Development Pathway
The Learning Continuum
In a constantly evolving and competitive environment, businesses, families, partnerships, sports teams, community organisations and individuals are faced with the need to continually improve their performance. To maintain or gain a competitive advantage it is necessary to constantly seek out and shift to the next cycle of growth, development and performance, before the current cycle starts to run out.
This requires effective leadership – the ability to own, initiate, lead and manage change. Change in thinking, beliefs, attitudes, behaviours, asset utilisation and culture.
Change requires four components to be in place. The individual needs to
- have the desire to do something different
- know what to do differently
- know how to do it differently and
- there needs to be support and accountability to implement the skills
Learning Effectiveness
For an individual to have the desire or motivation to change what they are doing, to break habits, they need to have insights1 that lead them to think differently about their behaviours and results. Insights provide motivation and an open mind receptive to new and different practices. Turning this knowledge into results requires training.
Training, followed up by one on one coaching delivers significantly more improvement in effectiveness than training without follow-up.
One on one coaching is critical to achieve quantum gains in sustainable performance.
LifeStuff's approach delivers to all four development components - the desire, the what to, the how to and the support and accountability.
The following LifeStuff delivery offerings are sequential, but can be used independently.
1 Insight: an understanding; a realisation of how things work; an 'uh ha' moment, "I get it now"; the start of the change process. Insights preceed motivation.
