What in life do you value and why is it important to understand your values as a leader? How do they make you a better leader?


           The things I value in life is family, creativity, and my faith. It is important to understand one's values as a leader for it'll give a greater understanding of oneself. By understanding oneself can help the person to find the strength and weakness of one's value. To hold these values comes with challenges and burdens, and through these challenges many will find themselves willing to negotiate their value so it may be easier for one to follow. Every employee or member has a value that each clings on to through their life. To understand one's value is important in order to show others that one doesn't have to negotiate one's value for the "American dream" or for "pursuit of happiness" in the life of business or job.

             These values that one holds makes the individual a better leader, because the individual has to understand each value's weaknesses and strengths or has to make decisions to avoid negotiations of one's value and still get the job done. With each value comes a burden, and to be able to endure such burden for one's belief is already a step to success. Without struggle one cannot understand the vulnerability of one's weakness, and to go through each process will help individuals to apply their strengths in their leadership skills.
