Leadership is not a one-size-fits-all destination. Whether you’re just starting out or have decades of experience, understanding where you are in your leadership evolution is key to growing into the leader you want to become.
Not sure where you are in your leadership journey? Or too busy to stop and ask? You’re not alone.
Which leader are you right now?
Emerging - You’re at the beginning of your leadership journey, and that’s okay! You’re likely finding your footing, learning the ropes, and figuring out what kind of leader you want to be.
Developing - You’ve made progress and have a solid foundation, but there’s still room to grow. You’re comfortable in your role, but you’re still navigating the complexities of leadership, especially when it comes to delegating tasks or handling tough decisions.
Advanced - You’ve honed your leadership skills, and it shows. You lead with confidence, communicate clearly, and motivate your team effectively. You’re a strong decision-maker who understands the bigger picture and keeps your team focused on achieving goals.
Visionary - You’re at the top of your leadership game. You’ve mastered the technical aspects of leadership and have learned how to inspire and empower others. You’re strategic, innovative, and future-focused, constantly looking for ways to grow the business and the people around you.
No matter where you are in your leadership journey, remember that your growth as a leader is a continuous process of learning. No one starts out at the peak. Leaders that people love to follow are skilled at listening, motivating, problem solving, decision making, and moving toward goals. They got there by being open to looking at their opportunities for self-improvement and acting on them.
