Work harder on yourself than you do on your job.<\/em>
\n\u2014Jim Rohn, Author, motivational speaker<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Hopefully as a leader you are committed to being a continual learner.\u00a0 You\u2019ve grown over the years and are in a leadership role but what does that mean? There are numerous ways to define Leadership.\u00a0 Part of what PeopleTek promotes is:<\/strong><\/p>\n

We believe everyone is a leader, regardless of title or reporting structures since we all have the ability to INFLUENCE others. <\/em><\/p>\n

Strong and effective Leaders take others where they\u2019ve never gone before and wouldn\u2019t go by themselves.<\/em><\/p>\n

And, we also believe effective leaders are continual learners.<\/em><\/p>\n

Author and motivational speaker Jim Rohn shares the need to commit to self-development and identifies 7 “must have” leadership traits:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Learn to be strong but not impolite<\/li>\n
  2. Learn to be kind but not weak<\/li>\n
  3. Learn to be bold but not a bully<\/li>\n
  4. Learn to be humble but not timid<\/li>\n
  5. Learn to be proud but not arrogant<\/li>\n
  6. Learn to develop humor without folly<\/li>\n
  7. Learn to deal in realities<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    What were your thoughts when you read through the list? How many have you mastered?\u00a0 Which could you further develop?<\/p>\n

    Did any names come to mind (colleagues\/clients\/bosses) where you thought these traits were either consistently displayed or severely lacking?<\/p>\n

    It\u2019s the beginning of a new year and the perfect time to establish goals and commit to self development. \u00a0A simple start is to pick two areas:
    \n– A strength you already have (how can it be further
    \ndeveloped?)
    \n– An “opportunity” to strengthen (which from the list
    \nleft you feeling uneasy?)<\/p>\n

    Are you still learning? Be a life-long learner!\u00a0 Having the desire to continually grow your wisdom, knowledge and skill-set prevents stagnation and increases the likelihood of success.<\/p>\n

    \n

    Learning is not a one-time event or a periodic luxury. Great leaders in great companies recognize that the ability to constantly learn, innovate, and improve is vital to their success.<\/em> \u2013 Amy Edmondson<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
