2.1.2 Campbell Leadership Index CLI ®

Purpose 

The Campbell Leadership Index (CLI) is a multirater assessment tool designed to measure personal characteristics directly related to successful leadership. The CLI is intended to help organizations assess their entire leadership pool across key domains such as leadership ability, affability, dependability, resilience, and energy.

CLI results can help users:

Gain insights into the leadership capabilities of individuals

Identify areas for improvement or development

Create personalized development plans

Make decisions about promotions or leadership assignments

Enhance overall leadership effectiveness within an organization

Description 

The tool was developed by David P. Campbell. In terms of validity, the tool’s Likert-type questions had Test-retest results ranging from 72-96. Internal consistency ranged from 0.56-0.87. Inter-rater correlations ranged from 0.68-0.82. Validity has been examined in four studies and is moderately strong (Campbell et al., 2002). Limitations may include factors such as cultural bias in the assessment, limited scope of leadership traits assessed, or potential for respondent bias in self-assessment.
