Navigating through Complexity, explore your skills

How to use the toolkit
Use the kit for self, peer, or team evaluations. Simply rank the level of the skill described on the card from 1 to 5 (1 = novice, 5 = expert) and note this on the canvas at the corresponding number. This process highlights strengths and areas for improvement and collaboration in navigating complex transition challenges.

As self-evaluation, you can fill this in yourself. For peer-assessment ask stakeholders that have seen you work closely. For team-assessment it's relevant to look for complementary skills in the team; it's okay if the individual doesn't strongly cover all stages, but is it sufficiently covered in the team?

The four stages of navigating
The navigator compass shows four different phases a facilitator meets in transition challenges

Setting the stage: Focuses on creating the best physical and social environment to work in. Mastery in this phase ensures a great start to any collaboration.

Holding the space: These skills foster a sense of safety and value which are crucial for co-creation. They help build a collaborative mindset among participants.

Navigating the process: This phase is where most efforts go, involving guiding and steering a group of people through complex processes. Mastery here means knowing the right steps to take.

Making impact Aims to ensure positive influence with a lasting effect on the world by creating and safeguarding the urgency and relevance of the project purpose.
