Punt Kick — Shaping DEI Competency — Dora Küntzel

View Original

You need to first know better before you do better

How do I naturally show up?

How do I expect people to behave?

What is my response if people behave differently to what I expected?

 

You need to first know better before you do better *

 Self-awareness is a key skill of #dei competence.

 It allows us to:

 pause

 … to read the room and take clues from how someone behaves

process

 … situations that induce our fear, anxiety or anger

respond

… rather than react

 

*Paraphrasing the quote by Maya Angelou „Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better”
