Abstract: It is essential that universities foster the development of leadership competences among students oriented towards social responsibility in their future professions, enabling them to make a positive contribution to the fulfilment of others and the betterment of society. Based on research into the principal competences associated with leadership, the construct leadership for the common good was developed consisting of a series of personal competences revealed in action and exemplifying the best of oneself, influencing and inspiring others to similar actions and behaviours. This article describes the design and validation process of an instrument to measure the acquisition of these competences among university students, with the aim of facilitating the development of effective teaching strategies and programs. The results indicate that the COMPLIZ questionnaire, with a unitary, bidimensional structure, is an effective and valid instrument for the measurement of competences associated with leadership for the common good.
