40. Taking on the role of a leader is a ‘‘stretching’’ experience. In order to take on broader
responsibilities, students must acquire additional skills and master some key
leadership challenges.
Researchers at the Center for Creative Leadership (CCL) define leadership
development as: ‘‘the expansion of a person’s capacity to be effective in
leadership roles and processes’’
CHALLENGE
As long as people don’t feel the need to change, they won’t. The most powerful leadership
experiences challenge people. Tough situations force leaders out of their comfort zone and
give them opportunities to practice new skills.
SELF-
ASSESSMENT
Assessment data leads to self-evaluation.
By asking themselves questions like: ‘‘What am I doing well?’’ or ‘‘How do I need
to improve?’’, leaders can learn to identify gaps between their current situation and
where they need to be.
SUPPORT
To make the most of challenges, leaders need support and positive feedback.
The most common source of support is other people (family, co-workers,), but
developing leaders can also tap into organizational learning resources or relevant
personal development readings.
