This was a very interesting questionaire for me because I would label myself as a team leader from the four differing sections. I would say this because I enjoy working with others and can still focus on the task at hand and work to accomplish it to the best of my abilities.
After I took this quiz, it appears that I was correct and did indeed get labeled as a team leader. As I was saying I mostly expected that because as much a hard worker as I am, I can't help but worry about others. In this realization I decided I am a large percentage of a people person. On the other hand when given a task I prioritize and organize the most suitable path to finish it. I enjoy getting places on time and fulfilling tasks but I also enjoy other coworkers and company while working. I believe to have a good blend of both team leader and authoritarian to combine both a sincerity with others, yet the ability to manage and accomplish.

Blake and Mouton's Managerial Grid
First off, I will link the Blake and Mouton's Managerial Grid leadership questionnaire for those who couldn't find it in the old post easily.
I considered myself to be a task oriented person because I tend to be an introvert in my personality at first until I really get to know people. Therefore, if the task is laid out before me I would just as soon get it done the way I feel it needs to.
However, the managerial grid had me slightly over in the team leader section of the matrix grid. This makes sense to me now because I have had more practice and time to develop these styles of managing style in the way I function by the various parts of life. I am highly involved with the Baptist Collegiate Ministry where I took on the roles as President and Missions Coordinator for the past couple years, I have worked jobs in the past several summers that have put me in charge of a team below me, and many leadership theories and character building activities in the classes I have had on APSU's campus stresses team management skills. I think my flexibility and willingness to lead a team has brought this end of the spectrum up on my managerial grid in the past several years, but I was split even down the middle when I added up the scores of "people" and "task."
