Adaptiv offers two extensively researched assessments – the Resilience Factor Inventory® (RFI) and the Leadership Excellence Inventory (LEI). Both the RFI and LEI can be deployed in conjunction with Adaptiv training programs, executive coaching engagements, or as part of a related initiative.
The Resilience Factor Inventory® (RFI) is a 60 item instrument that measures 7 essential ingredients of Resilience:
- Emotion Regulation - keeping your emotions in check
- Impulse Control - keeping your behavior in check
- Causal Analysis - diagnosing and solving problems effectively
- Self-efficacy - belief in your ability to handle situations that come your way
- Realistic Optimism - belief in a bright future, but within the bounds of your reality
- Empathy - identifying what motivates others
- Reaching Out - seeking out new opportunities, challenges and relationships
The RFI is a highly reliable and valid measure of Resilience, with normative data from more than 15,000 corporate individuals, managers and leaders. The RFI is available in three versions, depending on your specific needs. All versions are web-based and take only minutes to complete:
The Resilience Factor Inventory - Individual (RFI-I) is a 60-item instrument that measures an individual across the 7 Inner Strengths, or abilities, that together determine Resilience. Individuals receive a profile of strengths and weaknesses across these 7 factors. Participants in Adaptiv training courses take the RFI-I, where the results help them target the specific Adaptiv Skills that provide the maximum resilience boost given their specific profile. Arrangements can be made for other individuals in your organization to take the RFI-I as well. Click here to request access to a demonstration version of the RFI.
The Resilience Factor Inventory - Organization (RFI-O) aggregates the individual responses from the RFI-I across a given team or group. This enables our researchers to detect pockets of high and low Resilience within that group. You will receive a comprehensive analysis in an easy-to-understand format along with recommendations for interventions that will capitalize on the group’s strengths and boost its weaknesses.
The Resilience Factor Inventory - 360 (RFI-360) is a highly-validated coaching tool. It provides a 360º profile of the 7 essential ingredients of Resilience. Completed by peers, subordinates, superiors, as well as the individual coaching client, the RFI-360 profile provides a comprehensive analysis of three different and valuable perspectives on the client's current and potential levels of Resilience. This tool can help the executive coach tailor the resilience coaching process for an individual manager or leader. The RFI-360 can be administered by an Adaptiv Executive Coach, or by your Adaptiv-certified coach.
The Leadership Excellence Inventory (LEI) is a 55 item questionnaire that measures management and leadership effectiveness . Adaptiv’s research has identified 5 critical factors that distinguish between exemplary and ordinary leaders:
- Integrity & Fairness
- Mentoring
- Values
- Connection
- Results
The LEI is a web-based tool that is quick and easy to take and provides immediate scoring upon completion. The scoring profile provides absolute scores on each of the 5 factors as well as a comparison of the scores to scores from a normative sample.
All 5 factors are key to excellence. Many outstanding leaders are strong on Integrity, Mentoring, Values, and Connection. But, hitting the maximum score on the Results scale often comes at the expense of the other 4 factors, so it is important to create a balance across all 5.
The LEI can be deployed as a standalone assessment or as part of an executive coaching process.
