Imagine that after a night with minimal sleep, you arrive at an important team meeting. What will you do first?

Select an answer:

I carefully sit down in the corner and observe the happenings. I will start talking to get going and cover up the fatigue. I am trying to adopt a stance so that no one finds out that I am sleep-deprived. I turn off my mind, waiting for it to pass. I hope someone will "pull me along" and support me.

How do you envision an ideal morning after a night without proper sleep?

Select an answer:

Silence, routine, nobody wants anything from me. Adrenaline and challenges that wake me up. A conversation with someone who will energize me. Canceled meetings and coffee in silence. I just want to disappear and not deal with anything.

Your colleague is making mistakes because he is exhausted. How do you respond?

Select an answer:

I notice it, but I remain silent. I will warn him, but with humor. I will take over his duties without a word. In my mind, I cross him off as unreliable. I decide that I would rather not communicate together today.

Select an answer:

I would give them my full trust, even though I have no idea what is happening. I would suggest postponing the decision. I would start analyzing, even if it took me an eternity. I would react instinctively, without thinking. I would focus on appearing to be fine.

Sleep in your life is...

Select an answer:

Unnecessary luxury when there is a lot of work. Tool for performance that I am planning. A ritual without which I am falling apart. Something that I often postpone for later. Escape from reality when there is too much.

When you feel tired and your team is in a crisis, what do you feel?

Select an answer:

Immense responsibility and exhaustion at the same time. Helplessness of not being able to help. Anger at myself for allowing this to happen. I'll suppress everything and go "on autopilot." I will focus on what I can influence here and now.

How do you perceive people who prioritize sleep?

Select an answer:

They have clarity within themselves, I envy them a bit. They appear weak when the going gets tough. Responsible, but less flexible. Too comfortable, life doesn't work that way. Masters of balance, I would like to be like them.

Which image represents you the most during a sleepless workday?

Select an answer:

Sailboat in the fog without wind. A gardener who forgot what he is planting. Conductor without a score. A climber who is going only by inertia. An actor who forgot the lines but continues to perform.

Imagine that you have to lead a meeting after a night without sleep. How would you describe it?

Select an answer:

A challenge that will test my character. A scene where I am just pretending to be present. A game where I improvise based on the reactions of others. A mission where I decide without emotions. Chaos that I will only survive.

What would you most like to say to your future self regarding sleep?

Select an answer:

Don't underestimate him, otherwise, he'll make you pay for it. Even heroes need sleep. Stop before something stops you. I don't need much, but I need it to be of good quality. Everything works when you have balance.
