The Leadership Versatility Index™: Standard Version (LVI) is a 360º assessment based upon a model of leadership effectiveness that focuses on the versatility required of those in senior management positions. Reflecting the multiple demands made of managers, the LVI focuses upon how flexible and well-rounded an individual's leadership style is. The LVI Standard Version is comprised of 64 rating scale items and designed to be completed in less than 15 minutes.
