GRAD 702 - Reflections on Module 4 Concepts

Would you consider yourself a manager or a leader at this stage in your career? Explain your reasoning.

That’s a tough call.  I would like to say leader, but I know I have a lot of skills that need to be better developed.  In my current work position, I do not have direct reports, so I can’t apply the question so much there.  In my personal life, I do lead a couple of groups.  I think the key area I need to address in all my leadership training is how to better delegate and use others’ time.  I do a poor job of asking others to help complete a project.  I end up taking on too many tasks and lose focus on getting the final project completed.

How did your meeting go with your coach? Summarize your coach meeting here.

Due to scheduling difficulties, I will not be meeting with my coach until next week.  I’m sure it will be a good meeting and I anticipate what he has to say.

What other information related to Week 4 assignments did you consider to be of value?

I think one of the fun parts about this weeks learning was doing the vision (or backfit) scenario.  It was very interesting to try and draw out a day in my life one year from now.  It will be beneficial as I complete my professional development plan, in order to know the areas where I need the most work.
