What this check looks at

  • A title puts people on your org chart. How you lead decides whether they bring you their best work or only what is required.
  • The leaders I have watched struggle were rarely short on effort. They were strong in one area and blind in another.
  • Your biggest gap is often hiding behind your biggest strength. Speed becomes impatience. Standards become control.
  • You will get a score for four parts of leadership: point the way, drive the work, build your people and lead yourself first.
Srdjan Perisic

Responsibility came to me long before any title did. I learned to lead by owning the work in front of me, and I still believe that is where leadership starts.

Answer for your ordinary weeks, not your best one. A few statements describe habits that get in the way, so read each one before you choose.

1If I asked anyone on my team what we are trying to accomplish this year, they could answer in one sentence.
2I tell people who their work helps, not only what the work is.
