Dream Team Mapping

COMMUNICATION & RELATIONSHIPS TOOLS

Identify the people who inspire, challenge, and support you - and map your network intentionally.

Where This Tool Helps

Most people accumulate their support network by accident. The people who end up playing key roles - mentors, thought partners, accountability partners, encouragers - often got there through proximity rather than intention. This worksheet asks you to step back and look at who is actually in your circle, and whether that matches who you need.

The "dream team" concept is not about perfection. It is about intentionality. A strong support network for a leader typically includes people who see your blind spots, people who have done what you want to do, people who will tell you uncomfortable truths, and people who genuinely believe in you. Most networks are heavy in one or two of those categories and thin in the others.

The steps below help you map what exists and notice what is missing.

How to Use This Worksheet

  1. Write a name (or initials) for a person who plays a key role in your development or support. Don't limit yourself to professional relationships.
  2. Note what role they play - mentor, challenger, encourager, thought partner, sponsor.
  3. After filling in all five, look at the roles represented. Which roles appear more than once? Which are missing?
  4. Bring the missing roles to your next session. The question is not "who should I add?" but "what kind of relationship do I need and where might I find it?"
