Managing yourself - Deepstash

Managing yourself

A great manager needs to get a deep knowledge of their strengths, values, comfort zones, blind spots, and biases. If you don't know how to manage yourself, you won't have a good handle on how to best support your team.

Questions to help you understand yourself:

  • How would people close to me describe me in three words?
  • What three qualities of myself am I the proudest of?
  • The top three pieces of positive feedback I've received?
  • What does my inner critic constantly tell me?
  • Can I name three common feedbacks on how I could be more effective?
