Initiative in the 21st century includes self-efficacy and the capacity to identify needs and respond proactively. Individuals who exercise initiative show four core sub-competencies: self awareness, learning from both “failure” and “success.” They lead without an official “leader” role or title, motivate others and catalyze necessary action.
