Measuring management capability is intrinsically complex. Unlike sales training, where you have sales, or customer-service training, where you have CSAT scores, management doesn’t have a built-in metric we can use to quantify learning impact. So, what’s the solution?
This week on The Mind Tools L&D Podcast, Ross Dickie is joined by Owen and Anna to discuss our new ‘Manager Skills Assessment’ — a scientific diagnostic that managers and their organizations can use to evaluate their capability. We discuss:
-
what the Manager Skills Assessment (MSA) is, and how it works;
-
how we designed the MSA based on scientific research;
-
what managers and L&D teams can expect to get out of the MSA.

In ‘What I Learned This Week’, Owen mentioned SpaceX’s ‘Mechazilla’.
Ross D also referenced Donald Taylor and Egle Vinauskaite’s latest report, AI in L&D: Intention and Reality.
