Crowdsourced Assessment Makes the Grade

Crowdsourced Assessment Makes the Grade

gantthead.com® today announced the release of version 2 of its Project Management Leadership Self Assessment tool.

Washington, DC (Vocus) February 23, 2009 -- gantthead.com® (http://www.gantthead.com) today announced the release of version 2 of its Project Management Leadership Self Assessment tool. This crowdsourced (http://www.gantthead.com) product is a dramatic improvement over the prior version, used by over 100K project managers to review their leadership skills and abilities.

"The interesting thing about this tool, isn't really the tool itself - although its top notch. It's the fact that it was developed by gantthead members in a completely transparent environment on the site -- and the end result is fantastic!" offered gantthead's CEO Dave Garrett, "I'm very proud of the fact that project leaders can come together like this, discuss details and go through review cycles in a very open way - resulting in a commercial quality product."

This assessment tool allows you to rate yourself on 30 key attributes to find out where you stand in six crucial leadership areas: collaboration, customer focus, leadership attributes/skills, team development, personal growth and team focus/support. Also included is a list of valuable resources for further professional development. Special thanks go to the Directors of gantthead's Leadership GIG (gantthead interest group) Payson Hall and Naomi Caietti who managed the entire collaborative process.

The Leadership GIG on gantthead.com offers, tools, polls, discussions, deliverable templates and is free to registered members.
