The BELBIN Team Roles Profile identifies me as a primary DRIVER style, followed by an equal COORDINATOR and RESOURCE INVESTIGATOR second and third preference (refer Appendix 2). I relate well to the majority of the style indicators of the DRIVER style including providing leadership by directing and controlling team members, holding strong influence on team operations and objectives and enjoying goal setting. However, once again the primary DRIVER style includes characteristics which I do not relate to, or consider present in my leadership style. For example; I consider myself to be a people orientated person, who is conscious of how others are feeling. This does not reflect the DRIVER characteristics of being provocative and having the potential to hurt others feelings.

At the time I took the seminar, I was an experienced software developer but I wanted to transition to the role of project manager. Covey’s work helped me to identify and work on some of my behaviors, which in turn helped me to take on the project manager role successfully to date. I executed a particular approach, I applied Covey’s teachings to my transition to project management, and then to a personal level. One of the good consequences at a personal level was obtaining my bachelor’s degree at Western Governors University, in 2014.

...| Managing Organizations and Leading People Task 1 | A.1 Describe an Organization and its Objectives I would like to describe the organization once widely known as Kinko’s now recognized as Fedex-Kinko’s. More specifically, I would like to describe how the organization Kinko’s got its start and identify its objectives. Kinko’s was originally founded in 1970 by Paul Orfalea, a college student living in California. Named after Paul’s kinky hair, Kinko’s got its start as an effort to offer reasonably priced prints to other struggling college students. It quickly became the source for school materials and late night prints for last minute research papers. The company quickly grew and developed through the years to reach far beyond the average college students. With all of the business services and printing options offered it was no wonder that Kinko’s would eventually make its way into the offices of high executives in organizations across the county. Kinko’s locations began to pop up in every state offering services including small and exceptionally large prints offered in either black and white or full color.

...A Leadership Self Evaluation A.1- See attached completed Seven Habits Profile A.1.a. The Seven Habits Profile reveals several areas of success in leading as well as areas of opportunity for me to improve my leadership. I believe that my high scores in the emotional bank account and think win-win category are major contributing factors to my ability to synergize well with coworkers. I am a people person and I prefer to work as a team rather than individually. It is important to me that everyone on our team succeeds. I get to know my team members on a personal and professional level , know their challenges in life, so that I can help them overcome those challenges. It is my belief that having happy employees leads to having positive customer interactions and more productive workdays. I believe that when employees know you want them to succeed it makes the synergizing process run more smoothly, as all parties know the intentions of the others are good. My proactive attitude; taking responsibility for my work, my mood, and my circumstances; is another reason for my success in the synergize category. I don’t need public credit for a job well done, but I do make a point to say when I have made a mistake. This helps to build trust and transparency. I want my employees to be able to come to me to admit when they have made a mistake as well so that we can work together to fix the error. Without a culture of transparency and trust errors can get hidden and come up later...

...My Leadership Practices and Future C200 Managing Organizations and Leading People September 19th, 2014 My Leadership Practices and Future This following will outline my personal leadership practices and potential future leadership. To analyze my leadership qualities I will use the Seven Habits Profile and a leadership theory to determine my strengths, weaknesses, and areas of opportunity for improvement. In conclusion, I will determine the best recommendations for long-term improvement as well as SMART goals, or short-term courses of action, for leadership improvement. Seven Habits Profile The Seven Habits Profile revealed that I rank as outstanding in two categories, very good in six categories, and good in just one category. This seems to highlight what I am most exemplary at in terms of leadership, what I am just proficient at, and what presents itself as an opportunity for improvement. The main two strengths include having a work-life balance and being a proactive problem solver. An area of opportunity as indicated by the profile would be having the ability to synergize which is a combination of seeking the views of others and making creative decisions. The two strengths point to qualities I have constantly tried to improve upon. Earlier in my career, I was a bit of a workaholic and tended to bring work home with me. This resulted in a dismal personal life which eventually permeated negativity into my professional life as well. In light of...
