Let's Do the Challenging Ones activity

Reflect on aspects of Our Volunteering Culture that your team can improve upon

Quick links

If your team needs a light refresher on Our Volunteering Culture, share the link ahead of the activity.

Each Team Member draws circles on Our Volunteering Culture next to bullet statements they feel are the team’s strongpoints.
Identify the bullet statements with the fewest circles. Reflect on what can be done to strengthen these areas, as a team.
The conversation should be kept on the team level and any steps for improvement (big or small) need to be owned as a team.

For more nuance, instead of circles, Team Members assign a value (1 = low, 2 = OK, 3 = high) to the bullet statements.
For even more detail, Team Members assign values (or circles) on two separate printouts of the Our Volunteering Culture. The first assesses the team as a whole, the second reflects their own performance.
This generates two assessments through different lenses. Compare how members see the team as a whole and themselves as part of it.

This activity reflects on sharing, as a team, the task of constantly improving.
