Organizations: Theory and Application
The Leadership Development and Self-Efficacy Plan
a) What strengths identified were by the Strength Based Leadership (SBL) assessment?
Include a short description of each of the five strengths (the download from the Gallup
site that provides brief descriptions of each theme can be useful here) and examine how
the strength manifests in your work/life.
b) What strengths were revealed from other sources of information, such as the strength
bombardment (success story feedback) conducted in class, the emotional intelligence
assessment, and any other assessments you may have taken in this class as well as other
classes or different settings?
c) What strengths were identified by others in conducting your 360-Degree feedback?
For example, the emotional intelligence assessment includes a questionnaire to give to
others to rate you, or perhaps you asked a coworker to give you feedback about the
accuracy of the strength-based leadership results and so forth. Please identify the
individuals giving you the feedback; you do not need to use their names—simply state:
fellow student, friend, fieldwork supervisor and so forth (diverse, multiple sources of
feedback should be utilized).

d) What strengths do you believe you have that were not revealed through any of the
assessments or the 360-Degree feedback? Please briefly discuss why you think your
unidentified strengths were not represented through these assessments and feedback
endeavors.
e) Which of the strengths identified in a, b, and c (above) do you believe are not accurate
or are questionable?
f) What strengths do you believe you currently do not have, or believe are not strong, but
would like to develop (the identification can be based on the SBL text as well as your
own labels of strengths not identified in SBL)?
