Situational Leadership & Skill-Will Matrix Tool

This free Situational Leadership Matrix tool, also known as the Skill-Will Matrix, helps managers and team leaders evaluate team performance by assessing both skill level and motivation (will) for each team member.

How the Skill-Will Matrix Improves Leadership Decisions

By mapping individuals across four development levels, this tool clearly identifies whether a team member needs Directing, Coaching, Supporting, or Delegating. This ensures leaders apply the most effective leadership style based on real capability and engagement.

Who Should Use This Situational Leadership Tool?

This leadership assessment tool is ideal for managers, founders, HR professionals, and team leads who want to improve performance management, align leadership behavior with individual needs, and build stronger, more accountable teams.
