Tip #5 Stop wasting time and money on (leadership) skills training that you don’t use.

Tip #5 – Practice, Practice, Practice!
We come to the last of my tips and if you follow at least some of these you will find the value you extract from your work, or leadership skills, training and development will increase many-fold. This will result in faster career progression, greater knowledge and personal development. It will be a win for any organisation that has invested in you and great for you in realising your potential.
So, Tip #5 is really just a prompt for me to ask you….

”what are you going to do this week to embed your new skills?”

In this series we have explored:

1. the importance of applying skills ASAP
2. visualising the process to success
3. socialising your learnings
4. finding someone to practice with

Each Monday (or other day of your choosing), set yourself a plan to do at least one thing from my list. You don’t even need to have done any recent development, take a quick review of something you have previously learned that really stood out for you and ask yourself...

“what am I going to do this week to embed this skill and make it a habit?”
 
Because training without implementation is a waste of time and money.
If you missed the rest of my practical tips for embedding new knowledge, check them on this page. Or for a conversation about ensuring leadership development results in meaningful change, just message me to book a call to see how I can assist you or your organisation.
