The Emotional and Social Competency Inventory (ESCI) is a powerful, research-backed leadership feedback tool developed by Korn Ferry and Daniel Goleman, the pioneer of emotional intelligence (EQ).

It’s used by top global companies to identify leadership strengths, surface blind spots, and accelerate the growth of high-potential talent.

Here’s what you’ll get:

✅ 360° Feedback from the People Who Matter

Your ESCI report gathers confidential feedback from your manager, peers, direct reports, and even clients—giving you a well-rounded view of how others experience your leadership in real, everyday moments.

✅ 21 Leadership Competencies Across 4 Domains

You’ll be scored across four critical dimensions of leadership:

• Self-Awareness

• Self-Management

• Social Awareness

• Relationship Management

These are the core emotional and social skills that drive performance, collaboration, trust, and influence.

✅ Side-by-Side Comparison of How You See Yourself vs. How Others See You

Your report shows the gaps and overlaps between your self-perception and others’ perceptions, so you can spot areas of alignment—and areas where you may be unintentionally holding yourself back.

✅ Clear Patterns, Not Just Raw Data

The ESCI report goes beyond averages. It highlights recurring patterns in how you show up as a leader, across relationships and contexts—giving you clarity and direction, not just numbers.

✅ Development Priorities You Can Act On Immediately

The report surfaces your top three strengths and top three areas for development—giving you a tight focus for fast, meaningful improvement.

✅ Trusted by the World’s Best

Used by Fortune 500 companies, global nonprofits, and elite leadership development programs, the ESCI is rigorously validated and internationally recognized. This isn’t a generic personality quiz—it’s a professional-grade assessment built for career impact.

The ESCI is more than a feedback tool—it’s a leadership mirror that shows you exactly where you shine and where to sharpen.

It gives you the insight and clarity most professionals never receive—so you can grow with intention, lead with confidence, and step into the career you’re ready for.

FAQ’s

Q: What’s the difference between this and a regular performance review?
A: Performance reviews are often limited, biased, or focused only on task completion. The ESCI gives you confidential, honest input from multiple people across your work life—specifically focused on the emotional and social leadership traits that drive real influence, trust, and promotions.

Q: Do I need to ask my manager or HR for permission to do this?
A: No. This is a private, professional development investment. You choose your raters (manager, peers, team members, etc.), and we handle all outreach. Many professionals even share their report with their manager afterward to start powerful development conversations.

Q: How long does it take to complete?
A: Your time commitment is minimal. Just 15 minutes to fill out your intake form and select raters, plus a 45 debrief coaching call. That’s it—we handle the rest.

Q: Is this only for managers or leaders?
A: No. This is for any high-performing professional who wants to lead with more influence—whether you’re leading a team, a project, or just want to be seen as a leader before you get the title.

Q: How many people will give me feedback?
A: Most participants select 6–10 raters (including a mix of manager, peers, and direct reports), which gives enough data to identify strong patterns while keeping the process smooth and fast.

Q: What if I get feedback I don’t like?
A: Feedback can be uncomfortable—but it’s often the gateway to breakthrough growth. We help you process any hard messages in a constructive, empowering way. No shame—only clarity and momentum.

Q: What if my raters don’t respond?
A: We manage all communication—friendly reminders and follow-up—to ensure a strong response rate. We typically see 80–100% completion rates with our process.

Q: Is my feedback confidential?
A: Absolutely. All responses are anonymous and aggregated. Individual comments are never tied to names, so your raters can be honest—and you can trust the results.

Q: Can I do this with my whole team?
A: Yes! We offer group rates and team debriefs for companies and managers who want to invest in multiple employees. [Reach out here] to learn more about team options.

Q: What if I don’t feel like the results were helpful?
