Rewarding Relationships

Cultivating Safe Spaces is rooted in the foundational work of self understanding and self reflection. You can’t cultivate safe spaces, if you aren’t one. These are some excellent questions to ask anyone working on a team from a place of struggle and feeling stuck in the cycle.

Internal self-awareness

What emotions are you experiencing?
What are you assuming about another person or the situation?
What are the facts vs. interpretations?
What are your core values, and how might they be impacting your reactions?

External self-awareness

What are you doing in team meetings that is helpful?
What are you doing that is not helpful?
If you could change one part of how you interact with the team, what would it be?

Take personal responsibility and a collaborative approach to problem solving.

A friendly reminder from the International Coaching Federation, to check in with yourself, and your energy and plan to recharge before the battery is empty. It’s not selfish, it’s human care, required to continue the important work you do. ❤️
