The six capabilities

See your current approach clearly

Each group explores a different part of outcome-focused leadership: discovering what matters, holding direction, engaging others, seeing reality, moving forward and staying committed.

01
Capability

Clarity

Discovering outcomes

How clearly you define, understand and prioritise the outcomes that matter.

1If I had no constraints and could wave a magic wand, I know what higher outcomes I would like.
2I break large goals into small, meaningful projects.
3I understand why the outcomes I am working on matter.
4When I notice conflicting goals, I prioritise and redesign my approach.
02
Capability

Composure

Holding outcomes

How confidently and resourcefully you pursue ambitious outcomes under pressure.

5I pursue ambitious outcomes and confidently take bold action where required.
6I see my desired outcomes as strong preferences rather than desperate needs.
7I remain calm and resourceful when setbacks and 'stuckness' occur.
8My confidence comes from my direction rather than external approval.
03
Capability

Communication

Bringing others along

How effectively you create shared understanding, ownership and commitment.

9I take time to see things from other perspectives and help others do the same.
10I listen and help people to agree the higher outcomes first.
11I get people to think for themselves rather than solving problems for them.
12My conversations leave people feeling clearer, more confident and committed.
04
Capability

Awareness

Seeing reality clearly

How accurately you assess current reality, assumptions, resources and control.

13I am honest about where I am today, even when it is uncomfortable.
14I constantly question to become aware of what is fact and what is story.
15I am aware of the resources, skills and support I have and have not got.
16I distinguish between what I can and cannot control and invest my energy accordingly.
05
Capability

Action

Moving forward

How consistently your decisions and actions move the desired outcome forward.

17I make decisions based on my higher outcomes rather than immediate problems or the opinions of others.
18I avoid getting stuck by working on projects that do not change the result.
19I take action aligned with my higher outcomes, even when it conflicts with my immediate needs and desires.
20When circumstances change, I adapt without losing sight of the outcome.
06
Capability

Attention

Staying committed

How deliberately you keep desired outcomes visible, measurable and active over time.

21My desired outcomes are written out and I refer to them each day.
22I regularly observe where I am against where I want to be and note the gap.
23I work backwards from my desired outcomes to identify what needs to be true.
24I stay committed to an outcome-focused approach and do not get distracted.
