This model, developed by Robert Kegan and Lisa Lahey of Harvard University, helps clients uncover hidden commitments and untested assumptions that block change. By mapping these competing dynamics, clients can achieve sustainable growth instead of temporary fixes.
What’s included:
6-8 coaching sessions that address client’s specific improvement or growth goal
Targeted plan to make progress toward defined goal
Reflection and growth tools and practices to use between sessions
Session topics are grounded in the idea that resistance to change is our way of protecting ourselves against untested assumptions.
Defining your Improvement Goal: What change do you want?
Identifying Competing Commitments: What hidden commitments work against your goal?
Recognizing Big Assumptions: What unconscious beliefs make those commitments feel necessary?
Testing Assumptions: Conduct small, safe experiments to prove those beliefs wrong and enable change
