  “I needed to improve my management team’s performance. Better understanding of individual and organisational behaviour and change in one’s own attitude are key in the transition from manager to leader. Two programs with iDiscoveri helped me and my team more than anything that we had tried before."
  Burkhard Stumpf
Country Manager, Timken India
 
 

The goal of Crucible is to help draw out leadership capability in individuals. Crucible is not just a series of programs spread over a few months. Rather, it is a sustained learning effort designed and linked around specific leadership challenges for the participants where iDiscoveri takes on full ownership and responsibility to sustain the challenge to learn among participants.

The Approach:

1. A long-term PARTNERSHIP with the CEO/ Business Head and HR
team around talent and culture.

2. A 9-12 month long LEADERSHIP LABORATORY (‘Crucible’) for key managers

3. Shift in MINDSET from manager to leader

4. Visible improvement of SKILLs in key domains

 

The Content
 
On-site interventions for:
1. Vision
To bring a sense of purpose to work, make personal meaning and create a shared compelling vision for the future

2. Skills
Customized modules created around a ‘workout’ format which emphasize cognitive understanding of tools, practice on simulated problems and transfer to real-world problems

3. Coaching
Team of facilitators provide one on one coaching to each participant to check progress, offer alternatives to tried approaches and create an environment of challenge and support


4. Action Learning Projects
Throughout the journey participants identify an organizational project as a test bed which stretches the boundaries of their defined role and requires enrolment of others
