence and influence necessary for mobilizing teams, driving strategy, and making an impact. Organizations use the tool to develop current and future leaders and guide strong succession plans.

The Bates ExPI™ focuses on the three dimensions of executive presence outlined by the Bates model – Character, Substance, and Style. Individual rating scales measure 15 distinct facets proven by our research to be directly related to a leader’s ability to influence. Perceptions of important stakeholders – peers, direct reports, and managers – are compared with the leader’s self-perceptions in order to identify strengths, needs, and gaps.

Once the results are tabulated, the leader receives an in-depth ExPI™ Feedback Report and User Guide. A Bates-certified coach provides an individualized insight session to discuss and interpret themes. Through this process, the leader develops a strong conceptual understanding of what Executive Presence is, learns how to leverage his or her individual strengths, and gains insight into how to improve in critical areas that drive business outcomes.
