What Patterns Will You Notice, ?

Howdy ,

Yesterday, I shared why personal values are the foundation of effective leadership.

Today, I want to give you a practical way to start identifying yours.

Here's a simple 5-minute exercise that someone who applied it calls "the game-changer":

Step 1: Think of a time at work when you felt most energized and fulfilled. What were you doing? What values were you honoring?

Step 2: Now think of a time when you felt drained or frustrated at work (beyond just being tired). What values were being violated?

Step 3: Write down the patterns you notice.

Imagine a department head who realized that her most fulfilling moments came when she was helping team members solve complex problems together. Her most frustrating moments were when she had to make decisions in isolation without input from her team.

This helped her identify one of her core values: "Collaborative problem-solving."

From there, she created a value statement: "I create opportunities for the team to tackle challenges together because our collective wisdom is always stronger than any individual perspective."

Try this exercise today. What patterns do you notice?

P.S. Want to dive deeper? Our upcoming workshop will help you transform these insights into a complete leadership framework. Interested? Be on the lookout.

And keep winning at work and in life
