We are all familiar with the debate of whether “leaders are made, not born” or “leaders are born, not made.” What we do know is, great leadership, of any kind, begins with exceptional personal leadership.

“Personal leadership is the ongoing process of keeping your vision and values before you and aligning your life to be congruent with those most important things.  ~Stephen Covey

Do you associate leadership with business, politics and authority figures? Or is it more personal than that? Is it in what we do on a daily basis to give our best and to help others do their best? Have you established your own sense of personal leadership in the quality of being able to lead others at home, at work, in business or in other areas of your life?

Personal Leadership is the ability to lead yourself from your current circumstances or situation to a better future. Personal Leadership as your foundation means taking charge of your own life or situation by making a specific plan to create change that is congruent with your goals and desires.

Leadership begins with and is built upon the structure and the integrity of your personal foundation. Typically, leadership is associated with what one does, rather than the far more important acknowledgment of the many core competencies required to be a leader. After all, how successful can one be in life and business if you are not solidly planted in the roots of your personal foundation? More importantly, as a leader, how sustainable will your success in life or business be without exceptional skills that are completely aligned with your inner vision and values?

Is it time for you to take the first step towards evaluating your personal foundation? Are you ready to create excellence in your life by developing your personal leadership and interpersonal skills?
