Executive Leadership: Strengths, Weaknesses, Goals...OH MY!

The Atlanta Food Rave, August 2010

 After completing the Leadership Skills Assessment for the Executive Leadership class, I discovered that while I am highly effective in my leadership ability, I have areas that need improvement.  I also have a couple areas, such as attitude and people skills, where I can focus a little more energy to reach my highest potential.  Comparing my current leadership ability to those mentioned in Maxwell’s Developing the Leader Within You, I am well on my way to reaching what he calls “people development.”  On this one-year quest to become an influential leader, I remembered to stay focused and not neglect any skills, while trying to perfect others.

Completing this program has definitely allowed me to work on my weaknesses addressed last year.  I have created a better vision for myself and my company, as well as improving on self discipline to focus my energy on progression.

In the beginning of the program, I came up with a couple organizations that I wanted to work with, but due to my community involvement and business development, I decided to focus on personal growth and relationship building.  I have been staying pretty active in the Atlanta PR community and I even joined the ATLPRPros group!
