Abstract
A mailed questionnaire was used by faculty members of Ohio State University Extension to determine the perceived effectiveness of the Ohio 4-H Teen Community Leadership College (TCLC) on participants. The study measured eleven dimensions of leadership including oral communication, leadership, initiative, planning/organizing, decision-making/judgment, behavioral flexibility, assertiveness, objectivity, perception, sensitivity, and collaborativeness. The Ohio 4-H TCLC graduates' perception of their leadership skills after completing the program was significantly higher than their perception before participation. The highest mean scores were on the dimensions of perception and collaborativeness and the lowest mean scores were on the dimensions of initiative, assertiveness and objectivity.
