Self-Assessment can be self-driven, meaning it is done without the aid of a professional.

Either way you will have to be honest to learn about that person that faces you in the mirror; and it is helpful to have someone to assist you on this journey.

Key Elements:

1. Define the purpose of the Self-Assessment

2. Be honest with yourself:

          -Define your skills, values and personal characteristics

3. Look in the mirror-your personality is based on your experiences

4. Use Journal Notes. Write down your emotions, actions, thoughts and lessons learned.

           -Journals are about thoughts and reflections and not daily events.

5. Evaluate the content on your own or with a coach (in some cases in a team session)
