“The Leadership Skills assessment is a great way to evaluate your progress in leadership skills development. The mix of activities cover a full range of situations encountered in leadership roles and were both exciting and challenging. I found the staff and moderators to be extremely welcoming, knowledgeable, and skilled in recognizing strengths and areas for growth.”

"I thought the Leadership Skills Assessment course was going to be just another generic workshop; some basic tools that I could take back to work with me. It was much more than that. The Leadership Skills Assessment allowed me to understand the elements of leadership better and where I fit into those elements. It was both challenging and educational as I participated in the different scenarios and engaging activities with the other participants and the USI staff. The USI staff were genuine and supportive. This course allowed me to better understand my strengths as a leader and how those strengths can benefit not only myself but my colleagues at work. It also highlights the areas in which I can better grow and develop my leadership characteristics. The course is real, and the feedback is valuable. And its only 1 day! In such a short amount of time you can learn so much."
