✅ This week’s challenge
After completing the
Ramps + Obstacles worksheet once on your own, before the end of the week, choose
one small adjustment to try in your next interaction. It can be as simple as:
- Pausing before jumping in
- Asking one clarifying question instead of assuming
- Holding back instead of offering an opinion that has already been stated.
Bonus Points: Discuss the Ramps + Obstacles worksheet with your team. If you are at a place of trust where you can speak openly about what you do well and where you struggle, you're one step closer to a healthy, happy team.
Try it. Let me know how it goes.
