· Briefly compare and contrast the leadership styles you selected. 

Select 2 of the 3 assessments to explain and analyze your results: 

· Leadership Behavior Questionnaire. What do your scores suggest about your leadership style? Are you more likely to lead with an emphasis on task or with an emphasis on relationship? Are there ways to change your behavior to shift the emphasis you give to tasks and relationships?

· Situational Leadership: A Brief Questionnaire. How well did you do? What factors might make it harder for you to be more directive as a leader? More supportive?

· Path–Goal Leadership Questionnaire. What style do you tend to rely on most? Least?
