I will measure my development by? (Define how you will measure your development and success as a leader. Describe the specific actions or outcome you will use to determine this)

How do you measure success?

First, the degree of influence and inspiration on the people I aim to influence. The employees are a big part of my goals. The ability to incorporate them into the vision in a way that enables them to be inspired to have the same goals is important. I am able to measure development by the level through which the employees subscribe and respond to the vision of the job.

Secondly, tracking the level of learning is an important way to measure success. In my short term goals, I intend to study for two years and learn as much as I can on business management and maintain my values. In tracking my level of knowledge, I can be able to tell how far I am in my success and development. Education for two years can be measured through the level of commitment and of course the performance. On the other hand, knowledge on business management can be measured by creating a learning system or a review every time I learn something new.

Actions to determine development will include first, to set down timelines for all my goals. This is important as it will enable me to identify whether or not I am making progress. Also, it will enable me to identify the time lags that I might have in the performance that causes my timelines not to work out. This is an important part of measurability. Some of the goals can be measured by when they are completed.

This means checking the short term goals, long term goals, the core values and ways to execute that I have already laid out. This will enable me to consistently keep in touch with the bigger objective and to trace where I am in achieving it.
