The action plan to success

Action learning projects can be complex and difficult to implement successfully. Because of their high-profile and use of scarce resources, this risk is amplified. 

AchieveForum has created a simple process that incorporates all of the success factors that are so critical to implementing action learning successfully.

The four phased action learning process helps to structure and execute action learning to realise its dual goal of business results. 

The key outcomes of each phase are as follows: 

First is the defining phase, In this phase the purpose  of action learning should be identified. 

Understand the organization’s readiness for action learning. Select the type of action learning best suited to the organisation, Identify business issues that might benefit from action learning interventions.

Next is the structure phase. In this create a well-informed team capable of managing the implementation. 

Align stakeholders, inform them about their roles, and ready them to support participants’ action learning activities. Create appropriate processes for identifying action learning projects.

Now the structured points should be implemented.

Ensure appropriate and effective coaching of participants throughout their action learning. Communicate action learning project results through high-quality presentations.

Now these changes should be incorporated and execute project recommendations for positive business results. Incorporate changes in management/leadership behaviour for a positive impact on individual leaders and those they work with.

If these key points are followed in the mentioned four-phase approach then it would be beneficial for both business and leadership development.
