✨ Activity: Exploring My Community Resource Map

Play to Your Strengths

Values

Activity: List your top 5 core values. Choose one and write a short story showing how you relied on it.

Example: If applying to Royal Roads—known for caring, creativity, and courage—share a story from school or work that highlights one or more of these values.

These stories will support your job search and networking efforts.

Story Tip:
Keep it simple: beginning, middle, and end.

Reflection Questions:

  • How do your values shape how you build community?
  • Who in your network shares your values?
  • What organizations reflect your values?
  • How do you handle value differences?
  • Which values matter most in your work life?
