How To Be Exceptional: Drive Leadership Success By Magnifying Your Strengths |
The author’s suggest 360-degree feedback as a way to find strengths and weaknesses because this gets feedback from subordinates, peers, and superiors. It will give the leader a more rounded image of their self since most are not as self-aware as they tend to believe. An interesting result of one study was that leaders who focus on using their strengths (once known and understood) create a detailed development plan and are more likely to stick to it and improve. Whereas leaders focusing on weakness tend to create a high-level plan and dread working on it.
