  • What is the ELI / Energy Leadership® Index assessment?
    The Energy Leadership® Index assessment - or ELI - is an attitudinal assessment created by iPEC, a long-standing coach training school. The Energy Leadership® Index Assessment has been named as 1 of 11 Assessments Every Executive Should Take by Forbes Coaches Council: ​ “The Energy Leadership® Index Assessment provides a unique lens on self-awareness and emotional intelligence, two key ingredients for any leader. Situational awareness of yourself and others is critical for a leader to respond appropriately to the people in their charge. Understanding where you are at any moment and how you respond to stress can make all the difference." The ELI is a powerful tool that helps you understand how you show up in different situations - especially when things get challenging. Unlike personality tests that put you in a box, this assessment shows you how you respond to situations and what's getting in your way. It measures your energy levels and response patterns, turning something hard to grasp (like your attitude and approach to life) into something you can see and work with.
