DSIL 2021 Executive Course Leadership Mirror
Uncovering blind spots is a key part for people seeking to grow, and we know we can't grow alone, but rather in  relationship with others. This survey will take about 10 minutes and will help me see the parts of me that I may not be able to, yet. I encourage you to be as truthful as you can because I know that all the things that you might have thought, felt, or sensed during our time together is valid. Thank you for trusting me to listen, and I will.

Sometimes, we need to compost things (behaviors, language, beliefs, mindsets) in us so that it can become soil for new growth.
What is something you think/sense/feel about me that I need to compost (let die) that would help me blossom into my next evolution? *
The world is full of empty collaboration, but now is the time to increase how many voices are at the table and how many people are creating and experimenting more than ever. We are all wise, smart, and ready for change.
What do you think/sense/feel that I cannot see in myself that brings life to others and inspires people around me to collaborate in meaningful ways? *
Can you give me one example of when you have seen this strength? *
How would you suggest I amplify that to help me move beyond surviving and more into thriving? *
The world is working to move from controlling a garden, as in the illustration above, to one that can thrive and be more alive. How can we learn to allow the hard things, the messy things, in so that we learn and grow with those, too? Not to mention, they are just as much a part of life as everything else, and that's okay!
Is there something you could tell me that might encourage me to build more environments like the bottom picture (above) in my life and/or work? *
DSIL teaches that the leaders who are able to catalyze the people around them to create change need to learn how to hold many tensions and truths at one time. Radical Responsibility speaks to the ability to take ownership for one's actions and behaviors as well as responsibility for challenges that may not be their own. Radical Collaboration is all about inviting as many people as we can find into solving problems, especially people who are not like us. Honestly Sharing speaks to telling our truths and being vulnerable in what we say, thereby giving permission for others to do the same. Actually Listening speaks to listening to the perspectives of others from their point of view, and allowing empathy to be a part of the way we live and work, not just a skill we pull out from time to time! Below, I will ask you a few questions about myself to have a stronger view of who I am (right now) in those areas.
Which element of the tensions chart above do you feel/think/sense I need to grow in the most? *
Can you share a specific time when you saw me feel challenged or fail in this way? *
If you were 10x bolder, what else would you share with me to guide my growth? Bring it! *
Anything else you would like me to know?
