Abstract: Thirteen company level commands participated in a study to determine the operational feasibility of the Leadership Evaluation and Analysis Program (LEAP). The data were analyzed collectively to provide a guide to facilitate unit analyses and to help establish unit standards and objectives. The results are presented according to several principal areas of interest, viz., total command, senior-subordinate interaction, intergroup relations, career planning, and performance and validity measures. In addition to the standard scale scores produced by the motivational assessment technique (Interaction Inventory), a unit Disparity Index was developed as a measure of disunity or disagreement between senior and subordinate members and racial/ethnic groups of a command. The predictive validity of the Interaction Inventory was established using unauthorized absenteeism and first term reenlistment rates as criteria. Scale scores and disparity measures were significant predictors of performance on seven of the eight scales applied. A strong foundation for acceptance and implementation of the LEAP has been established through field testing, data analyses, and application of standard validation procedures. The results contained in this report indicate that the LEAP is a viable organizational development method which may have a significant impact on the future management of personnel in the Marine Corps.
