Groups
This app is prescriptive in helping people identify important relationships
within an organization and the primary actions they will take with each. For that reason, the user
will categorize their contacts into 4 different groups defined by the primary action they will focus on with each:
- Align: These are stakeholders the
user
needs to align with in order to succeed. These people have a vested interest in theuser
's delivery. They will therefore advocate foruser
when they are not in the room. - Partner: These are peers, usually the people who report to the
user
's boss, sharing in a broader mission than theuser
has. This team is important to track because in order to perform and grow, one has to be supportive and not competitive with their peers. - Guide: These make up the
user
's team, people who either report to theuser
or who look to theuser
for guidance, mentorship, or leadership when an individual contributor. Theuser
likely has a vested interest in the outcome of their work. - Network: this is every other important relationship that comprises the
user
's community, meant to ensure that there is a wider impact than just the team.
