Your Leadership Legacy: Success???
In A Leader’s Legacy, James M. Kouzes and Barry Z. Posner state, “what’s crucial is that you become more self-aware–and self-awareness is a predictor of success in leadership.” So being self-aware, knowing your own strengths and developmental areas is directly related to how successful you will be.
Taken a step further, this translates to you, leader, consciously complimenting your own strengths with others’ talents. This support the case for the importance of teams, where each person contributes to the solution by sharing his/her unique strengths.
Take a moment to write down your top ten strengths and your top ten developmental opportunities.
- Are you leveraging your strengths?
- How are you making up for your weaker areas?
- Who fills in the gaps?
- Where can you increase success by bringing others into the mix?
