2. Let's see how you rate yourself on the two most important styles (Visionary and Coaching) and which granular behaviours you could work on to improve those styles. Take the form you have completed from Chapter 7, Table 7.2 and follow these instructions (Wall & Knights, 2013): Complete the sub-totals and totals for each section as marked. Now complete the blank rows as follows:

X=Coaching style leadership A = Emotional Self-Awareness B = Empathy C = Developing Others Y = Visionary style leadership D = Self-Confidence E = Inspirational Leadership F= Change Catalyst G = Transparency You can now observe your own assessment of your competence in seven El Capabilities but also the two most impactful leadership styles, Visionary and Coaching. You can rate your competence in the Coaching style as follows: The maximum score is 60. If you have 48 or above, you are a natural at the coaching style but may still need to learn specific techniques. If you have 36-48, you are good but may need some further development. If you score 24-36, some improvement is probably needed. If you scored less than 24, a significant improvement is needed.

You can rate your competence in the Visionary style as follows: The maximum score is 80. If you have 64 or above, you are a natural at the Visionary style but may still need to learn specific techniques. If you have 48-64, you are good but may need some further development. If you score 32-48, some improvement is probably needed. If you scored less than 32, a significant improvement is needed. Note: Most leaders in our experience will have a better rating (e.g. "natural", "good", "some improvement" or "significant improvement") in the Visionary style than in the Coaching style. Finally, take a look at the granular behaviours where you scored lowest compared to your other scores. What would it take for you to improve these scores?
