Burns Leadership Consulting

Before We Begin: A Reflection, Not a Test

Take a few quiet minutes with this before the session. There are no right answers and no scores. This is anonymous. The only purpose is to notice where you and your department are today with a set of leadership practices, and to bring your real situation into the room.

Department (optional). This helps us see patterns by area. No name is asked.

How to mark the spectrum. For each practice, pick where you notice yourself and your department landing right now. This is a spectrum of noticing, not a grade.
1 just starting to notice this · 2 happens sometimes, not by design · 3 solid in places, uneven overall · 4 a consistent habit · 5 a real strength we could teach

A few things to get curious about

Think of a recent problem in your area. Where did it get stuck, at seeing it, framing it, owning it, or finishing it?

What is one problem you can feel forming right now that has not fully surfaced yet?

When one of your people brings you a problem, what do you usually do first?

Anonymous. Nothing here is shared or attributed. It only tunes the session.

Thank you.

Your reflection is in. Come to the session with one real problem currently on your desk, something not yet resolved. See you there.
