Values in action

How will the things you value the most influence your behaviour? That’s your values in action.

Read back over the list of “non-negotiables” you created in the previous activity. These are your values. 

You’ll probably find the list contains a lot of descriptive words (you might have words like “kind,” “sustainable,” “accountable,” etc). Now, for each of those values, see if you can attach a behaviour to it.

So for example, if one of your values is “Sustainable,” you might write, “I will only use reusable or recyclable packaging.” Or if one of your values is “Helpful,” you might write, “I will always share my processes and suppliers,” or, “I will answer every question as quickly and fully as possible.” 

Create behaviours to go with each of your values (your “non-negotiables” from the previous activity) in your workbook on page 8. Use the deal-breakers too, if you want to.
