EI AND TOP TEAM DEVELOPMENT
Programme Outline
PMI (Potential Minus Interference) is a flexible programme, based on applied emotional intelligence,
tailored to your top team's developmental needs, with the aim of achieving star performance.
Look around at your team. What do you see? Different strengths, skills, experience, attitudes…
Different things to learn… Difference…
If you invest in a team development programme, you want to be sure those differences are respected and individual learning requirements are met.
The PMI development programme enables the participants, and the team, to play to their strengths and manage their vulnerabilities.
It zooms in on areas of individual and team resistance and facilitates a shift.
It energises and gets teams moving.
Duration: 6 Min 45 Sec

- Team questionnaire to benchmark the perceived level of team effectiveness at the outset
- Online self perception questionnaire on Individual Effectiveness
- Online 360° feedback questionnaire

CASE STUDIES
THE 4 CORNERSTONES OF PMI
There are four main principles that are fundamental to the success of the PMI programme:
1. Performance = Potential – Interference (The Inner Game of ... series by Timothy Gallwey)
Do you believe that to achieve your full potential you need to acquire more skills, add to your portfolio or increase your competence? For most of us, achieving our potential actually involves a getting rid of process. Our interference - the stuff that gets in the way, that sabotages our growth. This is often inside us - our ways of thinking, our limited patterns of feeling and believing. The PMI programme helps you to tackle your interference, if you choose, as an individual, as a team, as a company.
2. Accountability
Look at the probability of achieving your goal(s):
- If you hear an idea = 10%
- If you decide when you will do it = 40%
- If you plan how you will do it = 50%
- If you commit to someone else you will do it = 65%
- If you have a specific accountability appointment with the person you've committed to = 95%
You more than double the likelihood of completing a goal if you move from deciding to do it to committing to report back to someone on your progress. (American Society for Training & Development)
The PMI programme is successful because the participants replace old, 'bad' habits with new, more effective habits. They choose their area for development from their Individual Effectiveness Profile, and then the specific actions that will achieve this development. For each Action Point there is a support person to check in with and an Action Learning Group where each participant discusses their progress and their interference.
The PMI programme creates opportunities for participants to really commit to change, and deliver. Their success is in direct proportion to their commitment.
3. AppliedEI
The PMI programme is designed to increase individual and team emotional intelligence (EI). But the key word here is Applied. It's about doing, putting EI into practice, making it happen. This isn't a just theory based management development programme - what's most important is what you do with your learning in between each session, how this builds up and changes your performance from start to completion, how this journey makes your intentions a reality.
More than 80 per cent of the general competencies that set apart superior from average performers are in the areas of:
- Self awareness
- Self Management
- Awareness of others
- Relationship management
These are the foundations of emotional intelligence.
The Tipping Point
This is the point at which strength in a competence makes a significant impact on performance. Applying emotional intelligence through the structure and the principles of the PMI means that participants' overall competence increases and that star performers emerge. They demonstrate excellence in 6 or more EI competencies with at least one competency in each of the above areas.
4. "Crucibles"
Warren Bennis (Management and Leadership theorist and writer) uses the term crucibles to describe turning points or defining events that force people to decide who they are and what they are capable of, and consequently, how they lead. The PMI Programme supports these experiences by encouraging participants to reflect on their experiences.
It also creates 'pint sized crucibles' as part of the programme's experiential learning process.
WHAT OTHERS SAY:
About their personal development
"I am convinced that my recent promotion from manager to Group Director was aided by my participation on the Potential Minus Interference course. The recruitment consultants commented on and watch EI in action throughout the assessment centre and I had real-life examples and evidence to support my self belief and confidence. I'd recommend PMI and EI to anyone – try it, it really works!"
"Friends, colleagues and family have all commented on how much better I am at managing my emotions. My wife recently told me that the PMI programme has been the best development training that I've ever had."
About the programme
"Tremendously empowering."
"It has brought deep rooted mindsets and behaviours to the surface and provided a very effective environment and mechanisms for addressing these."
"Our organisation has been going through significant change and transformation and our PMI/EI development programme has helped us to work together on really difficult issues and has added strength and depth to our ability to do this through ever changing times. Our personal relationships are stronger and we are very supportive of each other – because we understand each other better and approach things from an adult:adult perspective and an "I'm OK you're OK" level."
