Our B3 methodology.
For adaptive leaders.
The B3 framework brings the principles of vertical development to life. The process integrates learning and development with getting work done, creating a habit of growth through experimentation and on-the-job action. Repeatedly moving thorough the B3 cycle, leaders develop both horizontally (learn new skills and capabilities) and vertically (mindset growth building the capacity to deal with complexity).
In a nutshell.
Our Be Conscious, Be Curious, Be Better (B3) framework is the magic behind how we develop leaders horizontally and vertically.
Built on neuroscience and behavior change principles to develop the mindset to thrive in ambiguity.
The B3 framework respects the context your leaders are coming from and operating in; giving them the space to contextualize and focus on what they need.
A model to iteratively develop; with a continual focus on experiential development and reflection.
