This guide is safe to explore on your own and presents an opportunity to create a safer workplace experience. It may also serve as a calling to invite our highest selves to the table, examine our individual fears, and make personal discoveries. It is a mere jumping-off point for self-reflective work. We invite you to use this as a template to practice engaging safely and productively in group conversations.
These are not questions meant to prompt ‘correct’ answers, but open-ended questions that begin the process of self-reflection: the root from which true allyship stems and develops. These 21 self-reflective questions can be read out loud, reviewed quietly, written down for future reflection, or acknowledged one at a time as part of a 21-day challenge.
Digesting one self-reflection per day as part of a 21-day challenge begins with a simple agreement each morning: “I agree to reflect on the next question today.” When all 21 questions have been examined, you may repeat the process again front the top, starting with question 1.
As Dr. Brené Brown said, “Our job is to excavate the unsaid. Brave leaders are never silent around hard things.”
