Personal growth and development is hard to define with only one answer.
I have found over the years that there are bascially 2 elements that need to be in place in order to grow professionally and personally and these 2 elements also benefit me as an affiliate with SFI:
1. Read a variety of books, articles and social media postings on the topic of leadership, branding, entrepreneurship, business, marketing, and anything else that may be of interest to you personally so that you can incorporate what resontaes with you into your life - personal and business;
2. Assoicate with those that have skills, knowledge, and character traits that you wish/want to develop in yourself. Review of your associations is key to personal growth and challenging yourself to become the best that you can be in leadership. Associations either will challenge you to stretch yourself to be better tomorrow than today or they will accept you for who you are thus lead without transformation in self.
I have found these 2 elements critical in not only my leadership development but also in personal development. We are humans and we are made up of so many desires, wants and wishes so it is important to develop oursevles as a "whole person" and not just "an area of improvement". The more we work on our lack in skills to become a strength in skills through reading and assocaitions - there is no limit as to what you can do while leading yourself and the people who wish to follow you.
