The Moxie Model — Change your mindset. Change the organization.
Moxie Consulting learning events emphasize individual empowerment as a mindset as well as specific tools for practice and application. From contemplation to implementation.
Our model: culture, collaboration, communication and cultivation.
-
* Cultural anthropology. A personal interview or an assessment is completed to analyze the current culture, examine client goals and determine needs and objectives to be accomplished.
* Collaboration. As sessions are launched, a tone of collaboration is created. Participants are encouraged to suspend their mental models and to examine the topic/subject with "'new eyes." This process promotes a spirit of collaborative learning. Everyone brings something to the table.
* Communication. Through discussions, case studies, individual scenarios and interactive activities, the group reaches an understanding of the topic. Most importantly, application opportunities are discussed and a plan of implementation is developed. From classroom to cubicle.
* Cultivate. Learning events are only successful to the extent people do something different afterwards. Cultivation includes personal action planning, partnering for accountability and development of strategies for ongoing improvement.
