Interactive exercise 4: Responsibility Pie Charts 1- We can sometimes overestimate or underestimate how responsible we are for an event, feeling that ‘it’s my fault’ or even ‘It’s all somebody else’s fault’. Identify a negative situation that has troubled you. Situation: My client did not complete their homework task. 2- Now list all those people, or factors that played a part, no matter how small, in the situation. List people, circumstances, organisation
INSERT TEXT HERE:
3- Now divide the Responsibility Pie into slices, giving each person, circumstance, or organisation a percentage or slice. Give bigger slices to those with more responsibility. Put yourself last.
