Public Sector Leadership Assessment
Public sector leadership assessment is a structured method for measuring the traits, behaviors, competencies and effectiveness of leaders in government and public organizations against an explicit leadership model. It draws on Montgomery Van Wart's influential 2003 synthesis of public-sector leadership theory, which integrated trait, behavioral, transformational and transactional traditions into a model tailored to the constraints of public service, alongside Bernard Bass's foundational work on transformational leadership. The assessment typically uses multi-rater (360-degree) surveys in which leaders, their supervisors, peers and subordinates rate observable behaviors, and the results feed both individual development and organizational leadership-capacity planning.
