Chapter 1:

Based on your score on the Conceptualizing Leadership Questionnaire, how do you assess your ability to lead? Based on the questionnaire results, identify specific ways you could improve your leadership abilities. Insert your answers in the text box following each question. Text boxes will expand automatically as text is entered:

1. Each of us has our own unique way of thinking about leadership. What leaders or people have influenced you in your thinking about leadership? Discuss what leadership means to you and give your definition of leadership.

2. What do the scores you received on the Conceptualizing Leadership Questionnaire suggest about your perspective on leadership? Of the six dimensions on the questionnaire (trait, ability, skill, behavior, relationship, and process), which one is the most similar to your own perspective? Which one is least like your own perspective?

3. Do you think leadership is something everyone can learn to do, or do you think it is a natural ability reserved for a few? Explain your answer.

4. Treating leadership as a relationship has ethical implications. How could adding the relationship approach to your leadership make you a better leader? Discuss.

Chapter 2:

Which three individual average LT scores differed the most (±) from your self-rated perceptions of your personal leadership traits? Why did those trait scores differ?

1.

Perceptive -

2.

Self-Assured – Score differ because at times I’m unsure about my day-to-day life. At times I feel as if everything I’m doing is great and then in the back of my mind it’s not so I start second guessing myself.
