Please give an example of how you have taken ownership of your personal development or have

encouraged and supported the development of others. What was the situation? What did you do?

What was the outcome?

If anyone can help me with this question I’d be most grateful thanks.

I took my career in my hands. My life, especially my career was going nowhere. I had the qualification and talent, but still I was lagging behind. So, I just got a grip of my life and decided to change my whole working manner. Started putting in more hours and worked with goals in my mind.

The outcome is that I got two promotions and increments in less than 2 year :)

  1. Pretzel Said,

    I had depression.

    I was lucky and got good advice and therapy, and learned that you cannot change other people, you can change only yourself. So that’s what you do: alter your attitude, take responsibility for how you are (ownership of your own personal development).

    For example, unhappy with my marriage cos my husband was rotten. So I can’t make HIM be nice, so what I can do is either leave him or stay with him but if I do the latter, then recognize that’s my decision so my responsibility, not something someone else ‘made’ me do. So if I’m still unhappy, that’s my choice! In which case, maybe it’s a pretty stupid choice!! In which case, do something about it. Whatever, it’s MY choice so my decision and my responsibility
