I created a resume that wasn't too traditional, plain, and boring; considering that most recruiters or companies probably look at hundreds of them a day, this is probably a much better way. I hope you enjoy. If you like it and want to copy some of it please feel free to! After all, it is free. :)

Who am I? - Personal Development Framework for EmployeesHppy
This document provides a framework to help build strong relationships with employees by learning about their personal values. It includes sections to have employees fill out regarding what they enjoy, their motivations, values, strengths, weaknesses, and professional preferences to provide insight into their personality and values. The results can then be used to check compatibility with the company's culture and values. The overall aim is to understand employees on a personal and professional level to foster loyal relationships.
In today’s ever evolving business world, quality leadership is now recognized as a key factor in whether an organization will ultimately succeed or fail. More and more businesses are now hiring those individuals who possess Transformational Leadership skills to drive their company towards long-lasting success.
Ultimately, a Transformational Leader is one who empowers and develops the people they lead to become leaders themselves, and challenges them to bring out their best and take greater ownership of their work.
We’ve identified 6 Core Values of a Modern Day Transformational Leader:
#1 Community, Cooperation
Fundamental to Transformational Leadership is the ability to foster a sense of community via collaboration with peers and amongst their team.
Transformational leaders value cooperation over competition. They embrace the philosophy that only through cooperation can we create more effective solutions to complex challenges. Transformational Leaders view the world as an Interconnected System and recognize that there is a Natural Order that guides Emergence or punctuated shifts.
#2 Social Responsibility
Social responsibility refers to a viewpoint that an organization or individual has an obligation to act to benefit society at large. Being socially responsible creates trust, a good image and helps to foster a positive reputation for your company.
In order for an organization to be socially responsible, they must adopt a perspective of Wholism and a “Global World View.” Transformational Leaders recognize that the part reflects and contains the whole. They value doing their part to be socially responsible and recognize that this opens up new relationships and opportunities. Ultimately, social responsibility helps to build a foundation of community and a culture that people can get behind.
#3 Service-Oriented Leadership & Altruistic Motivations
Transformational Leaders value service-oriented leadership and are actively involved in creating a better way of life.
Fundamental to this attitude is the underlying principle that they are driven by a connection to a deeper sense of purpose and meaning as a leader. As author Lewis Carroll once wrote, “One of the deep secrets of life is that all that is really worth the doing is what we do for others.”
#4 Balance, Equality, & Diversity
All three of these core values of transformational leadership seek to harmonize and unite differences.
Transformational Leaders understand the importance of embracing diversity as a key to co-creative alchemy, especially in regards to Gender Balance & Ethnic Equality.
#5 Optimism Towards Future
Transformational Leaders have a positive mindset and are optimistic yet realistic about the future.
They have an Abundance Mentality, meaning they understand there are always new chances and opportunities, mixed with Idealism, and Mindful Activism.
#6 Whole-Process Learning
Transformational Leaders have developed the ability to utilize Whole Brain
Lead follow or get out of the way. One of my favorite quotes about how to be a leader. This got me thinking about what the strongest traits are for business leaders. Leadership as some identifiable attributes and we captured them here.
This document discusses values-driven leadership and organizational culture. It defines culture as "the way things are done around here" which is a reflection of past and present leaders' values and behaviors. Values are described as motivations and priorities, which can be positive like trust and integrity, or potentially limiting like power and status. Excellent companies develop cultures incorporating leaders' values, which can survive for decades. The real role of a leader is managing corporate values. Organizations with aligned values and strategy have high performance. Whole system change requires addressing individuals' internal values and external behaviors, as well as aligning groups' culture and actions with their mission.
Character is developed over time through our thoughts, words, and actions. It is shaped by how we behave when facing adversity or criticism, and is more important than intellect or qualifications alone. An individual with strong character can achieve their ideals through persistence and by making character formation itself the goal.
Good leaders connect with their people by acknowledging them each day. They maintain a positive attitude and focus on positive feedback rather than problems. Leaders should create an atmosphere where people can choose interesting work and lead through trust and inspiration rather than just commands or authority. Effective leadership involves listening more than talking. It also means being inclusive of minority voices and confronting cultural differences. A good leader adapts to each organization rather than imposing one style. Leadership tests your own reality and seeks the truth above politics. People follow the leaders' actions more than their words, so leaders must set a good example.
You will learn what values-based leadership really is, sort out some of the misconceptions, and learn what the pros and cons of implementing a values-based leadership style are.
Values-based leadership focuses on using core personal and organizational values to guide decisions and strategy. The presentation discusses the importance of values in providing guidance, navigating differences, and changing over time. It also describes how values can be implicit or explicit in an organization. The speaker's core values are determined through a values inventory assessing importance of values like achievement, creativity, and spirituality. Alignment of personal values with those of superiors, peers and subordinates is important for effective leadership.
This document discusses building character and self-esteem. It identifies keys to character like fairness and responsibility. It defines self-concept and self-esteem, noting that positive self-concept is related to high self-esteem. The document recommends maintaining a positive outlook, focusing on strengths, and addressing weaknesses to build confidence. It suggests an activity to create a timeline of achievements and write a short autobiography describing how events on the timeline helped build pride and confidence.
This document discusses core values in nursing care. It defines core values as the values put on one's work, clients, and self that guide care and living. Core values in caring encompass empathy, respecting clients' rights and privacy, and treating each client as an individual. The document also discusses barriers to care like discrimination and poverty. It emphasizes the importance of considering each client's holistic needs and using nursing models to understand the whole person.
Moral values are standards that govern individual behavior and choices. They can be derived from society, government, religion, or oneself. Moral values are flexible depending on one's culture but generally refer to what is considered right or wrong. A useful way to think about one's moral compass is that it has four directions - integrity, forgiveness, compassion, and responsibility - which represent universal principles honored across cultures. Some examples of moral values discussed include prejudice, lying, oppression, treason, willful ignorance, brainwashing of children, murder, greed, theft, fraud, and violence.
In the intricate tapestry of life, connections serve as the vibrant threads that weave together opportunities, experiences, and growth. Whether in personal or professional spheres, the ability to forge meaningful connections opens doors to a multitude of possibilities, propelling individuals toward success and fulfillment.
