Self-assessment is important for people to be able to track the progress of their competence as a director over time.
The AICD’s Director Self-assessment Tool (SAT) allows directors to assess their current director capabilities and skills.
“The person that really knows their competence is the director themselves. Doing self-assessment regularly is a very important step for our members,” says AICD Membership Pathways Lead Philip Latham.
In the latest update of the Director Self-assessment Tool (SAT), colours now match AICD corporate style guidelines, which makes the report diagrams much clearer and easier to read. The term “Chairman” has been changed to “Chair”.
The Director Self-assessment Tool reports now allow users to see their responses to every question, every time they complete the SAT, and save and print them. Previously, they were only able to see their top 10 areas of competence and their top 10 areas for improvement.
“These changes are just the first step, but it's a signal that we're serious about improving the Director self-assessment Tool,” says Latham.
By understanding your current skill set, you can better focus your professional development, enhance your skills and confidently undertake your role in the ever-evolving governance environment.
The assessment takes 30 minutes and can be completed at any time, anywhere, on any device. It will:
Provide a real-time customised report detailing areas of strength and areas for development
Suggest a learning pathway tailored to your sector
Compare your report with previous reports to confirm the shift in your skills and capability
Enable you to compare yourself with other members who are in the same sector and have completed the SAT
Give you the option of sharing your report with an AICD staff member to engage in a personalised career conversation.
