What can I do to become a better leader?  Here are six questions to ask yourself.

• Do I give clear direction and guidance and take responsibility for the results?
• Do I share information through open conversations with my team?
• Do I exercise my influence by encouraging and developing others?
• Do I lead an honest life committed to high moral and ethical values even when no one is looking?
• Am I honest about my strengths and my weaknesses and seek out help from others?
• Do I demonstrate self-discipline in managing my emotions and focusing on the team mission?

Tough questions.  Ask them regularly.  Lead well.
