Before you can begin to lead others, you must first understand yourself. You must understand your strengths so you can further develop those talents, and you must also understand your weaknesses so you can identify areas to improve. Both strengths and weaknesses should be included in a personal development plan. The ACHE Healthcare Executive Competency Assessment Tool that you have either completed or started in Unit 1 in preparation for this assessment is particularly important. Review the results of self-assessment and you will analyze the results and develop a personal leadership plan to set goals for the future.
Write a 7–10 page paper that addresses the following:
· Discuss the five leadership domains assessed by the ACHE assessment tool.
· Determine strategies to develop the identified strengths and weaknesses for each of the five domains.
o For each of the five domains, summarize both your strengths and your weaknesses.
o For each domain, identify at least one resource that you can use immediately to further develop your skills, for a total of five resources.
· Describe qualities needed by leaders.
· Analyze leader’s qualities you have and the ones you need to work on developing.
