Student Leadership Practices Inventory This short paper will concentrate on the results of the Student Leadership Practices Inventory (SLPI) from Dr. Vito’s leadership class. The SLPI was first completed by myself and was then sent out to three of my leaders and three of my subordinates. According to Dr. Vito, the following are the mean scores of prior SPI classes: Model the Way: 23.43, Inspire a Shared Vision: 22.86, Challenge the Process: 23.30, Enable Others to Act: 24.55, Encourage the Heart: 23.59. Out of the six surveys sent out, five people responded for a 83.3% return. I was quite surprised by the answers from the observers.

I will work to make sure their efforts are recognized and get more involved in their schools. When I took the SLPI survey I did not know or understand the five categories or how the survey would be use. To get the most out of the survey one must answer the questions honestly. I plan on taking the information I learned about my leadership practices and make some changes when I return to work. This experience has taught me that leadership is not something that is in one’s genes, rather something that can be learned and grown from their experiences. I will work hard to grow my experiences and skills so I can be the best leader I can be for my
