This plan should include both short-term (within the next six months) as well as longer term goals for your development as a leader. The goals should not be focused on your career goals but rather should be focused specifically on leadership skill development. These may be related to your ability to achieve broader career goals you might have. Use the SMART goal criteria (specific, measurable, actionable, realistic, and timely) to develop your short and long term goals. A minimum of three goals should be identified

SMART Goals Resource
Here are two examples of a smart goal related to leadership:
· By the end of December, I will improve my listening skills in our unit based council by using active listening strategies to demonstrate to my peers that I value what they are saying during meetings. I will do this by asking open-ended questions, requesting clarification, maintaining open body language and not looking at my phone.
· I will join one hospital or shared governance committee by the end of the year related to my interest in patient education to increase my network of peers with this interest.

RESEARCH PROJECT 2
PLEASE READ!
Attached please find your completed SLPI Report to be used in your Personal Leadership Assessment assignment. As you review the results it is important to remember that this report is not a judgement of how well you do the five leadership practices included in the framework, it is an observation of how often you do the identified behaviors. It is likely that in some areas your self-assessment will align closely with your observer feedback and in other areas there may be a difference in how you perceive the frequency in which you engage in that behaviors and the assessment of your observers. The results of this assessment should assist you with determining areas where you might want to focus attention as you develop your leadership skills. The SLPI Student Guide is also attached. Please review the guide prior to reading your results and then again as you look at your results so that you understand the context of the report and how it can best be used.
