Welcome to the i3MK and TPE Coaching and Strategic Planning web site We are here to help you determine the strengths, hidden talents, and goals you have for life, spirit, and beyond. There are many ways that have been developed to provide insight of goals and desires of each individual. In our approach we have developed a system called TPE (Think Plan Expand ). These three elements provide the basics to goal setting: Think - Discovering your strengths and desires. We do not talk about weaknesses because we see them as hidden talents to be brought to the front. Plan - Lay out a chart that displays your strengths and how you can overlay your goals so things are better aligned Expand - Using your strengths and goals established expand them into your life incrementally With this, we also introduce a concept called TIPU AKE from New Zealand. This aligns simple organic life cycles and sustainment with the chart of goals. This is an organic systematic path that re-enforces the planning and growth cycle that we all move through. Please visit http://www.tipuake.org.nz/index.php for more information on TIPU AKE. If you would like more information about this, please contact us at: davidi3MK@gmail.com We will be building this information site as time progresses. --> BE SURE TO SIGN THE GUEST BOOK BELOW !! and check out the article below the video... Part of the toatal picture when operating as a leader of a group is to realize the talents and innovative ideas that team members have to contribute. This can be a tool for your own growth and the growth of others. In the excerpt below are some thoughts provided by Herdlinger Associates for leaders and followers alike:
The Executive Challenge Systematizing disruptive innovation is a different beast. Senior executives must think and act in ways that run counter to everything they have done to succeed in their careers. How do you simultaneously manage two different instincts: one operational, the other entrepreneurial? Executives who encounter tough times naturally become more conservative. It’s hard for them to tolerate creative thinking when they face the prospect of downsizing. But companies that play it too safe can wind up in trouble down the road, and frustrated managers may quit, leaving their firms ill-equipped to function effectively once the downturn ends. What can you do to harness creative talents? One approach is to give innovators freedom to dream up bold, new ideas, as long as they can use low-cost experiments to show value. You can involve creative minds in core business challenges. Leaders, managers and employees at all levels must improve their abilities to master seemingly paradoxical demands. Innovation practitioners need to strengthen their creative muscles, which include associational thinking and discovery skills like questioning, observing, exploring, challenging assumptions and networking. Embracing paradox and systematizing disruptive innovation have graduated from niceties to necessities. Leaders can master these requisite skills by: • Developing an awareness of themselves and others • Creating a personalized program of developmental leadership with an executive coach • Striving to improve their ability to spot hidden opportunities and act in more entrepreneurial ways • Scheduling regular excursions to observe how certain customers use a product or service • Attending a conference in a different industry • Learning to ask more “what if…” questions The economy may be unhealthy, but innovation and entrepreneurism remain alive. Make sure they thrive in your company. There are ample opportunities for corporate innovators to create booming businesses that transform what exists and invent what doesn’t.
