For me, Leadership settled in quickly. I am an athlete coach, so the mindset of making the people around you better at what they do is a lifestyle. Leadership has given me a much more confident voice in many situations. I do not second guess myself as much, but I can always work on that. Leadership has helped me bridge the gap between older generations and the more recent ones. Networking is another skill I have grown to love that Project Management deals with.

Delegation is definitely a skill I need to work on. Indecisiveness is an issue I deal with. I think it stems from my lack of maturity as a PM. Although my personal choices ten to be mature in a sense that I do my best to not act naive, I do not have enough experience as a PM to make constant "good" decisions.

This all takes time Brendon and all requires lots of experience. It will come but at least it is impressive that you know what you need to work on. Good Luck.

I find that I can steer a conversation pretty well. The issue is that sometimes I over-speak and steer it in the wrong direction! ha. Also, what are some actions you take to steer a conversation? Do you mean hand motions and such? Or do you mean with interactive things like paper prototypes.

Talent acquisition interests me. As a coach I love guys like Bill Belichik who can go out and find guys who no one else wanted. Yet, they are the hardest workers and have no problem shining on his team. Do you have any experiences you wouldn't mind sharing? I would love to learn from it

No manager can always make good decisions. Good decision making comes with experience and experience also comes from wrong decisions. So keep learning and get better every day.
I personally think leadership (ownership) and communication as the very base of project management. Because when you own something you strive to make it a success. And communication because PM cannot be done in isolation, it requires great deal of efforts to take everybody together and succeed Saving Changes...

Steering with experience and knowledge that potentially can influence the direction of a discussion, decision, or effort.
