Chapter 1 Quiz

This quiz addresses the following Module 1 Objectives:

Learners will:

• Develop an understanding of the meaning of technical leadership.
• Identify the five fundamental changes in leadership that characterize the paradigm shift from a traditional to a new leader.
• Recognize the primary differences between leadership and management.
• Identify the primary reasons (aka fatal flaws) for leadership derailment
• Characterize the leadership characteristics and potential in themselves and others.

A practice quiz is designed to be a learning tool.  It can be classified as more of a learning activity than a quiz.  This activity has been set up to allow the learner 4 attempts to work through the questions.  I recommend you read the chapter before making your first attempt at the quiz and use the activity in the following manner. 

• Attempt 1- take the quiz without any outside resources (textbook or notes).  Upon completion any questions answered incorrectly will have a response from the instructor directing you to the page of the textbook the question references.  Take that page reference and read through the text highlighting the content that is associated with the question.
• Attempt 2 - take the quiz open book and open note, utilize all resources available.  Upon completion focus on the questions you answered incorrectly. 
• Attempt 3 - Before taking the quiz read through your notes and revisit the areas that you have highlighted in your textbook.  Take the quiz without any outside resources.  By this point in the learning process you should become very confident in your knowledge of the content and objectives for this module. 
• Attempt 4 - Take the quiz without any outside resources.

If you come across a discrepancy between the book, the question, or any of the responses provided please contact your instructor for clarification.
