Episode 014: Performance Management -- Self-Assessment for Leaders
Key Takeaways:
Leaders need to take the time to self-assess because they people with whom they’re working aren’t always comfortable providing them with feedback.
Self-assessment does take time but it can help leaders avoid or reduce the impact of issues in the future, saving time in the long run.
Journalling is a great method of self-assessment because it gets things out of your head and onto paper where you can more easily evaluate things from a distance.
Personality and skills assessments are often useful tools to help us see our blind spots or consider ourselves from new angles.
