Becoming the Kind of Leader You Admire - The Endless Journey The process of becoming a great leader is perpetual. It is an endless journey of self-discovery. There will be successes along the way, but no failure, only feedback from which you can choose to learn and grow. Sometimes the challenges you face will seem too enormous for you, but you will benefit more from the difficult parts of your travels than the easy roads. There will never be a convenient time for you to invest in developing yourself as a leader. You may be fortunate enough to have help – a mentor, coach or guide who provides valuable advice or support in your quest to become a great leader – but no one can give you what you deny yourself. And do not wait until you are given a position of leadership. Commit today to becoming the kind of leader you admire regardless of your role or title in your organization. This module will challenge you to set goals for your leadership development that extend far into the future, clearly imagining yourself as the leader you admire and then taking steps to become more like that leader every day. As you look back on your journey from the far future you will be amazed at your progress!
