Self-AssessmentGet to Know Yourself
Start your journey by understanding yourself and your relationship with your community and your world. Being simply true to yourself is not enough. You are one but only one, surrounded by your family, friends, and the world at large. Innovation needs to start with you, but involves more than you. Leave the “I” behind and start thinking about “We.”
