You’ve built something great, but leading a team is a whole different skill set.
The Leadership Challenge
› You’re constantly pulled into the day-to-day.
› Your team relies on you more than you’d like.
› You want to empower them, but you’re not sure where to start.

Finally, some clarity…

About The Leader Growth Lab
Built on research. Grounded in real business experience.
We’re on a mission to support leaders as they grow – whether you’re a business owner looking to build a sustainable team; a new leader thrown into the deep end; or you’re dealing with the everyday challenges of individual personalities and trying to build a culture that thrives.
This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about making leadership easier, more effective, and way less lonely.
The 360 Leadership Assessment draws from evidence-based leadership models and behavioural psychology, translated into language that makes sense in real businesses, not boardrooms.
Each question is designed to surface the habits that truly affect how teams function. The insights don’t come from theory alone – they come from listening to leaders like you, and refining the tool to reflect what actually happens in growing teams.
One conversation can save a resignation.
When people don’t feel supported, they leave. Replacing them costs tens of thousands in recruitment, training, and lost momentum. Now imagine if a single insight from this survey helped a leader adjust their approach — and kept just one great team member on board. What would that be worth to you?

Frequently Asked Questions about Leadership
Why is leadership development important in small business?
Strong leadership isn’t just for big corporations. In small businesses, the way a leader shows up has a direct impact on culture, communication, and performance. Investing in leadership development helps owners build trust, delegate effectively, and grow a team that can operate without constant supervision.
Is leadership development worth the cost?
The cost of poor leadership is rarely a line item in the budget — but it shows up everywhere. Miscommunication alone can waste hours each week across a team. A disengaged employee can cost around a third of their salary in lost productivity. When people feel unsupported and leave, replacing them can cost 50–100% of their annual salary, not to mention the impact on morale and continuity. Add to that the ripple effects of low accountability, rework, stress, and missed opportunities, and the hidden costs easily climb into the tens or hundreds of thousands. Leadership development is one of the few investments that directly reduces these costs while lifting culture, retention, and performance.
How do I know if I’m a good leader?
It’s hard to judge your own leadership – what matters is how your team experiences you. Look for signs like low engagement, repeated questions, or bottlenecks in decision-making. Tools like a 360 leadership assessment can give you clear, honest feedback from your team, alongside your own self-reflection.
What is a 360 leadership assessment?
A 360 leadership assessment collects feedback from the people you work with -your team, peers, and even yourself, to give a well-rounded view of how you lead. It helps identify blind spots, strengths, and areas to improve, making it one of the most effective tools for leadership growth.
How can I build a team that works without me?
Start by developing leadership habits like clear delegation, building trust, and encouraging ownership. Empower your team with systems, expectations, and space to solve problems. The right tools can show where your leadership might be creating dependency, and how to shift that.
What’s the first step to becoming a better leader?
Start by getting feedback – about how you lead, how your team feels, and where you might be out of sync. From there, choose one area to work on. Clarity is the first step to confidence.
What skills make a good team leader?
Great leaders communicate clearly, give feedback effectively, build trust, delegate wisely, and develop others. They also model self-awareness and resilience. These aren’t just traits – you can learn and strengthen them through practice and feedback.
How do I get better feedback from my team?
Create safe, anonymous ways for your team to share feedback. Ask specific questions, avoid defensiveness, and show you’re willing to listen. A structured tool like a 360 assessment makes this easier and more honest, especially if your team is hesitant to speak up directly.
How can I improve as a leader while running a business?
You don’t need to stop everything to work on leadership. Small, focused changes can make a big difference. Start by understanding how you’re currently showing up to your team, then choose one area to improve, like communication or delegation. Insight leads to action.
What’s the best way to develop leadership in my team?
Give people ownership, support their growth, and offer feedback regularly. Instead of promoting based on tenure, develop people based on capability. Leadership isn’t one-size-fits-all – tools that highlight strengths and development areas help you tailor your approach.
How do I stop being the bottleneck in my business?
If every decision still runs through you, your team can’t fully step up. The key is building trust, setting clear expectations, and letting go of control in stages. Knowing how your team sees you as a leader helps identify where you’re unconsciously holding things back.
