Team Leadership Self Evaluation Scoring Directions

The Team Leadership Self Evaluation is divided into two parts. The top 12 questions help you rate your captain as a Leader by Example. Then the first 12 questions are combined with the final 12 questions to help you rate your captain as a Vocal Leader.

Leader By Example Scoring

The Leader by Example Self Evaluation measures the four critical areas your captain needs to be an effective Leader by Example: Commitment, Confidence, Composure, and Character. To compute your captain’s Leader by Example score, add your ratings for the first 12 questions.

The total for the Leader by Example section should at least be 45 if not higher. Anything 44 and below your captain is not successfully leading him/herself to earn the respect. The closer the score is to 60, the better job you believe your captain is doing of leading him/herself.

Vocal Leader Scoring

The total score for all 24 questions will give you your captain’s rating as a Vocal Leader.

Your captain’s total as a Vocal Leader should at least be 90 if not higher. Anything 89 and below your captain is not doing an adequate job of leading him/herself or others. The closer your captain is to 120, the more he/she is doing what is necessary to be an effective leader.
