Performance goal: Discover your True North and embark on your leadership journey.
The best leaders are not born that way. They may have natural leadership gifts, but they have to develop them fully to become outstanding leaders. The best, most authentic leaders use their natural abilities, as they prioritize self-knowledge. They recognize their shortcomings and work hard to overcome them. They lead with purpose, meaning, and values. They build enduring relationships with people. Others follow them because they know where they stand. When their principles are tested, they refuse to compromise. And they build their lives and careers based on what they are good at and what they like to do.
The following table summarizes the skills you will sharpen over the next 30 days. To keep yourself motivated, consider your personal goals and vision for success. What does leadership mean to you?
