Self-Development

Self-Development may also be called Self-Actualization (Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs) or Self-Efficacy. It is about what the Washington Irving once said “Let Each Become All S/He is Capable of Being”. Dr. Deming addressed it in his Point #13: Institute a Vigorous Program of Education and Self-Improvement.

Self-Development has 7 elements:

1. Self-Awareness and Self-Acceptance
2. Self-Responsibility
3. Personal Values and Principles
4. Personal Mission and Vision
5. Time Management: Acting on One’s Commitments
6. Authentic Behaviors with Others (Genuiness/Realness)
7. Self-Appraisal: Continuous Renewal and Change

The Self-Development process culminates in an Employee Training and Development Roadmap which the individual and his/her supervisor are mutually committed to and responsible for.
