Before you start, some food for thought: Research has shown that there is not a set of professional values and personal values. We only have one set. We don’t shift our values based on context.
From the list below, choose and write down every core value that resonates with you. Do not overthink your selections. As you read through the list, simply write down the words that feel like a core value to you personally. If you think of a value you possess that is not on the list, be sure to write it down as well.
