for the four main scales, in a very good range,and from .70 to .80 for the nine subscales. For test-retest reliability, the Pearson correlations runfrom .78 to .92 for the scales and the subscales.2With regard to validity, a concurrent validity study with 1,050 participants, who took both theKGI measurement and the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator assessment, produced very significantcorrelations between the two instruments' scales, which followed the theoretical designs of themeasurements. In a smaller concurrent validity study with the KGI measurement and theFundamental Interpersonal Relations Orientation-B (FIRO-B) assessment, again there weresignificant correlations between the two sets of scales, as would be expected based on theirtheoretical
the individual, leadership curriculaoften utilizes one or more instruments, such as MBTI, True Colors, or DISC, to provide studentswith insights to their own personality and/or behaviors in groups or teams. Recently, the KleinGroup Instrument for Effective Leadership and Participation in Teams (KGI)®, which providesan individual with a set of skills to promote social growth, has shown initial success withengineering students.12 A new assessment tool to “measure leadership, change, and synthesisabilities” has been proposed in the work of Ahn, B., Cox, M.F., London, J., Cekic, O., and Zhu,J.13 Developed on a holistic set of leadership skills, their instrument, the Personal Leadershipprofile, “helps each student to focus on what courses will be

. This is a very important point to emphasize, especially for engineeringstudents who are drawn to quantitative data and who tend to be less comfortable with qualitativedata and analyses. Hence, this “set up” for a discussion on analyzing the stories they receivedfrom their respondents is critical to a successful implementation of this exercise. Otherwise,students will take the “path of least resistance” and base most of their paper on the quantitativeassessments described below.When I introduce this phase, I spend a few minutes describing how strengths are holisticallydefined in this exercise (summarized on a PowerPoint) 16. Strengths are an integration of our (a)self-identities, which is how we express ourselves in a given situation, (b
