ELC Thing 6 – What does self-leadership mean for me?
Self-leadership is about recognising your own leadership skills and abilities, and taking responsibility for using and developing these. The way you exercise self-leadership influences how you demonstrate all other leadership capabilities in your practice.
This badge is awarded to people who have:
- worked through Thing 6: What does self-leadership mean for me?
- provided evidence of their learning through reflective writing.
This is part of the 23 Things ELC Leadership programme.
To earn this badge you must:
- work through Thing 6 of 23 Things ELC Leadership
- write an account of at least 200 words.
We will decline Open Badge applications without a completed reflective activity.
