Assessment - 6 STYLES OF MANAGING PEOPLE
This questionnaire has been designed to help you to assess your approach to working and communicating with other people. It lists a number of different ways in which you might act towards people that you work with and asks you to think about how often you act in each of these ways.

None of these behaviors are good or bad in themselves. There are no " right " or " wrong " answers. You will get the most value from this exercise by being completely honest with yourself. Don't spend too long considering your replies: your immediate spontaneous answer is likely to be the most appropriate.

If you find it difficult to give just one answer to a question ( perhaps because you consider that you act differently towards different people ), we suggest that you try to give an " average answer " on this form. You can then raise this issue for discussion at a later review. When you have finished ALL the questions, please transfer your answers to the Score Sheet.
