The Leadership Dashboard uses multiple lenses that each provide a unique perspective on human cognition, emotion, and personality. While no single behavioral model can fully explain the complexity of humans, each lens offers insights into ourselves, and others, and how we can improve our effectiveness as individuals and teams. Lenses are selected based on the needs of the team, and multiple lenses can be integrated over time to provide a holistic, multi-lens perspective.
