Option #1: Leadership Style - (hoping for help on short notice)

Self-assessments enable you to learn more about yourself. These instruments feature behavioral questionnaires that address a variety of personal attributes, such as personality, emotional intelligence, communication abilities, motivation, and decision making. The overall expectation is that these instruments will provide you with value-added results, which will help you to hone your skills as a solid decision maker and leader.

Using the links to the self assessments in the lecture, or self assessments you find online, take at least one emotional intelligence assessment, one decision-making assessment, and one leadership assessment.

• Discuss the outcomes of the assessments in a paper by specifically addressing:
  • Your individual personality
  • How your personality fits into the organization to which you currently belong
  • Your decision-making style
  • How your personality, EQ, and decision-making style impact your organizational contributions and leadership
• Answer the following questions:
  • Are you effective in your role within your organization or elsewhere (identify the role)?
  • What common biases might impact your decision making?
  • What could you do to be a more effective decision maker?
  • How does all of the information that you have gathered from these assessments and your analysis reflect on you as a leader?

Assignment Requirements:

• Your paper should be 4-5 pages in length, not counting the required title and references pages.
• Format your paper according to the CSU-Global Guide to Writing & APA (Links to an external site.).
