Awareness Is A Must For Growth

At PeopleTek, our COMPASS© is the foundation for increasing levels of effectiveness for relationships and leadership skills and abilities.

Too often we don’t take or make the time to self-assess our perceptions for our own key skills and behaviors. It’s important that we do!

Rate the following 13 skills using a scale of 1-10 (1 is poor / 10 superb):

1. How Aware are you of your strengths and how your skills and behaviors are perceived?

2. How Aware are you of others’ skills, behaviors, and wants?

3. Magic Dust™ – do you know and leverage your strengths?

4. Vision/Mission/Goals – do all your behaviors support them?

5. Communication – is it clear and accurately interpreted?

6. Clarity – are roles, responsibilities, and desired results clearly shared?

7. Accountability – do you “own up” as needed? (and encourage others to do the same)?

8. Conflict- do you address and manage conflict effectively?

9. Influence – are you confident and do you have the ability to influence others?

10. Relationships – do you invest in building and maintaining lasting relationships?

11. Feedback – are you receptive to feedback and do you provide healthy feedback?

12. Inspiration – do you empower, encourage, and stretch others?

13. Continual learning – are you committed to improvement and accept and lead through change?

Next steps:

• Consider the skills rated 8-10 as strengths
• Next, pick 3 with scores <8 that you are committed to developing
• Add them to your development plan
• Determine who/what can help you grow
• Solidify next steps and timings
  
  

We encourage you to utilize this resource to help with both personal and professional growth.
