What is a Personal
Leadership Charter?
You can’t be a successful leader if you don’t know what you’re about, what you
want and what’s expected of you. Leaders are expected to clarify things for
others - including purpose, vision, values, strategy, and to some extent, goals.
it’s not possible to do this unless they have a good understanding of themselves
and what needs to be achieved.
Once leaders clarify and articulate their vision, values and capabilities they
are positioned to make better professional, personal, career and even lifestyle
decisions. This translates into being better able to lead others.
A Personal Leadership Charter is both a
statement and a process which aims to
help leaders determine what they expect
from themselves and what others can
expect from them in terms of their vision,
values, capabilities and practices.
