Workforce Development Group - Strategies for Inclusive Leadership - How you can self-assess

Organizational Assessment

Use this assessment to determine your organization's strengths and opportunities. Please rate how, in your perception, your organization is faring in these areas. Workforce Development Group will provide you with recommendations for action and strategic planning. There is no right or wrong, good or bad in this assessment. Organizations are necessarily complex, and every organization has strengths and weaknesses in terms of how they make use of their people. The organizational assessment is confidential: we will not share your results with anyone. Please answer the questions below honestly.
