Module 1 Reflection Guide
This Module 1 Reflection Guide is meant to help support how you’re processing the materials from both the Pioneers in Practice Kick-Off Retreat and from Module 1. While it’s not required to complete or submit, these questions to ponder will continue to build self-awareness, which is the first essential competency of leadership.

1. Noticing Leadership
- Where do you already notice yourself leading — formally or informally?
- What parts of leadership feel most natural to you right now?
2. Watching Your Values in Action
(No need to name or rank them again.)
- In your recent work or life, when have you felt most aligned?
- When have you felt tension, discomfort, or fatigue that might be connected to values?
- What situations tend to energize you — and which tend to drain you?
(These are often clues about values at work.)
3. Mission Touchpoint
(Look briefly at your personal mission statement.)
- Where do you see your mission showing up in how you care for others or make decisions?
- Does leadership feel supportive of your mission right now — or does it feel stretched?
4. Leading From Where You Are
- When things are hard, how do you want to show up as a leader?
- What kind of leadership feels sustainable in this season of your life?

- When I lead, what matters most to me is…
- Right now, leadership for me looks like…
- The kind of leader I want to be in difficult moments is…
