Identify one of the leadership values you would like to develop further over the course of the next year and propose an improvement plan (tasks, dates, measures of progress). Your plan should be specific, measurable, achievable, relavant and time bound. Leadership values are discussed in Chapter 7 of the text and you can find examples and lists through your own research. These values tend to define your "personal character" or "personal brand" and should be consistent with you actions and behaviour. Examples would include: honesty, hardworking, trustworthy, ethical, loyal, persistent, optimistic, motivating, encouraging, brave, caring, respectful, give and take responsibility, admit to mistakes and learn, accountable, reliable, keep promises, listen and coach others, take initiative, proactive, maintain stamina, positive attitude, etc.
