chief chaos coach
Coaching your people to change their relationship with Chaos
Chaos is the primary problem in business these days, but there are 2 kinds of chaos, disorganized-chaos and organized-chaos, which are 2 completely different worlds. Few people have had any coaching about chaos and, as a result, can easily get stuck in chronic disorganized-chaos and crisis management.
- Learn the 4 Core-Concepts of Agility which will allow you and your people to operate in organized-chaos not disorganized-chaos.
- Are you defining chaos or is chaos defining you?
- Trust me, if you don't step up to be the Chief Chaos Coach on your team, no one else will!
Be the Chief Chaos Coach in your business, coaching your people to change their relationship with chaos, moving from disorganized chaos to organized chaos.
chief triage facilitator
Facilitating your people to change their relationship with Triage
The antidote to chaos is triage, which is the most acute form of time management, priority management, resource management, attention management and frankly everything management you can get, in a real-time unfolding, high stakes journey of a situation like dog fight, or a special forces mission or an offshore oil & gas drilling rig, in which you get few second chances. Indeed, like business is these days.
There is a huge difference between partial-triage, in which we triage inside of partial situational awareness, and full-triage, in which we triage inside of full situational awareness. Few people have had any facilitation of triage and, as a result, can easily get stuck in partial-triage. Which in turn invites disorganized chaos.
- Learn the 13 Component Parts of an Agility Operating System (AOS) that will allow you and your people to be operating in full-triage not partial-triage.
- Are you triaging the situation or is the situation triaging you?
- Trust me, if you don't step up to be the Chief Triage Facilitator on your team, no one else will!
Be the Chief Triage Facilitator in your business, facilitating your people to change their relationship with triage, moving from partial triage to full triage.
chief insight trainer
Training your people to change their relationship with Insight
The secret of good triage is to learn as much as possible about an unfolding situation in foresight rather than in hindsight. Hindsight is so much more expensive, and often comes with high cost and sometimes life-and-death consequences. Few people have had any training about insight and learning in foresight and, as a result, can easily get stuck learning in hindsight. Which in turn invites partial triage and disorganized chaos.
- Learn the secrets that will allow you and your people to be learning in foresight not in hindsight.
- What are you learning in hindsight a lot more expensively than you could have been learning in foresight a lot more cheaply?
- Trust me, if you don't step up to be the Chief Insight Trainer on your team, no one else will!
Be the Chief Insight Trainer in your business, training your people to change their relationship with insight, moving from learning in hindsight to learning in foresight.
chief luck consultant
Consulting with your people to change their relationship with Luck
If we have been learning in foresight, we are more likely to experience good luck by design rather than bad luck by accident. Luck is a lot less random than we think, "luck is where preparation meets opportunity" kind of thing and we can easily be woefully under-prepared. Few people have had any consulting about luck and, as a result can, easily get stuck more likely to be experiencing bad luck by accident. Which in turn invites learning in hindsight, partial triage and disorganized chaos.
- Learn the secrets that will allow you and your people to be more likely experiencing good luck by design not bad luck by accident.
- What bad luck by accident are you experiencing that is actually bad preparation?
- Trust me, if you don't step up to be the Chief Luck Consultant on your team, no one else will!
Be the Chief Luck Consultant in your business, consulting with your people to change their relationship with luck, moving from luck by accident to luck by design.
chief journey architect
Being the architect of your people changing their relationship with your Journey
The bottom-line is your journey and trajectory of your business, profitability & growth, career and life, as an unfolding flow, macroscopically (the big picture) and the microscopically (the small details) simultaneously. Few people really understand how to architect breakthrough journeys and, as a result, can easily get stuck hitting a glass ceiling unable to breakthrough, or worse. Which in turn invites bad luck by accident, learning in hindsight, partial triage and disorganized chaos.
- Learn the secrets of Agile C2C: Conversation-Flow to Cash-Flow and how a journey simultaneously unfolds macroscopically and microscopically. #CONVERSATIONFLOW2CASHFLOW
- Learn the secrets of Good Micro-Management. Micro-management has a bad reputation, but understand that there are 2 kinds: bad micro-management and good micro-management.
- Learn what really drives your Share-Price (if you are a public company) or valuation (if you are a private company)
- Is your stock as a leader, as a team and as a business rising, flat-lining or falling?
- Are you driving your journey or is your journey driving you?
- Trust me, if you don't step up to be the Chief Journey Architect on your team, no one else will!
Be the Chief Journey Architect, helping your people change their relationship with the journey, moving from macroscopic to also microscopic, from bad micromanagement to good micromanagement.
go from the fragile majority to the agile minority
Which Camp are You and Your Team In?
Fragility begets more fragility, as a self-defeating, vicious cycle and downwards spiral of disorganized-chaos, partial-triage, learning from hindsight, bad luck by accident and bad micro-management, all feeding on each other. Agility begets more agility, as a self-fulfilling, virtuous cycle and upwards spiral of organized-chaos, full-triage, learning from foresight, good luck by design and good micro-management, all feeding on each other.
That's the nature of the challenge, which at the extreme divides the world into 2 camps, of the fragile majority and the agile minority. The fragile majority can easily feel stuck.
- Learn how to undertake the journey from the fragile majority to the agile minority. It's not as arduous as you think and an upwards spiral of benefits can take root quickly.
- Are you choosing your future or is your future choosing you? Are you living into a default future of more of the same, or worse, that can easily feel hopeless? Or are you resolving to break through to a new future, that can easily feel hopeful?
