2024-25 LM L7 CE01 Professional Development Plan : L7 Leadership Mindset Assessment Brief

ASSIGNMENT DETAILS

In order to complete the assignment, you will need to begin by seeking feedback about your strengths and weaknesses from reliable sources. You should ask between 4-6 individuals who know you know you personally or professionally (can include fellow students, for example), to provide feedback on areas where they feel you already have developed skills and areas where you could improve. Use the Employability Pyramid to think about which skills to consider. Once you have received the feedback, take that into account when thinking about which three skills (development priorities) you want to focus on and develop over the coming academic year.

In the following sections of the PDP, you will need to think about what goals you hope to achieve by working on these three priorities, what internal and external barriers may be holding you back and how to address them, and what actions to take to begin to improve. It is very important with the actions to think of actions that are Specific, Measurable, Accountable, Realistic, and Time-Conscious (SMART) The more specific your actions are, the more focused you will be on accomplishing them within a specific timeframe, which will enable you to make realistic progress. The final step of the PDP is to come up with two questions that you can ask someone you know to ask you on a weekly or monthly basis in order to remind you of your goals and help you to stay on track. You can sign up for a coaching session with one of the Leadership coaches in your first term, which will help you with assessing your goals and completing your PDP.

(Please note that the leadership coaches are specific to the Leadership Mindset Module and are NOT the same as the academic coaches or the employability careers consultants. This is a unique coaching opportunity specifically to help you with your leadership skills development and PDP.) You must submit your PDP by the end of term in order to pass the module.

Following the first term, you will have the option of meeting with your leadership coach two more times, once each term, to track your progress and support you in your development with your PDP. 

Learning outcomes:

• Effectively demonstrate the capacity to reflect on personal strengths and areas where they need to improve.
