Is this something I do on my own?
Yes. This one is personal. You build your own Flawed Leader Guide through honest self-reflection, then share it with your team to open a conversation. There is no team facilitation to run; the work is yours, and the payoff is how much clearer your team is on how to work with you. Your coaching companion works through the reflection with you.
What will I have when I finish?
A completed Flawed Leader Guide: a living document that lays out who you are, how you lead, how you give and receive feedback, and what your team can count on from you. It is yours to share and to evolve as you grow, and it publishes to your own Notion.
What does the kit actually teach?
How to make the implicit explicit across three dimensions of your leadership: Inward (knowing yourself), Outward (how you work with others), and Leadership (your commitments through Support, Guidance, and Empowerment). You will learn to name your style, preferences, and growth areas in a way that builds trust and takes the guesswork out for your team.
How long does it take?
Plan for a few focused sessions rather than one sitting. It is reflective work, so it rewards slowing down. It is self-paced, and you can revisit and update your guide as your leadership evolves.
Do I need anything in place before I start?
No. You only need your own experience and a willingness to reflect honestly. It stands on its own, though it pairs naturally with your leadership norms work if you have done it.
Is this just a "how to work with me" document?
It goes further. A typical "how to work with me" doc lists preferences. Your Flawed Leader Guide pairs that clarity with self-awareness and vulnerability: not just how you operate, but who you are and what you are learning. It is built to deepen trust and partnership, not just set logistics.
Do I need to be a new or senior leader for this to be useful?
Neither. It is valuable at any level. New leaders use it to start clear; experienced leaders use it to name what has gone unspoken. Because it is a living document, it grows with you rather than being a one-time exercise.
