A Behavioral Calibration Instrument for Observable Stewardship
The SRI-16 Multi-Rater (360 Edition) extends the Stewardship Readiness Framework beyond self-reflection by incorporating structured feedback from colleagues, peers, direct reports, supervisors, or other stakeholders.
While the SRI-16 Self Assessment measures how individuals perceive their own stewardship behaviors, the Multi-Rater examines how those same behaviors are consistently experienced by others.
The purpose is not agreement.
The purpose is greater awareness.
Leadership becomes more trustworthy when self-perception and observable experience are examined together.
Purpose
Responsible leadership requires more than good intentions.
The SRI-16 Multi-Rater provides a structured process for comparing self-assessment with external observations across the same eight stewardship domains.
The instrument helps identify:
- Areas of strong behavioral consistency
- Blind spots between self-perception and observed behavior
- Opportunities for intentional leadership development
- Patterns that may influence organizational trust and relational health
The assessment is developmental rather than evaluative.
Who This Instrument Is For
The SRI-16 Multi-Rater is appropriate for:
- Leaders with formal responsibility for others
- Executive and organizational leadership teams
- Nonprofit and governance boards
- Stewardship Degree III (Architect) participants
- Coaches and facilitators supporting leadership development
- Organizations seeking structured behavioral feedback
What the SRI-16 Measures
The assessment evaluates sixteen observable behaviors across eight stewardship domains.
Coherence
Consistency between commitments and actions.
Emotional Regulation & Repair
Respectful engagement and relational restoration under challenge.
Service Orientation
Consideration for the well-being of others.
Power Integrity
Responsible use of authority and influence.
Humility & Learning
Receptivity to feedback and continuous learning.
Accountability
Ownership of decisions and their consequences.
Systems Awareness
Recognition of long-term organizational impact.
Resonant Presence
Creating environments where others feel psychologically safe to contribute honestly.
Each participant completes a self-assessment while invited raters evaluate the same behavioral indicators, allowing meaningful comparison across perspectives.
What You Receive
The Professional Edition includes:
- SRI-16 Multi-Rater assessment instrument
- Facilitator administration guide
- Rater instructions
- Scoring matrix
- Self–Others Gap Analysis framework
- Debrief and reflection guide
- Excel tabulation workbook
Time Required
Typical completion time:
Participants: 6–8 minutes
Raters: 6–8 minutes each
Facilitated debrief time varies depending on context.
Using the Results
The value of the Multi-Rater lies in patterns rather than individual responses.
After completing the assessment:
- Compare self-ratings with aggregate rater feedback.
- Identify areas of strong alignment.
- Examine significant perception gaps with curiosity rather than defensiveness.
- Select one or two behaviors for intentional development.
- Repeat periodically to observe changes over time.
The objective is increased behavioral coherence, not perfect agreement.
Relationship to the Degree Pathway
Within the Stewardship Degree Pathway, the SRI-16 Multi-Rater serves as a significant developmental milestone.
| Degree | Role of the SRI-16 Multi-Rater |
|---|---|
| 🌿 Degree II – Steward | Not required |
| 🏛️ Degree III – Architect | Required behavioral calibration milestone |
| 🌍 Degree IV – Custodian | Foundational evidence supporting Guardian Calibration |
Outside the Degree Pathway, the instrument may be used independently for leadership development and organizational learning.

Stewardship Integrity Statement
The SRI-16 Multi-Rater measures observed frequency of behavior as perceived by multiple respondents.
It does not measure:
- personality
- intelligence
- identity
- spiritual attainment
- moral worth
- leadership potential in isolation
Results are:
- Context-dependent
- Perception-based
- Developmental in purpose
The instrument exists to strengthen responsibility where influence expands. It is not intended for ranking, diagnosis, coercive evaluation, or employment decisions without appropriate governance safeguards.
Stewardship is demonstrated through consistent patterns of behavior over time and across relationships.
