The Character Traits and Wellbeing Toolkit

From Awareness to Sustainable Success: 3 Essential Practices

"True wellbeing in your WorkLife isn't about WorkLife balance—it's about WorkLife alignment - aligning your work with character traits that energise rather than deplete you, creating sustainable success that honours who you authentically are."

This free toolkit provides three practical exercises designed to help you understand the relationship between your character traits and your professional wellbeing, using trait awareness to create more sustainable approaches to work:

1. The Character-Energy Connection Exercise: Guides you to recognise which character traits sustain your energy and which create depletion, helping you design work approaches that support rather than undermine your wellbeing.
2. The Boundaries Through Character Practice: Helps you establish and maintain healthy boundaries by understanding which of your character traits need protection and which situations threaten trait suppression.
3. The Sustainable Success Framework: Provides a structure for building professional practices that honour your character traits whilst meeting work demands, creating long-term sustainability rather than short-term coping.

Throughout the toolkit, examples from professionals who have connected character awareness to wellbeing practices illustrate how understanding your traits can transform your approach to sustainable success.

This resource stands alone as a practical tool, with deeper exploration available in School of WorkLife's The Longest Way Round: A Journey of Character.
