Abstract
A method and system for an organization and/or employer to evaluate the leadership skills of individuals and/or employees, and to compare the leadership skills of individuals to average leadership skills for the employer'"'"'s organization and/or industry. Individual personality and behavioral data from the employer and/or other sources are evaluated to determine two scores, one rating management skills and the other rating experience level. A graph comparing each individual to baseline management skill averages for the organization and/or the relevant industry, to baseline experience level averages for the organization and/or the relevant industry, and to a best fit line generated from multiple individual personality and behavioral data is generated. Individuals can then be grouped into categories based on combinations of high and low management skills and high and low experience level. The category within which an individual falls reflects the individual'"'"'s assessed leadership qualities.
