Self$-$development Paper $(**$full paper due by $10$:$00$ pm $12/11**).$ Develop a paper that $(1)$

explains your analyses process, $(2)$ presents themes from data, and $(3)$ documents your core learnings from the

Reflected Best Self Exercise. Deliverables in Part $1$ should directly feed the self$-$development paper you will

ultimately turn in$.$ I suggest the paper follow the below format:

$2$

$$ Introduction

$$ Initial Perspective on My Strengths

$$ Feedback Process

o Best$-$Self stories from respondents

o Analyses of respondents$$ feedback

o Integration between respondents$$ feedback and my own reflections

$$ Final Best$-$Self Integrated Portrait

$$ Learning & Application

o Which are the enablers and blockers? What is my action plan? How does your best$-$self portrait

correspond with the sorts of things that you spend the bulk of your time doing? What situations

or contexts encourage your best self to emerge? What keeps you from operating at your best

more of the time? How will deeper understanding of your strengths enable you to be a better

employee, team member, manager of processes, and$/$or leader of people? What can you do

differently? What might you consider not doing anymore? Are there certain contexts you can put

yourself in to maximize your potential?

Include all the deliverables from Part $1$ in the Appendix of the final paper. If you feel you want to include any

diagrams or try a very creative way of describing your best$-$self$-$portrait $($e$.$g$.,$ a poem, a picture, a song$),$ but do

not want it to be graded, you can also include it in the appendix
