  Managing Yourself

Do you know what it takes to be highly effective at work? Do you know what questions you need to ask, what issues you need to address to achieve fulfilment and lasting success in your career? The answers may be surprising. Chances are it’s not a lack of technical competence that will de-rail your ambitions. It’s a lack of self knowledge, a poor sense of direction and an unhelpful thinking style that will eventually sabotage your dreams, and leave you disillusioned with work.

This is not a report about the ‘hard’ skills required for leadership and management. It’s about the ‘soft’ personal qualities that every leader needs to explore and develop if they want to make a difference. In particular the report focuses on:

  • understanding the value of self-awareness: and how it’s linked to effectiveness
  • the imperative search for passion and meaningful purpose: and why it’s at the heart of everything successful leaders do and say
  • identifying personal strengths and managing weaknesses: because it’s only by knowing and using your strengths that you can achieve your goals
  • how to take effective action: through goal-setting, the ‘purposeful’ use of time

And if you’re still not sure you’re on the right track, the report ends with a questionnaire to help you assess, and then begin your journey to a more fulfilling work life.
