SOLUTION 2: GUIDE
Guide participants on the simple actions they can use to activate the Core.
We’ve spent 15 years investigating the question: “How can leadership development be radically simplified?” Over time, we discovered the DNA of great leadership: a set of simple actions that help participants bring out the best in themselves and others in all situations.
These actions start from within, by changing one’s intention, thought or feeling, and then take on an outer form, by changing one’s behavior.
The goal of a leader should not simply be to change other people’s behavior, but also their intentions, thoughts and feelings from within. That’s how you get genuine alignment across people.
The actions taught in GUIDE are very simple; an action can typically be executed in just 5-10 seconds. By learning a limited number of actions, and then combining them in different ways to form action-paths, an aspiring leader can generate the full range of behaviors and competencies they typically need at work. The actions are like the 26 letters of the alphabet that can be combined as needed to form the language of leadership.
Our learning design team will work with you to define the leadership behaviors and mindsets you are seeking to train on, and then select the actions from our library that will meet this goal. We have also developed a number of off-the-shelf GUIDE programs based on popular demand, and you can find these program descriptions below.
topics covered:
Principles
Core ideas that help learners understand the essence of purpose, people, performance or growth.
Actions
Training on a set of Actions selected from the Mentora Actions Library based on the DRIVE program’s behavior change goals. Training includes:
- Why, what and how for each action
- Rapid role-play practice sessions
- Missions that participants execute at work
Behavior Lab
Participants develop a plan to address their most critical behavior-change goals at work using the actions they have learned in the program
Capstone Project
All through the program, participants work on applying the principles and actions they are learning to drive impact on a chosen project at work.
