Project Homework: Leadership Assessment
Earlier in the course, you were asked to informally evaluate your leadership skills and qualities. In this Project, you use formal assessment tools to identify your areas of strength and areas in which you need further development. You may use the results of this self-assessment to develop a plan to gain the skills and experiences that will help you move toward achieving your short- and long-term professional goals and objectives.
Using the assessment tools provided in Introduction to Leadership: Concepts and Practice, conduct a self-assessment of your own leadership characteristics, style, and skills. Complete at least four assessment tools for this self-assessment (I have attached what assessment tools I used and the results. In addition, select one tool to give to a colleague or supervisor so he or she can assess your leadership skills.
