About
This quiz focuses on the Winning Colors® behavioral assessment system, specifically examining the four primary behavioral categories: Planners, Builders, Relaters, and Adventurers. Designed for high school students in grades 9-12, this assessment evaluates students' understanding of personality types, communication styles, and leadership applications within diverse group settings. The core concepts require students to recognize behavioral characteristics, apply power words for effective communication, analyze interpersonal dynamics, and problem-solve leadership challenges using behavioral insights. Students must demonstrate comprehension of how different personality types interact, the importance of adapting communication styles to match others' preferences, and practical applications of behavioral theory in military and civilian leadership contexts. The quiz demands higher-order thinking skills as students analyze scenarios, evaluate communication strategies, and synthesize behavioral concepts to resolve interpersonal conflicts. Created by Harvey Craig, a Specialty teacher in the US who teaches grade 9. This quiz serves as an excellent assessment tool for JROTC programs focusing on leadership development and interpersonal communication skills. Teachers can deploy this quiz as a summative assessment following instruction on the Winning Colors® system, use it for review sessions before leadership exercises, or assign it as homework to reinforce behavioral concepts. The scenario-based questions make it particularly valuable for formative assessment, allowing instructors to gauge students' ability to apply theoretical knowledge to practical leadership situations. This assessment aligns with military science education standards that emphasize character development, leadership principles, and effective communication in diverse environments, supporting the broader JROTC mission of developing citizenship and leadership competencies in high school students.

You are a Cadet platoon sergeant. Cadet Cleveland is the squad leader of a very diverse squad. Cadet Cleveland is usually a very effective communicator, but he is getting frustrated because he always has to repeat instructions several times before his whole squad understands.
What should you do to help him understand why he has to explain more than once, and what he can do to improve understanding by his diverse squad?
Tell him that sometimes leaders have to explain themselves more than once, even with squads that are not too diverse.
Tell him that since he has a very diverse squad, he may always have to explain things more than once, but to pay attention for words that effectively get his message across, and to use them more often.
Have him re-evaluate his own comfort zone and natural behaviors because they are probably different from what he first thought.
Give him a list of power words to randomly use when he gives instructions so that at least some of his Cadets will understand.

Cadets Franklin and Smith have been best friends since they were five years old. After they determined their Winning Colors® preferences, it seemed like they had very little in common. Cadet Franklin was strong in planning and relating behaviors, and Cadet Smith was strong as a builder and adventurer. Both of them realized that they did work better with others at times, and their friendship began to fall apart.
"Behaviors work in many ways, and if you tried to appreciate the differences, you would probably find that they complement each other, just like you."
Nothing. Sometimes people just outgrow friendships.
"This exercise was to help increase communication within a diverse society. It doesn't have anything to do with friendship, so you should still be friends."
Nothing. They probably shouldn't have been friends in the first place because their preferences were different.
