The Leadership Character Index™
Underpinning personality, talent and behaviour style, shaping who we are as a person and defining our leadership is our ‘character’. Character is crucial; the importance of character, often ignored, cannot be overstated. I define character as:Character… is our disposition of distinctive qualities, developed from our beliefs and values accumulated in early life and reinforced over time, determining many of our responses in almost every situation
Our Character is a major influencer of our behaviour (good & bad). It is the ‘learned’ and consequently, the variable dimension of ‘The Authentic Self’. It is not present from birth and can be modified “or indeed changed” through changing our thinking and consequently our beliefs and values.
Particularly important to those who lead others, mature character traits are equally as important to all who wish to have sustainable success, personal contentment and peace. We should all aim for and would all benefit from possessing a greater ‘strength of character’
As a leader, we often think of enhancing our influence by developing the behaviour that arises from our Attitude, Skills & Knowledge. Followers, on the other hand, will often decide whether to do so or not, based on the “character” that shines through our behaviour when we connect, which we may or may not, be aware of. Scratch beneath the surface of any leadership personality and you will uncover ‘character’. We express our leadership character as Personal Maturity and can assess it by measuring sixteen-character traits contained within The Leadership Character Index™.
