LEADERSHIP ASSESSMENT EXAMPLEFront Side
Cadet Devaney performed satisfactorily on as SL
during CWST. He ensured all critical information
was passed to squad members and all timelines and
tasks met. On one occasion, issued conflicting
guidance to SMs, resulting in duplication of
effort finally resolved after prompting.
Appearance and bearing were adequate. Noted
during Land Nav assisting other cadets in the use
of their compasses. Appears comfortable when
addressing superiors and readily accepts
constructive criticism. Mission Accomplished to
standard.
MA Genuinely seeks self-improvement candid in
his self-assessment CO Attentive during orders
