Spinning his wheels
Robert had reached the level where nobody hands you development any more. In his words, executive training and performance coaching “had to come from me”.
He was stuck in limbo. Sending 45-page presentations to a boss who wanted a spreadsheet.
“When you’re so caught up in the day-to-day, you don’t even know what you’re missing.”
Three things he hadn’t tried
He brought one challenge he was sure he had already attacked every way possible.
He hadn’t. The group recommended three things he had never tried. The problem fixed itself.
“I thought I had exhausted all my options to resolve a particular challenge. Turned out I hadn’t.”
What changed
- A new role eight weeks after joining: similar work, much bigger scale
- A clearer read on how he communicates and what his boss needs from him
- In his words, he can see the future again
“Joining the Mastermind speeds up that process. You get instant access to people who know more than you.”
His advice
“If you apply yourself in the program and you are committed to making it work, it’s going to work.”
