Note from the Author:

Have you been on a team where you spend so much time together but don’t know what’s actually happening in the backdrop of your teammates’ lives? Have you become an expert at avoiding things you don’t want to confront within yourself and with others? What happens when you get people to talk about what they’ve never talked about before in highly competitive environments?

Two things we’ve seen: first, people immediately feel like they’re not alone because almost always others in the room can relate, which usually turns out to be surprising for both parties. Second, everybody is going through something. When people share what’s actually happening in their lives, often the reaction from the room is, “How did I not know that about you? I had no idea.” When you understand more, you connect better.

And that’s what this book is designed to help you do. We’ve created 365 thought-provoking questions to unlock clarity for you and connection within your team by taking you beyond the surface level on the path
toward self-awareness.
