Lesson 11 Appreciating Our Own Filters
Activity Being able to describe what is important to you, helps how you fit within the cultures you find yourself in; where there is alignment, where there is a need to negotiate. This is important as you set the culture for your team. As Simon Sinek outlines in his book Start with Why; there can be individual, team, and organisational whys. Whilst this ideally aligns with the culture we find ourselves in, it needs to reflect the different people, experiences, beliefs, and rituals that are found across an organisation.
