The Defence Team Coaching Program's (DTCP) coaching services are directly related to promoting a culture of leadership, respect, and honor through the strong, secure, engaged defence policy. The DTCP coaches senior CAF and civilian leaders who are nominated by succession managers as well as leadership teams who have a significant impact on DND’s organizational success.

The Psychometric tools offered at the DTCP directly impact the profession of arms and the organizational culture of the CAF. Leadership development is based on a professional development system centered on a meta-competency and competency model. Psychometric tools offered development ranges based on self-knowledge, self-development, developing soft skills and managing crucial elements such as group dynamics, decision-making, stress management and interpersonal relationships. A leader who knows their self-better (self- knowledge), who is involved in a continuous cycle of competency development (self- development) and who is effective in interpersonal relationships will be a more effective communicator. The type of leader will be better able to measure the impact of their words, to strengthen team cohesion through more precise, adapted communication and to recognize the needs of their audience.

Psychometric tools are vectors for personal and professional growth that reinforce the development of key competencies. There are many psychometric tools on the market. To properly support the DTCP, specific tools have been identified as more effective and advantageous.
