Scoring Interpretation
This questionnaire is designed to measure your task-oriented and relationship-oriented leadership behavior. By
comparing your scores, you can determine which style is more dominant in your own style of leadership. If your
task score is higher than your relationship score, you tend to give more attention to goal accomplishment and
somewhat less attention to people-related matters. If your relationship score is higher than your task score, your
primary concern tends to be dealing with people, and your secondary concern is directed more toward tasks.
If your scores are very similar to each other, it suggests that your leadership is balanced and includes an equal
amount of both behaviors.
