Problem: Each of us has a strongly held beliefs, values, passions and traditions which contribute to the lenses through which we see the world and to our ways of being in the world. Select one of these that reflects or contributes to who you are, how you live your life or how you fit in the world. Your selection must be substantive and significant in your life.
In a 3-5 minute presentation, tell us:
- What is the belief, value, passion or tradition
- Why is it important to you
- How does it influence your life
- What should we know about it that will help us better understand you as an individual
The purpose of this exercise is two-fold. When you are the presenter, it will provide an opportunity for you, in a group setting, to practice talking about something meaningful to you. When you are in the audience, it will provide an opportunity for you to practice your deep listening skills and ask questions to gain understanding.
