BEST PRACTICES IN LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT AND ORGANIZATION CHANGE
Exhibit 13.8. Training Content: Exercises Used in Organizational Learning Sessions (Continued)
Session II
Developing Personal Mastery and Vision
Exercise I—Personal Mastery Exercise
This exercise will help you define your personal vision: what you want to create
for yourself and the world around you. This is one positive way to channel the
stress in your life to more rewarding and fulfilling endeavors.
Your Own Personal Vision: Steps in the Process
Step 1: Knowing what you want your life to be
Create your life plan first by knowing why you are here, often called your mis-
sion. Summarize your mission with using one word—your word-in-the-box. In
other words, what “one word” guides you . . . that you want to strive for.
Your word-in-the-box could be service, excellence, teamwork, peace, happiness,
or anything else . . .
Here’s your very own place for your word-in-the-box:
Step 2: Going deeper with our word-in-the box
Think about your word-in-the box and what that word means to you and your
life’s mission or purpose. Picture that word in three different environments:
• At Home/Your Social Life
• At Work
• Within Yourself
What would you need to change in order to bring forth/incorporate your word
even more in each of these three environments?

Step 3: Creating a Result (Begin with the end in mind)
Imagine achieving a result in your life that you deeply desire. Begin with the
question, “What do I really want?” Describe the experience you have imagined
by asking these questions: What does it look like? How does it make me feel?
(proud, significant, successful, other feelings . . .)

Step 4: Describing Your Personal Vision
You will now want to focus on and get clear about the results you want to see in
your life. Here are some questions to help you in this area:
• What do you want to be doing in three years time that you are not doing today?
_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
• What critical skills or “learnings” will you have developed in that time?
_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
• What do you want to contribute (or leave behind) as your legacy?
_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
• What are some concrete, practical steps that you can take to continue to

develop your personal vision?

BEST PRACTICES IN LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT AND ORGANIZATION CHANGE
Exhibit 13.8. Training Content: Exercises Used in Organizational Learning Sessions (Continued)
Take yourself forward in time. It is 2005 and your organization/department is
operating in a healthy, productive, and sustainable way.
–What is going on?
–How is it different?
–Why are we going there?
–How are we going to get there?
–What was it you and others did back in 2002 to achieve this remarkable
transformation?
–What creative tensions need to be resolved in order for this change to happen?
Note: This exercise was expanded upon from Session I and highlighted again in Session II to
reflect changes in thinking and to capture new participants.
Exercise III—Ongoing Personal Mastery Exercise: Do Differently
In order to start to initiate any kind of change, it is necessary to first identify
something that you want to change or do differently in your life. You can start
with a goal that you’ve been wanting to initiate, work on some “irritation” or
challenge that you’ve been experiencing, or just do something in a different way
to stretch your creativity.
This exercise involves three steps.
Step 1: Make some change ...dosomething differently . . . start on some goal.
Describe that experience:

_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
Step 2: Describe any insights you had from your “do differently.”
_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________
Step 3: Can you now transfer those insights to a sustained, on-going practice?
