The Self-Discovery and Character Traits Toolkit

From Recognition to Integration: 3 Essential Practices

"Self-discovery through character exploration isn't just about understanding your traits—it's about recognising the patterns that reveal your core needs, values, and sustainable approaches to professional success."

This free toolkit provides three practical exercises designed to help you deepen self-awareness through your character traits and use that understanding to guide meaningful professional decisions:

1. The Character Patterns Recognition Exercise: Guides you to identify recurring themes across your character trait expressions, revealing core insights about your authentic approach to work and relationships.
2. The Values-Traits Alignment Guide: Helps you understand which personal values drive your character trait development and how alignment between values and traits creates sustainable success.
3. The Ongoing Self-Discovery Practice: Provides approaches for maintaining continuous self-awareness as your character traits evolve across different life stages and professional contexts.

Throughout the toolkit, examples from professionals engaged in self-discovery work illustrate how character trait exploration becomes a powerful tool for understanding professional direction and making aligned decisions.

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.
