Awareness of my leadership legacy will guide intentional growth and decision-making.

Comment on Frank White's post: I learned about undermatching and its impact on graduation rates. I plan to share this with the admissions team so they can critically review applicants and better assess their potential for success from the outset

I learned a lot about leadership. While each part of the leadership framework is important on its own, true effectiveness comes when all three are aligned and working together toward the same goal.

A leader’s style must be dynamic, adapting to both the situation and the needs of their followers in order to achieve the best possible results. 

I have learned that the core tenets of leadership provide a clear pathway to achieving results. While there are various paths to leadership, it is essential to know what we want, provide clear direction, build trust, and foster hope among staff in order to achieve the best outcomes.

Leading by example - Pacesetting is my preferred style.  I want my team to know that set goals are achievable, and let's get it done.  I also want to allow my team members the chance to develop and realize their full potential. 

Comment on Sarah Batz's post: This is quite an eye-opener.  Team members will try to improve processes or eliminate redundancies.  Others will stick to the status quo and follow established blueprints.   I now understand the leaders (former) versus the managers (latter).

Comment on Vladimir Velasquez's post: I agree Vladimir, good leaders and managers are both vital for organizational growth and success.

Comment on Kassidy Lax's post: Your statement is true Kassidy, but it takes a different kind of personality to manage teams with diverging needs, performance levels, and skill sets.   While I think the two roles can overlap at times, I also think that the role of a manager is tougher than that of a leader.  

This module taught me the differences between project managers, project sponsors, and project team leaders.  Project sponsors act as the liaison between senior management and the project team.
