Quickly identify growth potential, surface hidden risks, and direct your coaching investments where they matter most.
L&D and HR leaders are under increasing pressure to deliver strategic impact with limited resources. Burnout is rising, performance is uneven, and succession risks are harder to see — all while development budgets tighten.
The Coaching Diagnostic Tool™ helps you cut through the noise.
Built as a simple Excel-based rubric, the tool offers 25 diagnostic indicators across 5 core categories. It auto-scores each leader and generates a visual heatmap to help you act with clarity.
There’s no pitch. No obligation. No cost. Just a proven tool that helps you lead with more insight.
The CDT is a strategic rubric-based assessment that helps HR and L&D professionals quickly evaluate which leaders are most ready for development, where leadership risk may be emerging, and how to allocate development resources more effectively — even within tight budgets.
The CDT is designed for internal Talent, HR, or L&D professionals who are responsible for supporting people managers, high-potential talent, or leadership teams. It’s especially useful when you need to prioritize or justify development investment across a larger pool of leaders.
Most leaders can be assessed in under 10 minutes. The CDT was intentionally designed for speed and clarity, with 5 simple scoring factors across 5 categories.
Yes. While the CDT is designed for confidential use, it’s formatted so you can easily share outputs with leadership teams, business partners, or decision-makers to support succession planning, performance discussions, or budget allocations.
No training is required. The CDT comes with a built-in scoring guide, and you will have access to a short video that provides everything you need to get started immediately.
The CDT is 100% free to use with no obligation. If you ever decide you’d like support interpreting results and/or designing targeted development strategy for your leaders, you can schedule an optional Debrief Meeting with Mark (creator of the CDT) — but there’s no requirement to do so.
Because leadership needs change fast — and by the time an issue is visible, it may already be costing you. The CDT gives you a proactive view, so you can make more confident, evidence-based decisions before coaching needs become urgent.
