Leadership Development for All Employees

Sources of Learning Leadership

People develop leadership skills through experiences, interacting with others, as well as through formal learning. Some studies place experience as high as 70% of how a leader learns (Lombardo & Eichinger, 1996; Casebow & Ferguson, 2010).

Developing Your Leadership Skills

Below are some suggestions for developing your leadership. Use 深夜福利站's development plan template to create your plan.

1. Review 深夜福利站's Leadership Competencies and identify areas where you have strength, and areas where you wish to grow.

2. Ask colleagues, mentors, and formal leaders for feedback, guidance and suggestions about your career development.

3. Identify how you can gain leadership expertise. People learn to be a leader primarily through experiences, working with others, and formal learning:

Experience

Seek out opportunities to lead or co-lead work groups, teams, committees, or projects within 深夜福利站 or with an external association or volunteer group. These can provide great learning and insight about working with others, leading change, and whether you like this type of work.

Social

Observe those you work with and learn from them. Talk to them about their leadership work and what they have learned.

Formal

Seek formal leadership learning opportunities.

  • Consider topics that provide insight about working with others such as emotional intelligence, communication skills, conflict, and leading teams. Topics such as project leadership, and leading change and innovation are also helpful.
  • Review books, articles, videos, or other on-line resources on leadership topics.
  • Investigate what professional allowances or 深夜福利站 Educational Assistance funding is available to you.
  • Consider taking one or more courses in the program for 深夜福利站 employees, enrolling in the or other workshop.
