OPAL’s Mission
MISSION: OPAL engenders significant impact on the quality of leadership, by growing high performing people who understand the importance of being reflactive, humbitious and welfective.
They promote this mindset to be socially and professionally acceptable.
What does it mean to be reflactive?
Learning: Reflection & Action
There are three foci within the OPAL Learning Model to achieve the ultimate state of learning: Creating the Headspace; Promoting the Thinking; and Sharing the Wisdom. By combining reflection and action, reflactive learners create impact for themselves and others.
Creating Headspace 10%:
We achieve this through increasing and enriching physical and mental wellbeing, thus creating the space to learn more effectively. Members will have access to bespoke support packages to help develop the best version of themselves.
Stimulating Thinking 50%:
We achieve this through publishing intellectual property and methodology to both new and existing clients. These publications are designed to stimulate thinking and learning freely, at their own pace.
Sharing Wisdom 40%:
We achieve this through live learning, physically bringing people together to think, learn and take action. As well as providing a suite of personal development programmes, OPAL has been created to facilitate a network of High Performing People.
What does it mean to be humbitious?
Leading: Humility & Ambition
Drawing on our extensive research and reflections, it is clear the most effective, high performing people are not those with the biggest egos, but those who possess humility, coupled with ambition and drive.
“It is not thinking less of yourself, it is thinking of yourself less.”C.S.Lewis
Humility + Ambition = Humbition
OPAL's Humbition Model: Humbition is part humility and part ambition. It is a combination of:
- Direction
- Influence
- Strength
- Credibility
Humbition grows high performing people in organisations.
What does it mean to be welfective?
Lifestyling: Wellbeing & Effectiveness
Welfective
There are two ways in which we explore our term ‘Welfective!’
High performing people:
- Recognise that wellness affects performance; and
- Manage their wellbeing effectively
OPAL’s Welfective Model
The Inner Circle:
Mind, Body & Soul
Ensuring I take responsibility for the wellness of my Mind, Body and Soul;
maintaining the equilibrium and staying in control.
The Outer Circle:
Our 8 Welfective Areas
Identifying the influences and drivers that govern Mind, Body and Soul;
negotiating my expectations and navigating the way forward.
How does OPAL define high performing people?
Reflactive, Humbitious & Welfective
High Performing People
Success has been defined in many ways over the years. At OPAL, we are continually reconsidering and redefining what high performing people look like.
What remains a constant is that high performing people are transformative.
“High performing people enable others to grow and thrive through the process of growing and thriving themselves.”OPAL Fellow
So, in summary, we believe:
(Reflactive + Humbitious) x Welfective
= High Performing People
