Values

Values

This is my version of a values exercise. Please feel free to use it.
In: Values, Naming Your Needs, archive

Figuring out my values has been really important to both my personal and professional life. Originally, I used the list provided by Brené Brown in her book Dare to Lead but I found that list to be incomplete (she names this as well). My dear friend Heather Mack and I added close to 100 new options. Below you’ll find the non-exhaustive list that is included as a part of Color Your Needs. If you’d like an easier version to copy and paste, you can find that here.
