Clients often want to improve their confidence. Confidence tend to come from our belief in our knowledge, skills and experience in a specific context. This questionnaire will help you reflect on your leadership knowledge, skills and experience. The aim is for you to reflect on your beliefs about your leadership capability and identify the areas you would most like to focus your development.

The questions are listed under 3 categories:

Self leadership
