Summary
of Results of Interviews about Core Process work Background “Core Process” is a quick and simple way help people find
their purpose and unique talent. I interviewed 30 people who had experienced it
at least five years ago. The purpose was to discover the benefits of the work both
to the individuals and potentially to individuals and organisations. I also
wanted to consult them about the best way to spread it, if it proved valuable. Results (a
summary of what interviewees reported) Remembering Almost everybody remembered their session vividly. They
enjoyed the experience and valued the results. One or two were dissatisfied
because what they discovered was not quite right. Everyone remembered the two
words (rarely three) that they had found. Short
term impact Most people said it had given them insight into what made
them tick. Also, core process gave or confirmed a direction to take in career
or life. This would fit or support who they really were. Longer
term impact It gave clarity confidence and focus, people used words
like “Compass” or “Anchor”. It helps people find what that is right for them
and grow in that direction. It has salience because it is intensely personal.
It helps people understand themselves deeply. Benefits
to Individuals Much better career choices. Knowing where to focus your
energy. Confidence and a sense of direction and purpose. People doing what they
are good at and enjoy. Knowing what we are good at and what others are good at
leading to greater mutual understanding and trust. Excitement and energy.
Happier people. Benefits
to Organisations Enhanced trust and team work as people know understand
each other deeply as unique individuals. People would play to their unique
strengths and each other’s. There would be a much better match of people to
jobs leading to greater happiness at work and greater productivity. People
would be doing the work they love. Comments
