  • Thinking
  • Relating to others

  • Participation and contributing


How does that competency relate to being a good leader? 
Practice what you preach - Keep the respect for you as a leader. 
Want to work with people that display these qualities. 
Interlinked. Use as self assessment - Leadership qualities. 

How does that competency relate to PTC number 5?
e.g. Strategic planning - towards a shared vision - using collaboration across team members. 
Of the same mind but bringing different perspectives and strengths. As the leader you celebrate these and challenge ideas to develop to a richer point. 

e.g. Lacking relating to others in a professional sense more of a personal sense. 

e.g. Today's meet. https://todaysmeet.com/ 

'Reflective thinking turns experience into insights'.
