Overview
Self-leadership is the practice of understanding who you are, identifying your desired experiences, and intentionally guiding yourself toward them. It spans the determination of what we do, why we do it, and how we do it.
Developing self-leadership skills is important to being an effective leader since it hones your emotional intelligence, self-awareness, and self-management. Self-leadership requires self-awareness—the ability to discern how your own emotions or personal biases may affect your decision-making.
When you accurately recognize your own competencies and challenges, you can create a better plan for reaching your desired outcome. Self-leadership enables managers to lead with more awareness and understanding, and it helps make great leaders who set an example for their teams.
