17. Journal reflections: Anna concluded that " I plan to revisit this chart. I realized that although there are six stages marked on the sheet, the process of developing myself as a leader never really ends. I hope that by viewing this information from time to time and evaluating my growth in different groups and organizations, I can continue to grow in new ways.” Molly said, " By looking at the leadership identity development model, I discovered that I am a level three out of six for my leadership abilities. This means that I am identifying the skills that I need to be a good leaders, while getting things done and managing others."
