Step 2: Take Actions Independently

  • Can you think of any situation in your earlier job where you needed to demonstrate selfmanagement and leadership skills in the face of a crisis or challenging professional situation?
  • How did you manage the situation? List out the things you did to manage the situation.
  • Do you think you would act differently if presented with a similar situation now?

Step 3: Practice with a Mentor

  • Discuss the above with your mentor.
  • Practice your skills in a hypothetical situation presented by the mentor.
  • Do a SWOT analysis to list out your strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats and plan on ways to make your strengths stronger and weaknesses weaker.
