TM
USING PICTURES TO MAKE A POINT & MOVE PEOPLE
This tool will help you build a argumentative quadrant model with 3 layers of understanding. Follow the steps below. NOTE: the example given
is from my book The Entrepreneur's Solution (www.theentrepreneurssolution.com).
STEPS
EXAMPLE
1
What is the model about?
(i.e. leadership, innovation, etc.)
entrepreneurial mindset
2
What are the 5 big words that
characterize your work or process?
mindset, success, identity,
influence, impact
3
Choose 2 words for axis (Hint:
keep the action words for direction)
mindset & success
4
Decide which is vertical &
horizontal
mindset (horizontal) &
success (vertical)
5
Define what happens at each end
of the axis
mindset-mediocre & entrepreneurial
success-sustainable & unsustainable
6
Name the quadrants
(watch palette here)
task mechanic, creative saboteur,
status quo manager &
entrepreneurial superstar
7
Define your process to move from
one quadrant to the next
NOTE: see which words seem more natural in vertical vs horizontal
identity, influence & impact
