    The Leadership Trust Audit™

    Go Deeper. Get Precise.
    Change What Matters.

    What you experienced here is a preview. The full Leadership Trust Audit delivers the precision required to see exactly where trust is strong, where it is costing you, and what to do about it.

    What the Leadership Trust Audit measures

    Most leadership assessments measure competency. The Leadership Trust Audit measures trust capital: the invisible currency that determines whether people follow you willingly, share information openly, and execute with genuine commitment.

    Grounded in the validated Trust Formula and peer-reviewed leadership research, it goes beyond what you scored here. It surfaces the specific behaviours driving your trust reputation, maps them across every relationship direction, and gives you a precise, prioritised roadmap for what to change and where to start.

    How it works
    Validated, multi-rater assessment. Self-ratings, peer feedback, direct report input, and upward evaluations. Not just how you see yourself, but how trust is actually experienced around you.
    Factor-level diagnostics. Your results are broken down by dimension and by behaviour, so you see exactly which actions are building trust and which are quietly eroding it.
    Benchmarked and repeatable. Your scores are compared against leadership norms, and the audit can be re-administered over time to measure real change, not just intention.
    Available at every level

    The Leadership Trust Audit is designed to scale from a single leader to an entire organisation:

    Individual
    Personal trust profile with self vs. other gap analysis and a prioritised development roadmap. Ideal for coaching and 360 debriefs.
    Team
    Aggregated scores across a leadership group to reveal collective trust patterns, blind spots, and relational dynamics.
    Corporate
    Enterprise-wide benchmarking of trust capital across leadership levels, functions, business units, and geographies.
