It is often necessary to make

decisions without consulting
others due to time pressures
upon the task at hand.
Teams operate best within a
clear and structured framework
of procedures.
The best decision will be the one
with the largest consensus.
People will come up with the best
working methods when given
minimal instruction.
Friends repeatedly come to me
for advice and support, and I
generously give it.
Friends have learnt to not
question my judgement, as I
rarely back down when I am truly
passionate about something.
If everyone is forced to perform
the same task in the same way.
The efficiencies gained outweigh
the costs.
I receive friends approval before
making changes in my life.
I have learnt that people will
never fail to positively surprise
you if you leave them alone.
I consult a variety of people
when making decisions, but they
tend to agree with my original
idea anyway.
Half of people are intrinsically
hard working, but the other half
need to be pushed into
completing work to a high
enough standard.
Over time, we can continue to
build upon and add to ways of
doing things, which will make life
easier.
Friends constantly challenge my
ideas and strategies because
they know they are welcome

when they do so.

I can say with 100% conviction
that I do not micromanage.
People see me as a leader, not a
manager.
Leadership is about making the
right decisions, at the right time,
and ensuring the workforce
follow through with that decision
with effectiveness.
Cost savings can be made if
everybody does exactly what
theyre told, and dont try to
over-engineer solutions.
I try to delegate as many tasks
as possible in their complete
entirety.
I let friends get back to me when
they decide to, rather than
getting in touch myself.
I feel responsible for my friends,
and I look after them accordingly.

I do somewhat agree with the results. I am a leader that likes to take

control but I also think its very important to include the members on the
team. I believe that having other members on the team involved in ideas,
tasks, decisions ect is important. I like to listen to what other members
put out eiether if I agree or disagree. I believe that a team is a family so
everyone deserves the same respect.
I like to have the entire team contributing to the team because I believe that
everyone has a skill that can be valueable to a task, even when that task at
hand itnt in their category of expertise. I am a person who is a perfectionist
so I like things to be done to the best of their capability. I am also a very
organized person so i like to have everything managed and organized. I
want my members to feel safe, secure, happy, motivated and in control.
Even though I may be the leader I want my members to feel like that they
can take control and be charge of a situation as well as me.
