Reflection & Discussion Questions
Presented by Sam Miller
- As an individual, how can you constructively question your unexamined assumptions about categorizing yourself and others?
- What categories do you use to describe yourself? What categories do you use to describe others?
- How can societies avoid the dangers of stereotyping? How can societies and cultures seed and employ full-spectrum thinking in order to make the future a better place and space?
- As an organization, how can you categorize mindfully and in ways that draw out the best in people rather than boxing them in? How can you consider a broader range of business and social value that you might deliver?
