What's My Leadership Style? | HRDQ

What’s My Leadership Style?

One of the fundamental aspects of being an effective leader is recognizing “how” you operate. This powerful leadership assessment tool provides users with a comprehensive overview of their preferred leadership style. Their results fall into one of four categories: direct, spirited, considerate, and systematic.

This training program includes both an assessment and a workshop. Assessment-takers are presented with 20 pairs of actions relating to leadership behavior and must indicate the degree to which they prefer either when acting as a leader. After scoring, you can work with the assessment-takers to interpret the scores, discuss, debrief, and plan the next steps. The accompanying Facilitator Guide helps outline this process and expand it into a formalized, two-hour workshop program.

Campbell Leadership Descriptor

This self-assessment empowers employees to define leadership for themselves, encouraging critical thought on what leadership qualities they value and what leadership characteristics are considered essential for success.

Assessment-takers are presented with pairs of adjectives and are asked to choose which are “good” and “bad” in their opinion. After judging these adjectives, participants then map their skills against those they defined as critical. In the examination process, employees can see how they match up to personal standards, self-identifying areas for improvement, and focus moving forward.
