using examples from your work, school, and/or personal experiences to help make
your points.
b. Identify one leadership skill you would like to develop/improve this semester and
explain the reason for your choice. I will give some examples in class to help
orient you.
c. List two to three action steps you will take this semester to develop this skill. You
will report on your progress in Part II of the paper later this semester, so be sure to
set goals that are specific, realistic and will allow you to measure the progress
you’ve made.
