Let your leaders soar.
The B3 framework brings the principles of vertical development to life. The process integrates learning and development with getting work done, creating a habit of growth through experimentation and on-the-job action. Repeatedly moving thorough the B3 cycle, leaders develop both horizontally (learn new skills and capabilities) and vertically (mindset growth building the capacity to deal with complexity).
The B3 methodology.
Our Be Conscious, Be Curious, Be Better (B3) framework is the magic behind how we develop leaders horizontally and vertically.
Built on neuroscience and behavior change principles to develop the mindset to thrive in ambiguity.
The B3 framework respects the context your leaders are coming from and operating in; giving them the space to contextualize and focus on what they need.
A model to iteratively develop; with a continual focus on experiential development and reflection.

Learning to ride
---By Carl Sanders-Edwards  A week ago our youngest daughter, Alexa, was learning to ride a bike. In true Dad fashion, I was walking with her - nudging and holding her up. She has good balance but it wasn't pretty. So I helped more - I nudged, I held - I made it...
