District Executive Leadership Competency Assessment

Gathers 360-style feedback on how a District Executive (DE) or equivalent frontline sales leader performs across core competencies — coaching, recruiting, pipeline discipline, accountability, and culture. Built for RevOps and sales leadership teams; the AI follow-up interview digs into the one lowest-rated competency to surface concrete behavior, not just a score.

Message

That's everything — thank you for the thoughtful feedback! Responses across all raters will be combined into a leadership development summary shared with the District Executive's manager to guide coaching and support.

What’s included

  • AI follow-ups

    Adaptive probes on open-ended answers that pull out detail a static form would miss.

  • Attention checks

    Built-in safeguards against rushed answers and low-quality respondents.

  • AI-drafted copy

    Wording, ordering, and branching written by the AI — tuned to your research goal.

  • Auto report

    Themes, quotes, and a plain-English summary write themselves once responses come in.

How it compares

We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.

Why this template

  • Uses a multi-method design — matrix competency ratings, an opinion scale for overall effectiveness, a ranking exercise, and a MaxDiff prioritization of coaching investment — instead of a single rating grid.
  • The AI follow-up interview automatically identifies whichever competency the respondent rated lowest and asks for a specific, recent example, turning a number into a concrete behavioral story without manual follow-up.
  • Pairs the quantitative ratings with a targeted open-ended prompt (what the DE should start/stop/continue) so leadership gets both scores and actionable text feedback in one flow.
  • Includes context questions on relationship to the DE, tenure in role, team size, and region, so RevOps can segment results — all wrapped in a friendly intro/outro chat message rather than a bare form.

QuestionPro

Leadership Evaluation Survey Template + Sample Questionnaire

A static leadership evaluation questionnaire with sample questions covering general leadership competencies. It's built as a fielding-ready template but is generic rather than tailored to a frontline sales leadership role like a District Executive. Good for a quick baseline survey, not for probing why a rating was low.

What it does well

  • Provides a ready-made sample questionnaire so teams can launch quickly without writing questions from scratch
  • Backed by an established survey platform with broad question-type and reporting support
  • Covers general leadership competency areas applicable across roles

Where it falls short

  • No adaptive follow-up questioning — every respondent sees the same fixed question set regardless of how they rate the leader
  • No visible mechanism to automatically surface a specific behavioral example tied to a respondent's lowest rating
  • Not tailored to sales-specific competencies like pipeline discipline or recruiting

SurveySparrow

Leadership Skills Assessment Questionnaire | Leadership Traits & Style

A conversational-style leadership skills assessment focused on traits and leadership style rather than sales-team-specific competencies. It's a fielding-ready template with a chat-like question flow, but the questions themselves are static and generic across industries. No sales leadership focus (coaching, recruiting, pipeline discipline) is evident.

What it does well

  • Conversational one-question-at-a-time UI that can feel more engaging than a traditional form
  • Framed around leadership traits and style, useful for general people-manager assessments
  • Fielding-ready template that can be deployed without heavy customization

Where it falls short

  • Static question flow with no adaptive AI probing into a respondent's specific low ratings
  • No published scoring methodology or automated quality scoring of open-ended responses
  • Not built around frontline sales leadership competencies like recruiting, pipeline discipline, or accountability
