INSTRUCTIONS: Develop a personal statement or philosophy on leadership. In this case, creating and describing what leadership is and what it means to you will help to develop an understanding of why you participate in leadership. Your statement can include: your definition of leadership, a description of leadership qualities, or what you think is the most important thing about leadership.

1-2 paragraph per self-assessment summary required

INSTRUCTIONS: You will be provided more detailed instructions on the exact questionnaires to complete throughout the semester. Once you complete a questionnaire, you will rate or score your responses. In addition, you will write a 1-2 paragraph summary of your results based on the scoring interpretation and questions presented at the end of the questionnaire.

INSTRUCTIONS: In this section, you have an opportunity to highlight some of your moments of inspiration throughout the semester. Leadership development is a deliberate act. You must be present, dedicated and actively engaged in the process. Be as daring, courageous and creative as you’d like! You will provide at least five examples/experiences with a brief description of what is it, why you were inspired and how it relates to leadership. Limit to no more than 3 pages.

2-3 pages required

INSTRUCTIONS: The final aspect of your leadership portfolio is a 2-3 page essay on your leadership development experience this semester. In this essay you want to describe if and how you’ve grown as a leader. Describe in detail how your experiences, self-assessment results, dialogue in class discussion forums, textbook readings, videos, etc. impacted your leadership growth. As you reflect, ensure that you answer the following questions:

· How has your definition of leadership changed during the semester? If it did not, explain why?

· Has your ability to effectively communicate with others changed? Why or why not?

· Did you experience an increase in awareness of yourself and others in relation to leadership? If not, explain why.

· How have you demonstrated the skills necessary to work collaboratively? Effectively communicate? Lead a team?

· Which leadership style do you must closely align with? Why? As an example, are you a transformational or situational leader? Or a combination of a few styles?

· Describe how you better understand leadership as a process, not a position?

· Discuss how you have sought opportunities to enhance your leadership development and engage in leadership behaviors. Have you adjusted how you lead and/or follow others?

· Overall, how was your experience in the course? Do you believe that your leadership and communication skills have improved? Has your confidence grown as a leader?

· What do you plan to do to continue to hone your leadership and communication skills beyond this class?
