Leadership Tip
What is Your Protected Root Zone?
A friend researched relocating a tree in her
yard. She was told that she had to consider its Protected Root
Zone (PRZ) before relocating. In order to protect the tree, she
could not disturb anything within its PRZ.
What is a PRZ? It is the area around the tree
where the roots grow and attach to the surrounding environment.
We all have a PRZ that supports us. For some
our reach is wide and deep. We feel connected to others, our
community and our environment. We protect our PRZ to make sure
that it does not get hurt and deepens. We want to ensure that it
continues to grow and thrive.
For some we are just growing in a new place,
new job, situation or in new relationships. Our PRZ is
beginning to take shape.
-
Who and what is in your PRZ?
-
How do you touch others, the community
and your environment?
-
What impacts your PRZ?
-
How do you nourish or weaken it?
-
What makes it thrive?
Like trees, we all have roots and grow in the
proper environment with good support. How are you ensuring
that your protective root zone stays strong?
