12.2 PATH-GOAL STYLES QUESTIONNAIRE

Purpose
1.   To identify your path-goal styles of leadership
2.   To examine how your use of each style relates to other styles of leadership
Directions
1.   For each of the statements below, circle the number that indicates the frequency with which you engage in the expressed behavior.
2.   Give your immediate impressions. There are no right or wrong answers.

Scoring
1.   Sum the responses on items 1, 5, and 9 (directive leadership).

3.   Sum the responses on items 3, 7, and 11 (participative leadership).

Participative leadership: __________
Achievement-oriented leadership: __________
Scoring Interpretation
This questionnaire is designed to measure four types of path-goal leadership: directive, supportive, participative, and achievement-oriented. By comparing your scores on each of the four styles, you can determine which style is your strongest and which is your weakest. For example, if your scores were directive leadership = 21, supportive leadership = 10, participative leadership = 19, and achievement-oriented leadership = 7, your strengths would be directive and participative leadership, and your weaknesses would be supportive and achievement-oriented leadership. While this questionnaire measures your dominant styles, it also indicates the styles you may want to strengthen or improve.
If your score is 13–15, you are in the high range.
If your score is 6–12, you are in the moderate range.
If your score is 3–5, you are in the low range.
