Your Friday Fuel is designed to bring focus to how you reflect on the week that was.
In addition to the big questions such as -
- What am I proud of?
- Where am I challenged?
- What do I need to change up for next week, here are 3 questions that relate to our focus this week.
Use these practical, informal (but a bit uncomfortable!) questions to challenge yourself to lead more authentically, drawing on the spirit of our blog Real Leadership Starts Where Performing Ends.
- When was the last time I held back something real - a thought, story, or feeling - because I worried it “wasn’t what a leader should share”? What might have changed if I’d let myself be more open in that moment?
- Is there a habit, script, or “leadership move” I’m doing just because I think I’m supposed to? What’s one thing I’d try differently if I trusted that my way was enough?
- If a new team member joined tomorrow, what’s one story about my own journey, doubts, or values I could share to set the tone for a more honest and human team culture?
Take a few minutes to journal these reflections, or use them to kick off a real conversation with a colleague or mentor.
