Do Your Best
Do Your Best is a set of activities that demonstrates the key
principles of setting direction in an organization, group, or team.
The short, five-to-fifteen minute activities provide an active,
stimulating means of uncovering the crucial principles of setting
mission, vision, and goals.
Overview
 Do Your Best contains three modules - one for mission, one for
vision, and one for goal setting. Each module contains six to seven
activities in which participants use acrylic blocks to build walls.
The facilitator can use any or all of the activities depending on
time constraints and the particular needs for the training group.
Each activity demonstrates a different direction-setting principle
and can be run independently of the other activities. Each module,
taken as a whole, builds to the point of having participants craft
their own direction piece (vision, mission, or set of goals).
How It Works
The original Do Your Best exercise was developed as an
experiential means of teaching well-researched goal-setting
principles. The intent was to give participants a hands-on
experience that was involving and fun yet demonstrated how goals
should be set.
The same involving aspects of Do Your Best that make it appropriate
for teaching goal setting also make it appropriate for teaching mission
and vision construction. Participants discover the principles
through participation in activities rather than through lecture
using the three activity modules included in the Do Your Best
game.
