@Dexter – It is our pleasure. Let me know what resonates most with you. I’ll be sure to include it in my standard stump speech to ensure we’re all speaking the same language.

@Ignacio – Thank you for the kind words. If you’re just hearing about this, follow us closely. We’ve been beating the same drum for the past 20 years and we’re showing no signs of slowing down! Looking forward to working more together.

@Andrew – I love how you’re using this. Bonus points to you for ritualizing it. When done repeatedly with strong signposting and an attitude of, “I’m expecting a thoughtful answer and you can expect a thoughtful behavioral response,” the ritual creates powerful momentum (building on your comment from Module 3). The result is that the leader naturally remains and builds their coachability while stakeholders witness a robust role model of expected leadership behaviors. (What’s funny is that the expectation of asking is the speed, their responses set momentum…in other words, it is a behavioral norm that the stakeholders themselves are articulating!)

@Andrew – Brilliant observation. Wise coaches understand the importance of motion and how to keep leaders in it. FeedForward is the perfect tool to both provide a path forward for the leader, while enabling the full weight of autonomy over where their focus is allocated.

@Ravindran 🙂 So glad this landed.
