REFLECTED MEASURE OF INTRAPERSONAL AND INTERPERSONAL SKILLS

Note to the MGTC90 student:

This questionnaire helps you obtain information about your interpersonal and intrapersonal skills from different kinds of people. Such information will enable you to gain accurate self awareness. This is the same questionnaire you completed in the self-assessment part of your interpersonal and intrapersonal skills.

For the Self Awareness class session, give it to the person listed in 1) below. For your first assignment you will also give it to people listed in (2) and (3)

1. A friend/family member/life partner -- someone who knows you in personal situations;

2. A colleague/supervisor/subordinate -- someone who you did professional work with, in school or in a volunteer position or in a paid/unpaid work position.

3. Anew acquaintance you met and interacted with in this course-- someone you did a role play exercise with in this course.

When giving it to the persons above, ask them to complete the questionnaire with you in mind. Tell this person that you will use it to develop your leadership skills and that it is part of your coursework in MGTC90 and that it is very important that they answer it as honestly as possible. Assure them that only you will be able to see their response.

Fill in your name in the blanks provided on the top of page 2 of this document before giving it to the person you choose.

Only give pages 2 - 4 to the person who will rate you.

After the person you choose completes this questionnaire, you can compare your assessment of your interpersonal and intrapersonal skills with that person’s assessment of your interpersonal and intrapersonal skills.
