Leadership Assessment Profile


Full Description
Leadership Assessment Profile


A Trump U Course

This Leadership Assessment Profile from Trump University Personal Assessments enables you to review your unique balance of strengths and weaknesses in the field of leadership. It can help you identify:
  • Your personal thinking style.
  • Areas of leadership development that need the most attention.
  • Specific opportunities for development.
  • Jobs that have the best potential for high career satisfaction.
The information contained in your Profile may clarify how you think about yourself as a leader, which, in turn, may be useful to you as you consider such key questions as:

  • Which aspect of business should I study next?
  • How can I leverage my strengths and compensate for my weaknesses?
  • How can I achieve an optimal balance between my work life and my personal life?
The dimensions measured by the Profile were developed and refined by Dr. John Lounsbury, a recognized expert in psychometrics and personality assessment. Dr. Lounsbury is the president of Resource Associates, Inc., a full professor in the department of psychology at the University of Tennessee, a fellow of the American Psychological Association, and a licensed industrial/organizational psychologist.

How To Best Use Your Profile

When reviewing your Profile, focus on your strengths. But remember that even the world’s most successful people have areas of weakness. They succeed because they understand their strengths and weaknesses, maximize their abilities and build skills in critical areas.

Your Profile shows general tendencies and cannot identify highly specific skills or personality traits. For this, more in-depth testing is possible. Your exact scores might vary according to your mood or energy level when taking the test, but our research shows the profiles are reliable over the long-term.

If there is any aspect of yourself you would like to change or develop, expect the changes to be gradual and to require persistent effort and learning. Use good educational resources, get help from mentors and above all be patient with yourself.

How the Profile Works

Like many assessments, Trump University’s Leadership Assessment asks a series of carefully designed questions that measure specific personality traits, or relatively enduring, personal attributes. The Leadership Assessment has been in nationwide use for more than 10 years. Thousands of people representing hundreds of organizations have taken it. The trait dimensions are well established, statistically reliable, and valid for employees in a variety of organizational settings.

Your Profile shows your personal results for 12 trait dimensions. Each dimension has two contrasting ends. Assuming you answered the questions candidly, your results reliably indicate your personal style on each dimension.

The 12 trait dimensions are:
  1. OPTIMISM
  2. EMOTIONAL RESILIENCE
  3. LOCUS OF CONTROL
  4. SOCIAL NETWORKING
  5. SELF-PROMOTION
  6. COMPETITIVENESS
  7. GOAL-SETTING
  8. WORK
  9. TOLERANCE FOR FINANCIAL
  10. ADAPTABILITY
  11. AUTONOMY
  12. PERSISTENCE
