DECA Leadership Styles

Chapter Strategy
Leadership

Begin your rise as an emerging leader by understanding what it’s like to be led by you! The DECA Leadership Styles assessment will help you identify your sweet spots and blind spots as a DECA leader. Having an awareness of your DECA Leadership Style will enable you to communicate better, assess others’ needs and forge productive relationships. A leader’s ability to identify these differences and quickly adapt to address individual needs can be the difference between leadership success and failure.
