Hi,
I came across something new today. Anyone has prior experience with this:
"
The Rapid Results Approach is a structured process that uses short-term (100-day) projects to help build leadership and program management skills as well as accelerate the pace at which organizations achieve results (outcomes). Each 100 day project (called a Rapid Results Initiative or “RRI”) provides a venue in which an organization can build the capacity of its people as they attempt to achieve an ambitious result that is of critical importance to the organization’s long-term strategy. The Approach has been in use for the last 40 years in the public and private sectors – both in developed and developing economies—to enhance the effectiveness and capacity of organizations and individuals.
The main difference between Rapid Results and traditional programs is that in the proposed program the learning and development literally occur while participants are actively working on a critical performance challenge that matters to their organization or overall strategic goals. By contrast, in traditional programs the learning occurs in preparation for, and in the hope of, performance improvements.
In brief, the Approach combines best practices from the disciplines of organizational psychology, change management and capacity building. It creates focused arenas for “learning-by-doing” in which participants have continuous opportunities for growth through self-reflection and experience sharing within and across teams. This reflection and experience-sharing is facilitated by “Coaches” who provide real-time support to team members, team leaders and the sponsors in senior management.
