1.
Define the problem to solve.
J3P reports our initial assessment of themes and factors contributing to team motivation and success, as well as what the challenged areas may be. This is typically a combination of factors that can be addressed once defined within context to the appropriate stakeholders.
2.
Develop and implement the plan.
J3P works with the leaders individually and then collectively in team workshops. Both are necessary to increase individualized self-awareness, in addition to an analysis of the strengths and challenges impacting team performance.
