The GROW Model
The GROW model for solving problems and achieving goals.
The power of GROW is that it is easily understood, straightforward to apply and very thorough. In addition, once you have an understanding of how it works, it is possible to apply it to an amazing variety of issues in a very effective way.
Even complex, multi faceted problems can be tackled with GROW and it often enables individuals to make progress on issues even when they have been stuck for a long time.
Why does the GROW model works so well?
The GROW model will stop you struggling, or making so many mistakes. It will help you recover quickly should you slip. GROW can get you going again when you stall. With GROW you can create a support framework to motivate you and encourage you. GROW can make success easier, faster and more fun than you dream possible.
Anything worthwhile takes effort. Achieving major goals is no exception. Let me be blunt. Achievement requires WORK. (Sorry about the four letter word.) If you are looking for an easy fix with no effort, you won't find it here - or anywhere. There is nothing here for anyone who won't act!
There is no quick, effortless fix! If you think there is, save yourself effort and heartache and stop reading right now. You will be welcome back here if you decide you are worth at least some effort.
Still with me? Good! I take it you are worth some well placed, effective effort! I promise GROW will not waste your time or energy. I hate it when people waste my time, so I shall not waste yours. If you would like to know more about how to use GROW and how it was developed there is some more information below. Otherwise lets make a start with your goals
The power of GROW - easy, simple and thorough.
The GROW model was developed in the UK and used extensively in coaching during the late 1980s and 1990s.
The GROW Model enables you to break down an issue into its constituent parts. Once these are clear it becomes straightforward to develop solutions.
With GROW, you create the solutions yourself so it is likely you will be delighted with them, and committed to carrying them through.
GROW has been proven in use by thousands of ordinary people, just like you, tackling an amazing range of problems, and achieving some astonishing successes - some in a remarkable short time.
Although the GROW process is straightforward, any process involving human beings can become complex when applying it in practise. If you would like to discuss how to use the GROW process with your issue or your team click here.
You can use GROW by yourself or with the support of another person. Generally I advise working through a difficult issue with someone else, because they do not have the same emotional attachment that we have to our own issues.
