My Only High Scores During My Student Leadership Practices

510 Words3 Pages

Strengths
According to my range of scores during this student leadership practices inventory, ‘modeling the way’ was my only high score putting me at a 21.5/peer-evaluation and a 25/self-evaluation. I thought that I lead by example more and created a path for others to follow like a role-model would, but peers suggest that I need to expand this leadership behavior although they did give me a moderate score average. There is still definite room for improvement.
I did rank a close second when it concerned ‘encouraging the heart’ with a moderate score ranging from 30-60th percentile from myself and peers. I was ranked higher from my peers in this category suggesting that I tend to do well encouraging others in work efforts, but my view was that …show more content…

How can I score high in one area and not the other? This is discussed in greater detail in my action-planning worksheet for ‘enabling others to act.’ ‘Inspiring a shared vision’ was not a strong leadership behavior that I personify. I have a tendency to be quite selfish sometimes and this is never a good trait to have in a multicultural work environment, especially as a leader. The score that I gave myself in this department was lower than my peers review, suggesting that I am sometimes harder on myself than others. I always thought that I was pretty vocal in regards to how I feel about actions or procedures at work, and I have never been afraid to have a sit-down with superiors to be heard. This score indicates to me that I need to start treating subordinates in the same manner as superiors, maybe this will open up dialogue and help to inspire a shared vision among all involved in the process. My ‘challenging the process’ scores were higher by peers than myself and put me in the low 20th percentile to the 35th percentile. This is probably due to the fact that I have a bad habit of thinking that my ideas of correction or direction are more appropriate than others’ suggestions. This is not a good leadership behavior to possess, since it could drive people away from me rather than creating unity

    This may have been a reflection of my lack of confidence, and where I subconsciously believe that I need to learn, grow and strengthen my skills as a leader. What I learned from others is that people gravitate to individuals who are familiar to them, and whom they’re comfortable with. I also observed that my longstanding relationships with many of my fellow colleagues might have dictated a neutral response from them. Furthermore, I learned that many people have different styles of communication, as well as various patterns of behavior. What I will apply to skillful leadership from this exercise is to try not to judge others, attempt to observe, communicate and be open-minded and supportive.

This resonated with me because I have felt unappreciated before and I d o not want my subordinates to think what they are doing is not important or appreciated. Other tools I will use to try different leadership approaches will include the DiSC and MBTI survey.

I am aware that I have high work standard, high motivation, enjoy building a partnership, driving execution and innovation to deliver my commitment. However, I should better delegate the task and not to worry too much about the outcomes/perfection, which could result in giving too much pressure to my team.
