See differently, see more
In this lesson you will hear from others what they think about your qualities and pitfalls.
To achieve a good result, follow these steps:
Step 1: First write down what you think your qualities are (what you are good at) and what your pitfalls are (what you can improve yourself in). Use your Personal Mastery diary for this.
Step 2: Then work in groups of 4-5 pupils/students, each time focusing on someone else. For each person, write down his or her name on a separate sheet of paper and below that his or her qualities/pitfalls. Indicate why you think this, if possible with concrete examples from practice. Put your own name on this paper so that the person it is about can ask some questions if necessary.
Step 3: Get started with these (new?) insights. Compare the results with the qualities/pitfalls you described yourself. What matches? Where are the differences? What do I learn from this?
Step 4: Write down again what you think your qualities are (what you are good at) and what your pitfalls are (what you can improve on).
Step 5: Share your results/insights/learning process with the others in your group.
