Coaching Ourselves: Using a 70/20/10 Approach to Informal and Social Learning for Organizations

With Phil LeNir

Almost all major corporate Learning and Organizational Development departments subscribe to the philosophy that approximately 70% of learning is informal, on the job, experience based, 20% coaching and mentoring, and 10% is comprised of formal learning interventions and structured courseware.  But what does this mean in practice? 

CoachingOurselves offers a novel approach to developing leaders and transforming organizations based on the 70/20/10 framework. There are no lectures or disconnects from the workplace, just groups of managers developing together using tools to explore a wider range of  topics  created by more than 40 leading management thinkers including Henry Mintzberg, Marshall Goldsmith, David Cooperrider, and Michael Beers.

The company was founded by Phil LeNir and Henry Mintzberg in 2007 and is used by over 10,000 managers in 8 languages. Listen to Henry Mintzberg describe CoachingOurselves here.

CoachingOurselves provides powerful reflective learning for managers that builds community, stimulates exchange of perspectives, and grows team cohesion.  Yet it is also inexpensive in a time of shrinking HR budgets for learning and development.
