Using Fears as a Resourcefor Learning and Leverage
• How do you honor the wisdom in the value and fears of the other person/group/organization – and help them to see blind spots?
• How do you share your own values and fears in ways that can be heard by others, while being open to your own blind spots?
• How do you identify/create the Greater Purpose Statement that unites values?

Leveraging—Conference Challenge!
1) Look for and document Action Steps that empower one or both upsides.
• What can we appreciate/celebrate about what we’re already doing well?
2 What new actions will supplement and enhance our future performance?
• Watch for the “high-leverage” Action Steps that empower Continuity and Transformation
3) Look for and document measureable Early Warning Signs that tell you as early as possible that you are getting into the downsides.
