Change Style Indicator

About the Change Style Indicator

The Change Style Indicator (CSI) is a leadership assessment designed to measure an individual’s preferred style in approaching and addressing change.

​

It provides leaders of all levels with insights on personal preferences for managing through change and provides context for how those around them might perceive them and respond to their preferred style. This self-scoring assessment assesses participant’s Change Style by asking them to rate how much they agree with 20 items, which are presented in pairs.

​

Respondents will be placed on a 120-point continuum between “Conserver” and “Originator” change styles, with “Pragmatist” in between.

​

  • Conservers: Prefer gradual, structured change

​

  • Pragmatists: Prefer to explore the current situation in an objective manner and make logical changes

​

  • Originators: Prefer a faster and more radical approach to change

The Change Navigator (CN) is a change leadership tool that helps people to understand their emotional reactions to change and how to respond effectively.  It includes an assessment and workbook and can be used in team workshops or individual coaching sessions.
