LPI Reflection Blog#6

The leadership performance inventory (LPI) looks at how strong you are in different styles of leadership. After taking the assessment, my highest principles were both modeling the way and enabling others to act. My lowest  principle was challenging the process. I was not surprised by my results because, comparing to my StrengthsQuest results, includer and individualization were in my top five strengths and I think that this goes in hand with the enabling others style because those who usually enable others, build relationships and help make others feel like they are part of the group and making a difference. I think that the principle of modeling the way goes in hand with my leadership philosophy because I think those who are leaders should guide the way for their group members and be clear and consistent on their beliefs. I am also not surprised that challenging the process was my lowest because I have noticed that I tend to usually want to take the safe route when doing things so things can turn out well. I usually feel like there is more of chance sometimes to fail when challenging myself which makes me not want to do it. In order to work on improving this aspect I think I should take more risks and challenge myself to be and do better. I think that even though I may fail, some benefit may come out of it that can help me in the long run. I think I can also improve this by trying to fix things in a group or project that are seen as challenging and try to think of ways to improve them instead of just ignoring them and taking the safe route. I think that improving and continuing to do all of these aspects will help me in the future to be a better leader all around.
