I love this perspective. When I consider my trajectory, the people I admire, respect, and ultimately seek to emulate have most influenced the values and principles I’ve adopted as my version of showing up.
I was drawn based on watching their actions and behaviors: how they lead, how they treat people, how they communicate, how they handle themselves in various community settings, etc.
This is a very insightful post, thank you. We can all bias towards qualities we have.
I am reminded of a great leader's advice I once got around checking their own biases (because we can gravitate to those we admire naturally): pick a few of the people who didn't make it in the hiring process and line up interviews with them. Great way to check your bias for building teams. Diverse interview panels are great too.
Great post!This values exercise isn’t only foundational for leaders—but also essential to get buy in and integration of core values throughout the organization. A great conversation on this—“Values as Verbs,” an episode of the At the Table with Patrick Lencioni podcast that discusses the importance of operationalizing core values in an organization.

Challenge accepted! Thanks for helping me come up with my next post.

Were you initially drawn to these individuals because of values? or behaviors? or something else?

Did you initially hear about this practice as being something used for a bias check?
Or was there another reason this was being recommended to do?

If you say it, it's only words. If they say it, they own it. Always use questions.
Always?
