Build your CQ
T+D, August, 2003
Practice this exercise to enhance your courage quotient: Recall a specific moment in your work life when you were proud of yourself. Maybe you finally confronted the supervisor who always be-rated you in front of others, or perhaps you committed to learning a new skill that benefited your career. Relive that experience, and determine the specific behavior you used that made the difference. That was your courage at work!
Think of a recent time when courage wasn't called upon, when you didn't act decisively. That was a missed opportunity that can never be reclaimed. Think about how the outcome could've been different if you'd acted with courage.
State your intent to claim your courage. Write it down and post it prominently. Keep asking, Am I acting courageously?
