PART I: RECENT PERSONAL FAILURE THAT WAS A GIFT IN HINDSIGHT
An important part of Challenging the Process is to try new things, create new opportunities, experiment, and learn from mistakes. Things don’t always go as planned or as we hope, but there are great lessons we can learn from our failures.
Think about something that you failed at (didn’t get a job or promotion, failed relationship, didn’t achieve a personal goal, etc.) that turned out to be a blessing, a gift, or good thing in hindsight. It can be related to any part of your life – family, school, work, or community.
1) What was the failure?
2) Why did it turn out to be a good thing in hindsight?
3) What did you learn from the experience?
PART II: THE POWER OF QUESTIONS
Challenge the Process also focuses on seeking new and innovative ways to change, grow and improve. Successful leaders look for new ways all the time and challenge themselves to move beyond the status quo.
Leaders have to be good at listening and observing what is going on around them. Using questions is a great way to get the information you need to create, innovate, grow, and improve but leaders are often reluctant to use them. A leader often believes that as the person in charge, he or she is supposed to have all the answers and should not ask for the answers.
But questions have many benefits such as:
1) What is a leadership challenge that you have in your life – it can be work, a school project, or anything where you are experiencing difficulty with others and are trying to find a solution.
2) Watch Steve Aguirre’s TED Talk on “The Power of Questions” to help you with #3 and #4 below.
3) Next develop the following questions to help you do a better job LISTENING and OBSERVING about this issue. To whom will you ask the questions?
Question begins with … The Question To whom will you ask?
HOW
WHY
WHAT
WHERE
TO WHAT EXTENT
WHEN
WHO
4) Are there other questions you would like to ask? Remember use questions as a way to learn and to get buy in from others. Often questions work better than telling someone what to do.
5) How can your questions help you with your leadership challenge (from #1).
