Statement-5.pptxVision:
To help businesses and people around the world reach their full potential
Create such product and services which make life easier for people
Create a Sustainable world not only for human beings but for all species (Martin, 2016)
Having the right vision ensures that organization is on the right path. Vision is conceived by leaders and in a way, leaders define that what an organization is and what it will achieve. The founder define one vision which is further elaborated by the leadership who come up after hi. If I were to give a chance to lead an organization like Microsoft, my vision will be to help people and make their life easier through employing technology advancements. The world does not only belong to human beings. It is home of every specie alive, so I will lead my organization in creating sustainable world for this generation and for generations to come (Martin, 2016)

Values:
Creating a dynamic work environment open to challenges and changing market trends
Create a diverse workforce of passionate and energetic team embers who has an appetite of challenging job
Creating a common shared goal of achieving more an more for organization
Value sin an organization originate from the mind of top leadership, the values which the leader believes in transpire in whole organization. If the leader believes in openness, the organizational culture will be built on openness towards different people different ideas and different school of thoughts and there will be respect for differences. My values for my organization will be to create a dynamic work culture which will be inclusive and open for all people from different cultural backgrounds and I will create a flexibility and openness for new ideas and unique solutions. I will create the shared goal as the connecting point between my team.

Personal philosophy:
Focus on long-term goals and then draw back to short-term goals to achieve them
Always keep your eye on big picture.
Success does not happen in the comfort zone. If you want to succeed, get out of your comfort zone.
The personal philosophy of a leadership has huge implications on organizational structure and organizational culture that is why the selection for leadership is very crucial because the decisions made my leader are influenced by his / her personal philosophy but in tur these decisions will have implications on every single person working in the organization. Not only employees, all primary and secondary stakeholders are influenced by it. My personal philosophy is to look into the big picture where the interest of all stakeholders are considered and are considered for long-term period. My goals and planning will be to achieve long-term goals through short-term objectives and help organization to reach its set strategic position.

Opportunities for professional and personal development:
“Stretch” opportunities being on-the-job for professional advancement
Continuous and many opportunities for promotion
Coaching and mentoring for career development through mentors (Berry, 2018).
If I were given the chance to select which organization I will chose for development of my profession and personal growth, I will choose an organization which has numerous opportunities for outgrowing my present capabilities. Just like Microsoft employees, they are motived for excelling and growing in personal and professional capacity while being on job. The presence of promotional opportunities will not only motivate me to work more but it will eventually help me to reach next levels of professional development. In a work environment like Microsoft, I could find plenty of people who I look up to and from whom I could get inspiration and learn from them.

Helpful Resources and organization for an innovative leader
Organizational environment of Microsoft is open and flexible for professional development
Required resources are present to innovate and build a name for yourself
Opportunities for learning from best minds of the world
The organizational structure and culture plays a significant role in professional development of a person. Organizational culture is the set of rue sin which people interact with each other. It includes the behaviors beliefs, norms, values and customs. If the organizational culture is supportive and motivating, one can achieve so much. The work culture of Microsoft is quite suitable for my professional development because I believe that on one hand, it is flexible enough to help me think outside the box and innovate and create but, it also has all the resources which are needed for innovation and creativity. It also provides the opportunity to learn form the smartest minds of the world.

Helpful Resources and organization for an innovative leader
Personalized training for leadership to enhance my mentoring and leadership skills
Integrated approach towards learning opportunity through physical resources and virtual resources
Working in an environment where everyone is striving to be best. Achieve self-motivation by working with energetic and passionate workers (Lotze, 2019).
Leaders are created by their internal motivation and external environment. When the external environment is nourishing, it helps one to think well and create and innovate. The external factor play a very crucial role in development of right set of qualities and capabilities in leaders. I think having mentors and supportive people around you can really transform you. To become an innovative leader, Microsoft is an excellent place because one can get personalized training for their leadership enhancement. The skills which they have can be groomed and the skills which they lack can be developed. An integrated approach of learning is offered at Microsoft where one can learn from colleagues, senior, juniors, customers and suppliers.

Leadership Qualities
I have a high-risk tolerance without getting stressed about outcomes.
I have Openness towards new people, new ideas and new trends
I have the ability to manage stressed conditions without losing my cool and manage teams with controlled and calm leadership
Leaders have some qualities which normal people lack that is why leaders lead while other follow. If I think myself as a leader, I have some qualities. To start, I do not panic even under extreme stressful situations. I ask myself, what is the way out and I work on that rather than freaking out and making others uncomfortable as well. I have high acceptance for uncertainty. Even when I do not know the end result of my experiments, I stay affirmative and believe in myself that if something goes wrong, it can be fixed. I am open to new ideas, people and projects so I think I can make a good leader.

Leadership Qualities
I have Emotional intelligence and know well how to utilize my emotions.
I have confidence in myself and self-believe that with dedication and smart work, I can achieve anything.
I am an action-oriented person I believe in doing things myself. I do not rely on other for ding my work for me (Miller, 2018).
Some further leadership qualities which I think I might have up to some level are having emotional intelligence which is the ability to use one’ emotions in a controlled manner in the way one wants. I do not let my emotions take control of me. I’m under emotions and I utilize them in a positive way. Emotional stability is one key qualities which I get complimented for. The emotional intelligence is not just understanding your emotions, it is about understanding emotions of others as well and as a leader one should be able to know about emotions of your followers. I am a very self-confident person about my abilities and my will to achieve even the most challenging task.

Leadership Qualities
I believe in teamwork and prefer to involve more people in creative thinking because the more the merrier.
I am a detail-oriented person. I pay attention to small details and make sure that nothing goes unnoticed.
I believe that having passion for work ensures that you always stay motivated, so I do only what I am passionate about and excel in it.
Leaders do not function in vacuum. One can only be a good leader if he or she has ability to work well with other people. For one to become a good leader, first you have to become a good follower. Follow your leader with dedication and sincerity and then help your followers grow so that they respect you and follow you. I believe in teamwork and work very well with small and big time alike based on my people’s skills. I have an extrovert personality due to which my interpersonal skills are enhanced and work well with other people. I always keep focused on details because a chain is as strong as its weakest link.
