Leadership Assessment Test

This assessment is based on Dr. Stephan R Covey's
definition of leader which I liked the most. 
Use your immediate instinct to select the best 
answer without spending time on thinking if you 
want to be honest to yourself.

Once you assess your degree of leadership and find
where you stand on the manager-to-leader ladder,
adjust the answers to get to 100% and see where you
missed to hit. Note that this is what I liked and
the qualities may vary based on one's perspective 
of leadership. I take Gandhi as the leader and Hitler
may be the leader for you.

And please help me and others by casting
your vote in the poll to the right of this assessment.
I welcome your suggestions.

Thank you and have fun -  Sridhar
