Receive, apply, advance

Not too long ago, I took the CliftonStrengthsFinder assessment. My scores came back to say my top theme was “learner”. While there are multiple profile sets, the ones I’m keying in on right now is my propensity to absorb information quickly and challenge myself to improve.

My goal is to leverage this skill to better serve my family, clients and customers. The framework I’ve been trying out is: receive, apply and advance.

Receive

Listen and consume relevant information that could be useful.

Apply

Find ways to deploy and try out what I’m learning.

Advance

Use and teach what works to grow

Whether this system is used to guide marketing efforts, product development or practice leadership, the framework holds up.
