Shannon was a tremendous help to me. Her process is well-defined and easy to implement, with many practical tools that have been consistently helpful to me. I highly recommend her, regardless of where you are in your career path.

I highly recommend working with Shannon and her Walk of Life team. They have a well-developed curriculum, thoughtful resources, and a well-researched approach to recruitment, positioning, and networking.

Hiring Shannon was one of the best decisions I have ever made for myself. She did a wonderful job of opening my mind to the lingo of sustainability, which has allowed me to identify precisely what I want to do. She also helped me create the marketing materials I need to sell myself for those roles.

Leadership Circle Profile™

The Leadership Circle Profile is the only instrument that measures the two primary leadership domains – Creative Competencies and Reactive Tendencies – and integrates this information so that key opportunities for leadership development immediately rise to the surface. Administered and debriefed by a Certified Practitioner who specializes in your industry and organizational needs, the Leadership Circle Profile assessment and debrief process is specifically tailored to every individual’s development.

THREE TOOLS IN ONE

Most 360° profiles focus on either Management Style and Personality, Competencies, or Underlying Tendencies. The Leadership Circle Profile combines all three of these areas into one comprehensive, accessible tool.

Leadership Circle Profile™

Imagine holding up a mirror to see the leader within you.

The Leadership Circle Profile (LCP) is an innovative breakthrough in 360° profiling. It is the first comprehensive 360° leadership assessment tool to combine core leadership competencies with inner developmental traits, offering a holistic view of your effectiveness as a leader. It integrates:

Creative Competencies – Effective behaviors like fostering relationships, achieving results, and strategic thinking.
Reactive Tendencies – Internal barriers like control, compliance, and protective actions that may limit potential.

With intuitive visuals and a research-backed framework, LCP aligns with your goals to drive growth and performance.

Ready to transform as a leader from the inside out?

As a certified ICF-PCC executive coach since 2017 and an accredited Leadership Circle Profile coach, Shannon was selected as a Meta Coach to teach Daniel Goleman’s Emotional Intelligence Coach Certification course. Shannon is also certified in Harrison Assessments, The GameChanger Index and Korn Ferry's ESCI 360. PCC credential holders are trained, experienced coaches with a commitment to high ethical standards.
