I have had many chances to figure out what my leadership skills are through sports, jobs, and group projects. But I think my most important skill that I have is my Emotional Intelligence, i used this skill all the time when I was in my mangement position this summer. When talking to my employees I needed to understand their moods and how they think and feel this way when I talk to them I can relate to them and I can get my point across without being over emotional. Also when I speak to large group such as a sports team or class I can get the attention of the people through my social skills. I find myself being able to relate and become friends with anyone.
I think my weakest leadership skill is my abilty to be well informed. I am very lazy when it comes to finding information whether its for my work or school. This past summer I would put off getting the information that my superiors wanted from me. I would most likely wait till the last minute and do a half ass job. So I need to work on my abilty to get my information.

I would say my weakest leadership skill would be the abiltiy to be well informed. I am also very lazy when it comes to finding information but after my intership I realized that I really needed to stay on top of the information that is giving to me to be able to do a good job. I had a few experinces where i should have known something when I didn't and it created some embarrassing moments.
I also agree with you guys. Staying well informed is not an easy thing to do, especially when you are not a very organized person. I think the key to being and staying well informed is organization. If you are organized then it will be that much easier for you to be informed.
In support of your leadership
"When talking to my employees I needed to understand their moods and how they think and feel" is very hard for any person to figure out. I have worked for Friendly's for almost six years and I still can't figure out my managers moods. Being able to understand someone is a very important quality when being a leader. With your ability to figure out how to talk to someone, makes me feel that your the perfect fit for a leader. It means that you actually care about others emotions and feelings besides your own. With my dedication and commitment to a team I feel we could make a strong team and get rid of your weak spot as a leader. If everyone is commited to a group then you as a leader will not have to worry about finding information because everyone will be able to help out.
