The Power of Self-Leadership 

Traditionally, leadership development programs in the government were designed for employees in management positions. However, the problem is that a majority of the employees who benefited from such development are leaving, creating a gap in the leadership ranks.

As more employees become empowered because of diminishing supervisory levels and flatter organizations, there is an opportunity for workers at all levels to exercise greater influence over themselves and their work--- hence, self-leadership.  

"Tell me what To Do, and I'll Do It" 

is no longer the way to work...

As organizations become flatter and the layers between decision makers and employees are reduced, government agencies in the 21st century will require a workforce that responds quickly to rapid change, works interdependently, and is able to produce results.  

Managing within silos is not the answer either.

Managers must communicate with their employees. Environmental demands has caused organizations to shift their focus from investments in programs, management systems, and processes to that of the individual employee where individual performance is linked to organizational results.

For government agencies to be successful...

  • Employees must become more proactive about their work. 

  • Managers must model the leadership behavior they desire from their employees that will lead to high performance and measurable results. 

  • Both must explore creative ways to sustain individual and group performance.
