    Assessing your own strengths and weaknesses

    Medium effort

    High impact

    Business leaders often find themselves hurtling from one task to another. There are fires to put out, staff to support and a burgeoning email inbox to tackle. It’s hard to get out of the day-to-day of running a business. However, sitting down and reflecting on your own strengths and weaknesses can help you free up time, decide what to delegate and determine how you could improve as a leader.

    How will I know if my action plan is working?

    Quarterly review of challenging situations

    Look at the progress you're making on the big issues

    Why this metric?

    Writing down the challenges you’ve faced allows you to see if you’ve made progress on your strengths and weaknesses, plus it can be cathartic.

    How do I start tracking?

    Set a reminder to evaluate your challenges every quarter.
