Your development needs

Are your development needs your weaknesses? No. Because you could have weaknesses you wouldn't bother to develop. Just as you have strategic assets - strengths that are more important than others relative to your goals, your development needs are your strategic weaknesses - those you need to address to achieve your goals. For example, I'm forgetful but addressing this weakness won't help me achieve anything important so it's not a development need for me. What are your feelings about your development needs? If you have received feedback recently, do quiz on handling negative feedback.

• I'm very sensitive about my weaknesses and hate facing them.
• I have a number of self limiting beliefs - see quiz.
• I feel incompetent sometimes, like an impostor - see quiz.
• What former success patterns are now inappropriate? See quiz.
• I'm not aware of having any notable development needs.
• I don't know what my development needs are.
• I know my weaknesses but I don't feel I can change.
• My weaknesses are someone else's problem, not mine.
• Some of my development needs aren't weaknesses. They're just things I haven't learned yet.
• Organizational politics are holding me back - see quiz.
