Part A
A good leader is always a good learner and they take good things in them from their
experiences. I considered many things and take as them learning, which will be used in the future. It is
necessary to develop new skills, which is useful for the personal and professional development of a
person. I learnt that leadership is a group of many other skills. I learnt about the various skills in the self-
awareness program. There are many activities, which are helpful in the self-awareness, such as Johari
window activity and project management (Bolden, 2016).
I learnt about five basic things, which are necessary for a person to survive in the market as well
as in personal life. I learnt about the strategic theme, which enables thought to find the best route
through the clutter. A second most important skill is positivity, which is necessary to understand a
critical problem. It is necessary to make a positive impact on the followers, which makes a good image in
front of others (Clapp-Smith, Vogelgesang, & Avey, 2009). A leader should be futuristic because it will
make a good impact on their work and he will do good works. I learnt that always find a solution to a
problem, which will provide benefits in the future. In addition, leadership makes huge impacts on the
performance of a person (Gerhardt, 2019).
I learnt about responsibility, which is necessary to handle critical situations and business
problems. It forces me to take psychological ownership for my work. I learnt that apologies are not
enough. Therefore, a leader should take responsibility for their commitment (Day, Fleenor, Atwater,
Sturm, & McKee, 2014). In addition, I learnt about the command, which leads me to take charge of
critical conditions.
Part B
I learnt about many different skills, which is necessary for a leader. I will improve my skills using
self-reflective activities, such as reflective writing, blog writing, and others. I will create an action plan
for the next six months and monitor all the activities through the Gantt chart. It is necessary to control
all the activities and it will provide satisfaction and condition of the activities. I learnt from (Tseng &
Levy, 2018), that performance measurement is necessary for a leader. I will join different activities,
which will provide help me in self-awareness. Therefore, I know about my strengths and weaknesses.

Moreover, leadership is necessary to making a person strong and take proper actions in personal and
professional life. I will use self-reflection techniques for personal and professional development.
