Chapter 16 – Team Leadership Questionnaire (TLQ)

The Team Leadership Excellence and Collaborative Team Leader surveys are designed as diagnostic tools to help teams sort through the complex problems confronting them and to pinpoint areas for action taking. The Team Excellence and Collaborative Team Leader Questionnaire provided in this exercise contains sample questions from the two instruments. The first seven questions are taken from the Team Excellence Survey and are designed to measure a team’s health in terms of the criteria of team excellence (goal, structure, team members, commitment, climate, standards, and external support). Leadership is measured by the next six questions, taken from the Collaborative Team Leader Survey and are designed to assess the effectiveness of the leader in goal focusing, ensuring a collaborative climate, building confidence, demonstrating know-how, setting priorities, and managing performance. All of these team and leadership factors have been found to relate to team effectiveness. Instructions: As you fill out the sample questionnaire, think about a group or team to which you belong as a member or as the leader. Indicate whether you feel each statement is true or not true of your team, using the scale provided. The items that you score 1 or 2 (False or More false than true) are the areas of team weakness from your perspective. Upon completion of the Team Leadership Questionnaire please address the following points in your 1 page support summary document:

– According to your assessment of your team, what do your scores suggest about your team’s effectiveness?

o Where are your team’s strengths? o Where are your team’s weaknesses?

– According to your assessment of the team’s leader, what do your scores suggest about the leader’s effectiveness?
