Skill development plan--- about negotiation and leadership

Good and effective leadership is a complex issue . It is a compound mixture of knowing one 's self , other people and finding the proper balance of making these complexities work to one 's objectives

Leadership Skills

Two important traits that make an effective leader are his level of emotional competence and the effectiveness of his negotiation skills Based on the assessment exercises , I was able to identify my strengths and weaknesses and use the results in developing ways on how to maintain my strong points and improve my weak points

Emotional

Competence (EQ

The above scores of my assessment shows the varying levels of competency in each of the different components . Although the considered as normal , there are distinct traits that I am strong at and also traits that I am weak at

Leadership Assessment

The assessment results show that my leadership pro is that of 2-1 , 2 being my primary and 1 being my secondary style . The style range also indicates a moderate level of flexibility among the different pros but with a more pronounced orientation to my primary , which is S2 Furthermore , my score of 27 in the style adaptability matrix suggests a moderate degree of flexibility

Based on the above assessments , the strong and weak areas of my competencies were made more evident

Strengths

I am quite attuned to my real feelings and have a strong ability to recognize and evaluate my emotions and their effects to the people around me

Though I am confident of my capabilities and know my self-worth , I am also aware of my limitations and just how far I am able to deliver and meet expectations . This realization allows me to know when to seek for help and admit that I cannot do everything alone

Being highly self-aware , I accept both my positive and negative traits I am not afraid to own up to my mistakes and I understand the essence of criticism and how to use it to my advantage

My leadership pro of 2-1 implies an ability to shift expectations in relationships . I am flexible in these aspects and I tend to put a more prominent importance of getting the tasks done

Being highly task-oriented , I am effective in demanding situations and in instances of low to moderate level of readiness of subordinates

Weaknesses

I have a very low score in self-regulation components which means that I often have little control of my emotions . I find it difficult at times to keep my impulses in check

There are times that I am overwhelmed by the pressures around and am prone to get flustered . In some instances , it is difficult to be comfortable with changes or new ideas and approaches

It is also an effort at times to tone down negative and disruptive emotions especially when what is expected is not delivered

I do not fare well in situations where I do not take the lead . It shows a lack of faith in people 's aptitude and ability to perform better...
