A Leader’s Path to Growth
Leaders are often encouraged to grow and change, not because they’re lacking, but because leadership naturally invites ongoing learning. Carrying influence means continually developing the skills and character that support others well.
Growth That Honors Who They Already Are
Being asked to grow doesn’t mean they aren’t accepted as they are. Growth simply builds on the strengths, temperament, and personality they already bring. It’s an affirmation that their presence matters, and that developing further will only deepen their impact.
From Self Awareness to Increased Influence
A key part of growing as a leader is gathering information about yourself, your patterns, strengths, blind spots, and tendencies. This kind of self-awareness doesn’t diminish confidence; it sharpens it. When leaders understand how they naturally show up, they can lead with greater clarity, intention, and influence.
Leadership thrives when acceptance and growth work together. You can value who a leader is today while also inviting them into who they are becoming. Learn more about growing as a leader through our leadership development tools at Developing people group. Start with a 360 survey and continue with individualized coaching.
The REACH 360
Without strong leadership, teams struggle. The REACH 360 gathers anonymous feedback from from 8–25 peers including supervisors, peers, and direct reports to assess a leader’s strengths, growth areas, and blind spots across 16 key behaviors. It builds self-awareness by showing how others perceive their style. Ideal for coaching, it includes a 60-minute debrief and a focused action plan.
