Mattone Leadership Enneagram Inventory (MLEI)®

You Must Go Deep to Understand Your Inner-Core.

The Mattone Leadership Enneagram Inventory (MLEI)® is the same assessment that the late Steve Jobs took in 2010 which later served as the centerpiece of his coaching sessions with John Mattone. Today it is the inner-core assessment leaders take in the first month of Intelligent Leadership executive coaching.

Discover Your Inner-Core Gifts & Gaps

The Most Revealing Inner-Core Assessment

The Mattone Leadership Enneagram Inventory (MLEI)® is one of the most revealing “inner-core” leadership assessments that exist in the marketplace today. It is the strength, vibrancy and maturity of a leader's character, self-concept, values, thinking patterns and emotional make-up (inner-core) that determines their success in the “outer-core” (skills and competencies). In other words, success as a leader starts with greatness in the “inner-core”.

As a coaching client, you receive two MLEI reports: (1) the MLEI Interpretive Report; and (2) the MLEI Coaching Report, with practical strategies to strengthen your inner-core strengths and address your gaps.

“The most important decision you can make to become the absolute best leader and person you can be is the decision to be vulnerable. Most people look at this decision as weak, while the best of the best see it as strong, requiring massive courage. Taken together, vulnerability and courage are the seeds that ignite growth in people.”
