Creating a Personal Development Plan to Grow as a Leader Often in leadership roles, the process of identifying a performance or opportunity gap, crafting a plan to tackle that gap, and implementing that plan requires an array of leadership qualities, competences, and practices. This process then becomes an opportunity for leaders to try on new behaviors or to work on aspects of their leadership where they may most need or want to grow. With your action plan drafted, consider how you intend to use your work on that challenge to stretch yourself as a leader. What qualities, competences, or practices (from the list you completed at the start of this course) do you want to develop? How will you use your action items to enhance your leadership and progress on your journey of personal development? Use the table below to guide your personal growth planning process.
