Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire for Research Web Data Collection and Scoring
Since the Web system is an efficient way to collect multirater data, Mind Garden has made the system described above for consultant work available to researchers for data collection.

MLQ Leader's Notebook
This notebook helps leaders to expand their qualities of transformational leadership. Leaders develop a Leadership Development Plan (LDP) based on the results of MLQ reports. It contains developmental behaviors for each MLQ scale and item. Leadership is examined with respect to its relevance to work as well as being examined in the broader context of the life space of the leader. Since so many behaviors are provided, this is best used by a consultant who selects pages to reproduce based on the leader's development goals.

Organizational Description Questionnaire for Research
The Organizational Description Questionnaire (ODQ) is a brief twenty-eight item questionnaire and resulting report which help members of an organization explore the relationship between leadership style and their organizational culture. Measures how often each member of the organization perceives the culture of their unit, department, or organization, to be using transformational or transactional leadership styles. Using transformational and transactional leadership behaviors, the ODQ places the organization on a nine point scale spanning cultures such as Bureaucratic, Coasting and Highly Developed.
