BACKGROUND
Current research in organisational leadership indicates that the 'leadership effect' of increased performance is achieved by efforts both on the part of the appointed 'leaders' and by informal leaders throughout all levels. There are several different areas of organsational life where the effect is seen.
This short survey asks you to self-assess your leadership behaviours on a number of questions. This will allow us to give you a profile of scores for each leadership area.
Each item asks you to rate yourself on a scale where, much like the fable of Goldilocks, the mid point is 'just right' and either side is some degree of 'too much' or 'too little'. This scoring reflects the underlying idea that excellent leadership allows the organisation--and leaders within it--to find and maintain ' dynamic poise'. Like a kayaker balancing herself shooting a rapid, or gymnast balancing himself on a beam, the skill lies in finding the 'just right' place from moment to moment.
