Self improvement exercise

Self improvement exercise

Part # 1 3-4 people get together, for example on Skype or around a table.

Part # 2 Each person writes down his or her 3 biggest strengths.

Part # 3 Each person writes down 1 practice / behaviour / skill that he/she wants to improve and also writes down what the results of this improvement will be.

Part # 4 Each person communicates – to the others - the 1 practice / behaviour / skill he/she wants to improve and what the results of this improvement will be.

3 examples

When I get better at improving the way meetings are done, I can use my time more efficiently.

When I get better at discovering my values, I will know even more about who I am and what is really important to me.

When I get better at finding out what the purpose of this company is, I can create even more value for more people.

Part # 5 After each person has had a chance to express what he / she would like to improve, round # 2 starts.
