week 6

What makes great leaders great? Every leader is different, of course, but one area of commonality is the leadership philosophy that great leaders develop and practice. A leadership philosophy is basically an attitude held by leaders that acts as a guiding principle for their behavior. While formal theories on leadership continue to evolve over time, great leaders seem to adhere to an overarching philosophy that steers their actions.

What is your leadership philosophy? In this Assignment, you will explore what guides your own leadership.

To Prepare:

· Identify two to three scholarly resources, in addition to this Module’s readings, that evaluate the impact of leadership behaviors in creating healthy work environments.

· Reflect on the leadership behaviors presented in the three resources that you selected for review.

· Reflect on your results of the CliftonStrengths Assessment*, and consider how the results relate to your leadership traits.

*not required to submit CliftonStrengths Assessment

The Assignment (2-3 pages):

Personal Leadership Philosophies

Develop and submit a personal leadership philosophy that reflects what you think are characteristics of a good leader. Use the scholarly resources on leadership you selected to support your philosophy statement. Your personal leadership philosophy should include the following:

· A description of your core values.

· A personal mission and vision statement.

· An analysis of your CliftonStrengths Assessment summarizing the results of your profile

· A description of two key behaviors that you wish to strengthen.

· A development plan that explains how you plan to improve upon the two key behaviors you selected and an explanation of how you plan to achieve your personal vision. Be specific and provide examples.

· Be sure to incorporate your colleagues’ feedback on your CliftonStrengths Assessment from this Module’s Discussion 2.

and for my peer feedback this is what someone responded to me:

In reading your post, I see your results are similar to my self-assessment results. As you mentioned, I also have quite a few friends I have known most of my life. I enjoy meeting new people as well and have added a couple of new people to my circle. However, I find that people these days are not as genuine as my long-time friends.  

Like you, I enjoy learning and researching various random topics. Learning about the past, how things happened, and the trials we have gone through as a human race is interesting to me. 

What I have discovered is that much of history has been rewritten or even hidden. However, and fortunately, many secrets were written in very old publications, in times such as the early 1800s and before. Those are great finds when you can get a hold of republished books. 

As with you, I am an inclusive person. I can empathize with people’s situations and seek to comfort or include them if they are a loner or stand-offish. These are skills that we both possess as known qualities of a leader. It signifies that we can manage a team and include all followers (Rath, 2007).

Part of being a great leader is how one relates to people; to mentor, encourage, motivate and affect them positively (Quesado et al., 2022). Inclusiveness is vital when holding a leadership role in a team/organization (Broome & Marshall, 2021).
