ELC Thing 13 – The impact I have on others
Scotland’s social services need effective leadership at all levels of the workforce and everyone has a leadership role to play. Self-leadership is about recognising your own leadership skills and abilities, and taking responsibility for using and developing these.
This badge is awarded to people who have:
- worked through Thing 13: Awareness of the impact I have on others
- 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 13 of 23 Things ELC Leadership
- write at least 200 words to evidence how you have reflected on the impact your behaviour, actions, words, attitude and manner have on others.
