  1. For our first reading, we are looking at the ways authenticity affects decision making in the work world. What are your thoughts on whether your own authenticity comes through in your work life? How do you show your values through work decisions and interactions?

    1. I bring my values to work every day, but I don’t think I’m good at explaining those values. So if I make a decision because I value teamwork, I don’t always share that openly and clearly with my team. And I think that can add confusion on why I make certain decisions sometimes.

      1. I love this insight. I definitely don’t explain work decisions in the realm of values. I probably explain in terms of budgets or time frames or management needs, but I rarely talk about the human aspect of these decisions.

        1. Yes. And every decision involves either a human value or a human cost, and in the rush of meeting corporate goals, whether it’s budget or something else, it’s easy to forget about the human and personal aspect of decisions.

      2. Great observation. Why do you think you don’t share your values as part of explaining a decision? Is it uncomfortable because it feels too personal? Is it something you need to “train” yourself to do?

    2. I’m interested in thinking about this more, but I imagine my values infuse everything I do. I don’t think my approach to anything is rigid, so my values spill into all aspects of life. That said, I certainly do things differently at work. I don’t act as much on instinct as I do in my personal life, and maybe this means that the values of the company are superseding my own values. I’m not sure.
