Leaders who are successful at cultivating talent are effective at coaching and
making training available. These leaders also provide objective performance
feedback on a timely basis.
As a leader, one must be able to give recognition to people who produce
excellent work and give extra effort.

8. Personal Mastery
The leader who masters themselves seeks improvement and displays personal
commitment.
This leader learns positive lessons from mistakes, accepts constructive criticism,
and pursues resources to improve and develop professionally. They do not set
imits on personal potential.

competencies in themselves on an ongoing basis.
