Activity 3.1 | Putting it all together: Linking Theory to Practice

In the first activity of this module, you will reflect on and capture what truly matters to you by revisiting the reflections and insights you developed in Module One and Module Two to help you build a strong foundation for exploring relational leadership and practices in Module Three.

You will reflect on your understanding of an Ethics of Care from Module One, including the key relationships and responsibilities you identified, and you will consider how these ideas shape your perspective on fostering meaningful connections and sustaining ethical practices in your personal and professional life.

You will then recall the visual representation you created to map the influences and relationships that connect you to others, both human and other-than-human, and think about how this mapping informs your understanding of interconnectedness and its role in leadership and care practices.

You will use these reflections to deepen your exploration of relational leadership. Consider as you engage how the values, relationships, and responsibilities you identified in these earlier modules intersect and guide your approach to leadership within your context.

Take time to explore your thoughts, starting from your local/personal context or expanding outward to a broader/global perspective. Engage with this activity deeply, as it will provide a vital foundation for the work ahead in Module Three.
