I was wondering what questions are best to ask participants when measuring Leadership and its effectiveness or relationship with a certain variable like hotel performance?

Hi Megan
It depends on what research problem you're trying to tackle. Is 'leadership effectiveness' measured by organisational success or individual perception? Also, which leadership model are you adopting for your analysis?
All the best!

We have been finding/assessing "emergent leaders" in organizations using social/organizational network analysis for several decades. Please read this this technical report here on RG that describes some of this work and shows a "real life" example.

We ( www.leadershapeglobal.com ) have found that the most important aspects for good leadership are increased awareness, emotional intelligence through improved behaviours, using a range of leadership styles depending on the situation, bringing ones own values to full consciousness in everything we do, operating beyond our own ego and understanding the five brain processes of decision making. And finally, become knowledgable about systems thinking. You can find out more abt this in our book "Leading Beyond the Ego" but as a starter you can read the attached file and download our FREE phone app, "LeaderShaper" which is self assessment around emotional intelligence and leadership styles (based on our more sophisticated 360 tool, LEIPA.
Measuring leadership can be a complex and multi-faceted process. While there is no definitive set of questions that can be used to measure leadership, there are several key areas that can be assessed to gain insight into a leader's effectiveness. Here are some questions that can be useful in measuring leadership:
- Does the leader have a clear and compelling vision for the organization?
- Has the leader developed a sound and realistic strategy to achieve the vision?
- Does the leader communicate the vision and strategy effectively to team members?
- Does the leader make informed and effective decisions?
- Does the leader consider multiple perspectives and seek input from team members before making decisions?
- Does the leader take responsibility for their decisions and learn from mistakes?
- Does the leader communicate effectively with team members, stakeholders, and other key individuals?
- Does the leader actively listen to feedback and concerns from team members?
- Does the leader provide clear and constructive feedback to team members?
- Does the leader demonstrate emotional intelligence, such as empathy, self-awareness, and self-regulation?
- Does the leader manage their emotions effectively and remain calm under pressure?
- Does the leader inspire and motivate team members through positive interactions?
- Does the leader set clear expectations for team members and provide regular feedback on performance?
- Does the leader recognize and reward high-performing team members?
- Does the leader take appropriate action to address underperformance or other issues?
These questions are just a starting point for measuring leadership, and other factors may also be relevant depending on the specific context and goals of the assessment. Ultimately, measuring leadership requires a comprehensive approach that considers multiple dimensions of leadership effectiveness.
In addition, there are several leadership assessment questions that can help you determine whether you’re a good leader. These include:
- What motivates you as a leader?
- What are your strengths as a leader?
- What are your weaknesses as a leader?
- How do you handle conflict?
- How do you communicate with your team?
- How do you handle stress?
- How do you handle change?
- How do you motivate your team?
- How do you measure success?
There are many questions that can be used to measure leadership. Here are some examples:
- How are you becoming dispensable?
- How are you making it safe for teammates to speak truth to power?
- How are you expanding organizational capacity?
- How are you learning?
- How are you making yourself accountable to those you serve?
- How are you actively seeking feedback?
- How are you making others feel powerful?
