What Matters to You?

Who I Am, Who I Was

“It’s no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then.” Lewis
Carroll

If you had one chance to go back in time to make changes in the past, would you? Why (not)? Are the

values you have nowadays the same as the ones you used to have 10 years ago?

This Is What We Need

Some classes ago, you studied about Mission and Vision, and you also reflected upon your own personal vision
statement. Now, it is time for you to think of an ideal business that would make the difference in your city, in
your country, or even in the world. What kind of business would meet yours and other people’s beliefs and
needs? Gather with your classmates and follow the instructions.

Mention:

• What the group considers important in life.

• The common values the members of the group have.
• The routine of this ideal company in simple terms, such as what it shares online, how it helps somehow etc.
• Why you believe this dream company would be important to your city / country / the world.
• Compare this company to other companies you know.
• What the company would do to make the difference if it really existed.
• What difference the company would have made if it had started its business before.
Presentations

Now, it is time to share the ideas you came up with. Be prepared to answer the questions posed by your teacher
and your classmates!
 Opportunities for Growth

Companies, people… Everyone will be at a situation at some point in which mistakes were made,
and this is inevitable. The point is: How do you see mistakes? Some are afraid of them; others deal
with them pretty well. What I can tell you is… if we see mistakes as opportunities, we learn to make
the best out of every moment in life!

Your teacher is going to share misuses and mistakes made in the previous activity. In
groups, correct them and take notes on what you learned from them.
