What core values describe and guide who you are as a leader?

Assignment:

Imagine you are staying at a fancy hotel and get into the elevator with Jeff Weiner, former CEO of LinkedIn. As a highly regarded leader, he is presenting at a leadership conference and asks you for some help with his content.  He wants to know what your leadership philosophy is. Develop and record a 2 page document to respond to Mr. Weiner.

Some questions you may consider (you do not need to answer all of these) when developing your leadership philosophy:

What significant events have shaped you?

What are your beliefs about people and outlook on life?

What core values describe and guide who you are as a leader?

What traits, characteristics, skills, styles, motivation, goals, etc. do you bring to leadership that makes you effective?

What is your preferred communication style? How do like to receive information?

How do you want to be perceived as a leader?

What leaders do you admire (or dislike) and why?
