“The insights gained from the whole suite, but in particular of the Context Based 360° Leadership Assessment™ was powerful and allowed us to develop our existing leaders to a significantly better level of effectiveness.”
CEO, Cullman Regional Medical Center
While there are a number of things measured by traditional 360°s, ExecuSmart focuses on specific leader behaviors and styles that have been validated in leadership research.
The c360°™ refines these measures to assure their developmental insight and predictive power. It consistently demonstrates powerful reliability, validity, and, in particular, the predictive validity of the following leadership styles and behaviors:
Directive Leadership
Leader behaviors:
Transactional Leadership
Leader behaviors:
Transformational Leadership
Leader behaviors:
Empowering Leadership

Cullman Regional Medical Center is a small hospital in Northern Alabama which found itself in some financial difficulty and in the need of new leadership, so a new CEO was hired.
They engaged EAI in the development of data for all leaders across the organization, some culture change activities including basic cultural targets, as well as competency model-building to understand the business and leadership need.
Beyond financial performance, the hospital’s quality performance has improved substantially. Massive improvement in EBITDA margin, 26%, along with substantial changes in the mortality rate (28%), and overall clinical quality.
CEO James Clements attributes part of the success of the effort to the insight gained from the c360°™.
