Such a process has been important for my leadership development process. Inspiring others also helps me gain confidence which is important for a leader.

2. What are your opportunities for improvement according to your own assessment?

Unlike my strengths in inspiring others and showing the followers the way towards success, I have my own weaknesses in leadership process. My lack of proper energy to challenge the system and opt for innovation has been one of my weak areas. The lack of proper innovative ideas compels me to go with traditional ideas which are sometimes not liked by the followers. I believe I must take the opportunity to develop and implement innovative and new ideas in order to ensure success in the most efficient manner. Such a process can also help me to gain confidence and deliver best results. Apart from this, I also needs to encourage the followers from heart which can make them more dedicated towards the system and encourage them to work in a more professional and efficient process.
