GROW Canvas

Why?

Clarity drives action. The GROW framework helps us define where we want to go, understand our current reality, explore options, and commit to the way forward. It ensures alignment, focus, and meaningful progress.

How?

We move step by step:

Goal – Define what success looks like.

Reality – Get clear on where we stand.

Options – Explore possibilities and resources.

Will Do – Prioritise and commit to actions.

As a bonus to GROW, provide clarity on Who can and can't contribute so expectations are understood.

It’s about structured thinking, smart decisions, and making things happen.
