The Leadership Wheel, developed by Rod Napier, Ph.D, Julie Roberts, Ph.D, and Pat Sanaghan, Ed.D, offers leaders, facilitators, trainers, coaches, human resource professionals, organizational change agents, and consultants the opportunity to administer and interpret leadership styles through a classic, innovative approach.

After extensive research and exploration of the Native American culture, beliefs, and traditions; a process was crafted to connect the attributes of the Medicine Wheel to a diagnostic tool for leadership development. The leadership style inventory assessment serves to heighten the awareness of one's leadership style with regard to specific behaviors and tendencies which occur during normal and stressful time periods.

The leadership wheel emerges as a great teaching mechanism to help individuals more closely align, respect, and appreciate a specific style. The styles complement the Medicine Wheel which serve at the heart of Native American spirituality. In addition to understanding one's own style, an opportunity exists to gain knowledge about other styles and identify traits which assist an individual in one's own quest for effective leadership development. This is a significant tool for those seeking sustainable change through seeing themselves and their teams, perhaps, for the very first time. The Leadership Wheel is easy to understand, rich in history and grounded research, and portrays in a simple, yet elegant manner.
