Here's a simple tool for the moments when you feel yourself reacting: THE THREE QUESTIONS 1. What do I know? Separate the facts from the story you're creating. 2. What am I assuming? Notice the meaning or motivation you've assigned. 3. What outcome do I want? Decide what you actually want your response to accomplish. If you still need more information: Ask one more question before making one more statement. Save this one somewhere you can see it. 💬 Which of the three questions do you think you need most often?

💜 We're practicing intentional leadership today! Have you ever responded to a situation and later realized you didn't have the whole story? That's exactly what we're exploring in today's Creating Culture on Purpose Leadership Masterclass. From Reaction to Intention: Clarity Before Correction We'll work through everyday leadership situations and practice three questions: ✨ What do I actually know? ✨ What am I assuming? ✨ What outcome do I want? You'll leave with a practical way to approach difficult conversations, communication breakdowns, and moments when your first reaction may not be your best response. 📅 Today, Monday, October 19 🕛 12:00 PM Central 💻 Live on Zoom There's still time to join us! 👉 Register here: https://www.drstephanieduguid.com/skool-masterclass Clarity before correction. Not clarity instead of correction. Hope to see you there! 💜

Celebrate Friday What went well this week? Share a win, milestone, progress, gratitude, shout-out, or something worth celebrating. Maybe you: ✔️ Had a conversation you'd been putting off ✔️ Asked instead of assumed ✔️ Clarified an expectation ✔️ Recognized someone on your team ✔️ Made progress on something difficult ✔️ Learned something about yourself Or maybe your celebration has nothing to do with leadership. That's welcome too. What's your win this week?

It's time to notice what's working. Share a win, milestone, progress, gratitude, shout-out, or something worth celebrating from your week. And here's an optional October reflection: Did you catch yourself pausing, asking a question, or checking an assumption this week? If so, that counts too. Small leadership shifts are worth noticing. What are we celebrating with you today?

Today, let's get to know the leaders behind the names. Introduce yourself using these three quick prompts: My name is... One group of people I have the opportunity to influence is... One thing leadership is teaching me right now is... Already introduced yourself before? Join us again. Your answer to that last question may be completely different today than it was a few months ago. Then find at least one person's introduction and say hello. Connection doesn't happen because we're in the same community. It happens when we participate in it.
