For
full empowerment -we need to train on all levels:- tactic
knowing, emotional knowing, intuitive knowing, body knowing and
rational knowing!"
Peter Senge in his
book The 5Th Discipline points out to us that our
only real competitive advantage is the people we employ. (And
their associated activated potential). To benefit from their
untapped potential, we have to create and adopt new ways of
training, directing and supporting.
 We
are multi-dimensional beings. By developing on only one dimension
(Rational knowing/IQ:10%-20%) and neglecting the others (Tactile,
emotional, intuitive and body: 80%-90%), we are losing out on
benefiting from our FULL potential. People react, respond and
perform, based upon reference and recollection to many facets of
their stored memories. We cannot separate emotion or attitudes
from knowledge and skill in our day to day activities.
Where ever we use our rational knowledge, we
also have associated emotions, beliefs, values, attitudes and
perspectives that are deeply interwoven. If we expect optimal
performance and productivity from our teams, we have to develop
and empower them on all dimensions. If we continue to only
address the rational level and ignore the others, imbalances will
occur. Because we are holistic, all dimensions are
inter-dependent. Unbalanced development severely restricts our
ability to perform and inter-relate at our peak.
The dimensions we need to address are:
Emotional, Physiological, Mental and Intuitive/Spiritual. They
ALL interact and directly influence each other. They influence
and control all levels of knowledge, skill, aptitudes, attitudes,
abilities, performance levels and productivity.
Most people have parts of themselves
locked-away/frozen through life’s encounters. And it is with
these "weak links" and perspectives that they "TRY" to "be the
best that they can be". Always "trying" – never fully
AUTHENTIC. Never fully empowered.
Can we really expect people to perform
exceptionally, when we do not empower and develop them on all
levels? With staff being your only real competitive advantage
– we believe that we should be developing people concurrently
on every level: Thinking, feeling and acting.
Developing them into fully authentic people.
