Answer 1

My leadership philosophy is based on my personal life experiences, successes, observations, and failures. I view leadership as a journey taken together by leaders and followers to the same destination. Great leaders establish a plan, a map to help them organize and ensure they have an appropriate and effective team in place, clearly communicate the plan to and lead their followers to the destination. A great leader uses knowledge, skills and relationships to encourage, and mentor others in the achievement of the same type of goals. Effective leaders define their visions and missions, and they continuously communicate with followers or supervisors the objectives and milestones required to achieve success.

To lead the mission to a healthy conclusion, a leader establish priorities and gain the talents, creativity, and energy of his followers, and empower them to rise to and occasionally beyond their previously assumed potential. Nowadays, the business environment of rapid improvements, particularly in technology and marketing, successful leaders must be flexible as they adapt to the numerous changes encountered in a mingle world.

Here is a graphical representation of the Personal Leadership Development Program:

I am an independent human resources consultant and my approaches to leadership are necessarily based on collaboration and consultation. I engage subcontracted consultants with selected skill sets as may be required to fulfill my commitments to my clients. As the leader of any project team or group, I am ultimately responsible for everything under my authority. At the same given time, to function as an effective resource for my clients, I must actively consider and pursue the input of clients and client stakeholders in offering solutions for business objectives.

My core personal and leadership values include:

• Integrity and trustworthiness
• Competency
• responsibility, and accountability
• Respect, appreciation, and
• advocacy for others
• Community contribution and involvement
• Expansive gratitude

I try to live in accordance with my personal values in everything I do, everything I say, and everything that I am each day. My values are carried with me and shade my interactions with family, with friends, with colleagues, with clients, with subordinates, and within my community. I have found that there are many similarities and replications of generated ideas offered by experts and consultants too large to enumerate. In this plan, I have focused on those aspects of leadership that I believe most require development to enable my success, as well as those which will be important in future career changes.
