Development -- growth, learning, improvement -- starts with ME. Before I can ever ask others to do those things I must be the first to jump in feet first in the continuous improvement process.
Making ME a better person, better employee, better follower, better leader is the first goal.
Some strategies that help in the continuous improvement of ME:
- Judge dimensions of improvement on continua rather than YES/NO scales.
- Invite someone to join me in the journey. Or several.
- Be willing to drop what's not working and add something new ad hoc (not on a time table).
- Make improvement efforts incremental, rather than whole hog.
- Calendar regularly time for assessments of progress, and revise as needed.
Team continuous improvement works the same, starting with ME.
