I am committing to the two following leadership practices:
1. Providing feedback by using the SDI method not only to peers and those I mentor but to those in upper management positions. I’ve already started doing this and has worked out well. Especially using the … ‘ and if … then’ delivery of constructive feedback.
2. Being aware of my DISC assessment and how my strong “S” sometimes appears as being non-decisive or not caring. I’ve also made a point to ask how others want me to communicate with them, for example do they needs facts and figures or is a brief to the point paragraph more along their communication style. This is my attempt to understanding how others want me to communicate with them. Why doesn’t everyone just wear their DISC letter on their sleeve? 
Thanks to Mary for keeping me honest and on top of the assignments!

Great Melinda! How are you seeing success in using SBI and the "and, if . . . then . . ." construct for feedback? What tells you this is working well? And imagine that, actually asking someone what they need! People may be surprised or a bit uncomfortable with this at first, but hopefully they'll view you as sincere. How will you measure this? Best wishes with these LP's!

Funny, I never saw you as non-decisive, but that can be an S trait. So have you had a chance to use any of this? If so how did it work? How are you going to keep focused on these goals? I know you can do it. You are a good and strong leader with a good head on your shoulders.

These are great practices Melinda. I might have to borrow the idea to ask others how others want me to communicate with them.
