"Leaders are not made overnight.  It takes time and experience to develop leadership skills."  It also takes guidance and a nudge in the right direction, and this book gave me both.  The self-assessments were very useful, and helped me see where I was running into difficulties.  Because the assessments build on past assessments, I couldn't be lazy and skip them, either!I found the section on goals very useful.  The book discusses what goals are, how to set them, and how to evaluate progress.  My biggest issue has been setting unrealistic goals- I've learned how to visualize where I want to end up, and how to manage my time and stay motivated until I get myself there.  I also appreciated the author's instruction to celebrate my accomplishments- even the small ones!This workbook is well-written and accessible.  All terms are clearly defined, and the information is broken down into approachable segments.  It helped me examine myself, see my strengths, and learn my weaknesses.  It's a great resource, one I definitely recommend!
