Create Your Leadership Vision in Four Simple Steps

Creating a vision for your leadership career can bring many benefits. In this post you'll learn how to create your vision using my simple four-step method. 

If you'd like to read more about the benefits having a vision can bring to your leadership career, check out my post Can A Vision Really Help My Leadership Career?

Creating your vision is all about you, and you are certainly the expert on this topic! Despite this, it can be challenging to know where to start. 

To spark your creativity, I've created a process for you to create your leadership vision in four simple steps.

Details for each of the steps can be found inside each of the four tabs below. And there is a bonus option to download your own workbook at the bottom of this post too!

  1. 1
    My Values
  2. 2
    Building My Story
  3. 3
    Shaping My Vision - Exploring My 'Why'
  4. 4
    My Vision - Writing It Down
  • 1. My values

  • 2. my Story

  • 3. My 'Why'

  • 4. My Vision

My Values

The first question you need to ask yourself is, "What are my values?"

These are principles such as honesty, kindness, integrity that may be common to most people, as well as some others that might be more specific to you such as, excellence in engineering, inclusive work environment, ability to travel, ability to have flexible time with my role.

Start by brainstorming a list of your values, and then narrow the list down to 6-12 that are most important for your leadership journey vision.

In this simple four-step process for creating your vision, you will i) explore your values, ii) your leadership story so far, and your future dreams, hopes, and desires, iii) your reasons for 'why' all of these are important to you, and then iv) you will be ready to write a sentence or short paragraph describing your leadership vision.

Creating Vision in 4 Steps

Although this process describes creating your leadership vision, you can repeat the exercise to develop your personal life vision, and perhaps at a future point in time, you can work to create your Big Vision that incorporates everything into one.

I do believe that creating your vision will bring you great clarity, purpose, and motivation for your leadership career, and life in general. I also believe it is important to come back from time to time to review your vision.  

As your life and career unfold and change, you want to be sure that your vision continues to complement your latest plans well.

Supporting you on your leadership journey,
