Mind Tools - What's Your Leadership Style? (quiz)
Leadership Quiz, from Mind Tools Content Team
Description:
Learn About the Strengths and Weaknesses of the Way You Like to Lead. When we lead for the first time, we might adopt a style of leadership that we've experienced from someone else, or that we've heard or read about. If it seems to work, we'll likely stick with it – in effect, it becomes "our" style.
But there are many approaches available to us, and a good leader is able to adapt their style according to the situation and the people involved.
This quiz will help you to identify the style that you naturally lean toward, and introduce you to alternative approaches that you might find it helpful to develop, and the occasions when they may be appropriate.
We've based our questions on psychologist Kurt Lewin's Leadership Styles Framework – a model developed in the 1930s that is still popular and useful today.
