LEADERS’ NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS- GOALS FOR 2015 (POST 73)

January 9, 2015

At the start of a new year, many individuals create a list of resolutions. However, most of these lists get lost or forgotten after a few weeks. Leaders tend to make goals for action on a regular basis and they tend to try to make their goals real and also try to make them happen. Resolutions are in reality goals for action. Here are ten goals leaders to make happen:

  1. Read at least two books a month-one leadership book and one book from another interest area.
  2. Develop a mentoring or coaching relationship with one potential or practicing leader a year.
  3. Have dinner with your family at least five times a week- if possible every night. Do not allow phone interruptions.
  4. Attend at least on leadership course or workshop a year.
  5. Make social justice an integral part of your leadership activities.
  6. Be synergistic. Integrate tools and skill development methodologies from multiple approaches to leadership.
  7. Continue to study culture, value frameworks, and organizational dynamics.
  8. Share leadership with others. Be a team-builder.
  9. Skow passion in all things
  10. Collaborate. Collaborate. Collaborate.
