• Commit to personal growth as a leader—not just knowledge, but true transformation
• Use tools like DISC and Core Values Coaching to deepen your self-awareness
• Ask for feedback that’s structured, safe, and actionable—especially when under stress
• Set both SMART and HIPE goals to support outcome and process-based growth
• Integrate what you’re learning by connecting it to your Core Values and daily actions
