The Blake Mouton leadership assessment plots the degree of task orientation versus people orientation for a person. The grid helps individuals in identifying different combinations of leadership styles thus managing their team members, depending on their skill and will. This model was developed in the early 1960s by management theorists Robert Blake and Jane Mouton.
The model is based on two behavioural dimensions:
- People Orientation: When a leader is oriented toward the development of their team members and has genuine interest in their needs and interests to accomplish goals.
- Task Orientation: When a leader is oriented toward results, efficiency and concrete objectives in accomplishing goals.
Below is a list of statements about leadership behaviour. Read each one carefully, then, using the following scale, decide the extent to which it applies to you. For best results, answer as truthfully as possible.

This was an interesting exercise. I completely agree with the results that I have got. I have taken Belbin’s leadership style test. But I find this to be more accurate. Thanks for sharing this .
