Objectives:

• Develop, focus and harness the energy/creativity/strategic thinking of your team in order to provide cohesive leadership and direction for the entire organization.

• Achieve lasting endurance beyond any leader, idea or setback

Challenge Overview (A dozen mission essential steps that will help you "catch your limit"):

1. Staff Assessment Interviews (Buy In):

Always start with the AS IS. Develop a snapshot of where your staff's mindset is now. We conduct confidential interviews with each individual (qualitative) and objectify their collective perceptions of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) of both leadership and organization (quantitative).

2. Online Assessments:

Catch Your Limit will conduct Online Assessments with staff on a variety of subjects from change, team ability, leadership and creativity.

3. Where do we want to go?

Explore (facilitated process involving staff) the TO BE (see Objectives) ... what we must focus on to maintain relevance to our customers, our organization and ourselves 3-5 years from now? This is our vision and the purpose of our Challenge.

The GAP between the AS IS and TO BE becomes the organization's overall challenge/opportunity and the GAP (Group Action Plans) becomes the focus of the Catch Your Limit Challenge.
