FREE Decision Chain™ Analysis:analysis.next-leveledleadershipinterviewprep.comA school board may understand the decision you made without understanding how you arrived there.Episode 130 continues our examination of the Superintendent Selection Index™ (SSI) with its second dimension: Decision-Making Visibility.Using a real superintendent interview case study, we examine a candidate who reflected on an earlier approach to budgeting and explained why greater transparency and participation became part of the decision-making process.We also compare that response with another case-study example where a candidate discussed difficult program and staffing reductions but provided less information about how those particular reductions were determined.Together, the examples help illustrate the difference between telling the board what you decided and providing enough evidence for members to evaluate the judgment behind consequential decisions.Executive Interview Intelligence™ | Research Observation #158Board confidence can strengthen when candidates provide enough evidence across the interview for members to understand how they arrive at consequential decisions.The Superintendent Selection Index™ examines the executive leadership evidence that accumulates across a superintendent interview and what that evidence may communicate about a candidate.Executive Interview Intelligence™ is built on more than 300 hours of superintendent interview analysis, including over 500 real superintendent interview questions and candidate responses.Record one of your superintendent interview responses and receive complimentary instant feedback:analysis.next-leveledleadershipinterviewprep.comBecause you already know what you're saying.The real question is...What is the board hearing?
