City Talent team had a great time today continueing on the series of leadership development sessions. The most interesting part of this session came up after I ended my presentation and asked everyone to complete a “Self -Empowerment” checklist.

In this checklist each team member was required to answer a few simple questions based on their understanding of what I presented earlier. The idea was to get everyone to introspect and let them discover their unique way to “Self Empowerment”.

To my surpise, i realized how well the team understood the concepts i presented them, here are a few excerpts from their feedback:

Question: What do you mean by self-empowerment?

Answers:

“Self Empowerment is a way to strengthen oneself to achieve goals in life/work. Its a fuel to run your body and mind to acheive targets. ” - Supratim

“Self Empowerment is to lead yourself to positive way of working with self confidence and clear mind set - Abhigna

Question: How can you make it happen for yourself?

Answers:

“Setting Short-term, acheivable goals which collectively pushes towards a bigger goal. ” - Supratim

“Own your product” - Chirag

“Self Discipline, Goal setting and Innovating within the limits of time and scope” - Sandip

At the end of this session, we continued branstorming on everone’s answers helping each other to improve their own “Self Empowerment” parameters.

At City Talent, leadership development has been our passsion. I beleive that great products/services are manifestations of people who build it. What are the qualities of great individuals? What makes an individual a good contributor and another an average performer? In my quest to find these and many such answers , I found ‘Personal Leadership’ to be playing a vital role in determining individual performance.

As a result of this finding, I have been conducting regular leadership development sessions on weekends and the results of these are increasingly getting visible in the City Talent team.

By means of this post, I will keep you updated about our leadership developement seminars and share ideas on what fuels us, while we build City Talent.
