Assessments and Their Use in Leadership Development

Russ Haworth, ACFBA and a consultant with The Family Business Consultancy, interviews Natalie McVeigh, a director in EisnerAmper’s Center for Family Business Excellence.

In this episode, we discuss the use of assessments in helping to develop leaders within a family business. Natalie talks about acumen, where to start when looking at assessments, the role culture plays in a business, and why these are assessments and not tests. We discuss attitude versus aptitude and the fact that data tells a story. In addition, we also look at the role of coaches and mentors.
