The questionnaire was available through the website of the Australia-based Centre for Leadership for Women from August 1, 2000 to May 1, 2002 and was filled out by 193 individuals

The following conclusions were drawn from its results:

• "The Leadership Questionnaire clearly demonstrated that in general, most women believe that the potential to be a leader is developed in oneself.
• Leadership is brought into focus through one’s life experiences and incrementally develops in time.
• Most women see developing themselves and helping others to develop, as their vision.
• Empowering others to achieve their vision and potential emerges as the main definition of leadership. Leadership is defined in the context of the ‘Self’ helping ‘Another’.
• The ways in which the leader empowers others, the avenues used such as collaboration, inspiration and facilitation are seen to dominate the definition of leadership.
• In empowering others, the leader also reaches one’s potential as they achieve their vision and their attributes are brought into play and enhanced.
• Women have a need for assistance from those who have achieved their visions.
• Yet, it has been found that on the whole, women who have achieved leadership positions do not help others to do the same. Although, it must be recognised that there are women who do help other women become leaders, the percentage of women in this category is not very large.
• It is in the workplace that most women see themselves as leaders.
• Furthermore, it is in the workplace where most women want to be leaders.
• If leadership is to be encouraged in workplaces, education and training, as well as, formal and informal support from people who have achieved leadership are seen to be vitally necessary in the workplace.
• Family and Community are the other two significant domains in which women want to become a leader."
