The key to growing your own leadership capacity is knowing what your leadership strengths and weaknesses are. The whole point of having a LEADS framework is to give people a standard of expectations that define high quality leadership, and against which you can measure yourself. Once you have done so, you can then decide which aspects of your own leadership you wish to develop in a deliberate way.

At the end of each of the five chapters relative to the LEADS framework—i.e., Lead self (click here), Engage others (click here), Achieve results (click here), Develop coalitions (click here), and Systems transformation (click here)—are individual self-assessments, organized according to your leadership role. This includes informal leaders from families or communities who wish to exercise their influence to make the health system better.

If you so wish, once you have completed the self-assessments, you can move on to a deliberate, self-directed approach to growing your own leadership capacity. To do so, click here.
