Successful leaders are able to bring out the best in their employees and inspire them to achieve goals that they did not believe were possible. Leaders constantly develop their skills to improve their own performance and the performance of their staff. Rate your skills on the following five leadership attributes using a scale of 1 (weak) to 5 (exceptional). Use your ratings to create a leadership development plan for yourself. I create a team vision and help my employees set objectives to achieve the goal. I delegate authority to my staff and trust their judgment in getting the work done. I communicate clear expectations and give specific feedback to employees on their performance. I spend time building relationships with my staff and actively listen to them. I am guided by my values and always act with integrity, being honest and fair to everyone. Work on creating a leadership development plan for yourself this week!
