Way Forward

Employee

TheGROWModel

• Establish the Goal:– Define and agree on the goal or outcome to be

achieved– Guide your employee to ensure the goal is specific,

measureable, and realistic

“Who, what, when, and how often?”“What is the effect or result of that?”

Set Your Goal

• Ask your employee to describe their current reality:– As employee begins to tell current circumstances,

the solutions may emerge

“How will you know that you achieved that goal?”“How will you know the problem is solved?”

Examine Current Reality

• Generate as many good options as possible– Offer your own solutions, but let your employee

generate as many of his/her own ideas FIRST!

“What could be your first step?”“What if this or that barrier were removed?”“What are the benefits or drawbacks of each option?”

Explore the Options

• Time to Commit!– Help employee to commit to a specific action– Specific action commitment helps employee establish

motivation and will

“What actions are you committed to taking to accomplish this?”

“What is the timeline for these actions?”“How can I support you?
