Leading with Outcomes: Foundation v3.1.2

Yes, it’s the third of the three announcements I promised for this month.

The first was this:

Leading in the Knowledge Economy (LIKE): 7-week cohort-based training

The summer cohort begins on April 30th and we have Easter before that, so check it out now.

And the second:

(Pre)released today – Wholehearted: Engaging with Complexity in the Deliberately Adaptive Organisation

That was last Thursday, and today it sits at #3 on LeanPub. Can we get it to #1 before tomorrow?

Before the third announcement, a reminder: “Office hours” / AMA (Ask Mike Anything) restarts tomorrow after a two-week break. Join me on Zoom most Thursdays at 2pm UK time, i.e. 14:00 GMT, 15:00 CST. If you’re based outside of Europe, check times carefully; here, daylight savings time hasn’t kicked in yet. Call details will be published tomorrow morning on Slack and (for subscribers) at the Agendashift Academy.

Leading with Outcomes: Foundation 3.1.2

So to that third announcement, the release at the Agendashift Academy of the latest version of our Foundation module. Already well-tested in the classroom, it runs more smoothly than its predecessors, and now it’s available in self-paced video-based form.

Pattern-based rather than prescriptive, Leading with Outcomes: Foundation covers four key patterns:

Engage, Invite, Celebrate, a leadership model that features prominently in Wholehearted Ideal, Obstacles, Outcomes, aka the IdOO (“I do”) pattern, the strategy-related conversation pattern that’s at the heart of Organising Conversations (2024) and Agendashift (2nd edition 2021)Meaning, Measure, Method, our outcome-oriented ideation patternRight to Left, all about impact and learning, it’s the pattern that gave its name to my 2019 book and 2020 audiobook

This third announcement also relates to the first one. How do we squeeze 3 days of Leading in a Transforming Organisation into 14 hours of cohort-based training? We cheat, that’s how! Join Leading in the Knowledge Economy and get free access to the video-based material, Foundation included.

As you can imagine, it has been an intense few weeks. Not that it stops! Next week I have a private Train-the-Trainer / Facilitator (yes that’s a thing; the next public one is in June). And I need to get Wholehearted onto Amazon. I can’t wait to have a print copy in my hands!
