Personal Audit: Recovery Loop, Learning Intention, and Mindset

Ten questions drawn from the module’s slides, films and exhibits, the two muscles and the recovery loop, learning intention versus performance goal, mindsets as belief filters and the APR shift, concern versus influence, and honest self-assessment, followed by a three-part written audit entry you will carry into the Personal Audit tool.

• 1.1Adaptability and Resilience: two muscles, the recovery loop, learn · grow · thrive
• 1.2Learning Intention: intention versus performance goal, a number and a date
• 1.3Foundational Mindset: belief filters, APR, concern versus influence, honest assessment

Self-Leadership: Lens, Ownership, Outcome, and Priority

Sixteen questions across the four lessons, principles, paradigms and practices; the stimulus–response gap, proactive language and the Circle of Influence; first and second creation, the mission statement and the 3-year outcome; the Time Matrix, Big Rocks, the graceful no and the moment of choice. Then a four-part design page: your paradigm, your ownership sentences, your mission and outcome, and next week’s Big Rocks.

• 2.1How Your Lens Shapes Your Results, principles · paradigms · practices, effectiveness over efficiency
• 2.2Ownership: the gap, proactive language, Circle of Influence, the habit loop
• 2.3Designing the Outcome First, two creations, mission statement, 3-year outcome
• 2.4Defending the Important: Time Matrix, Big Rocks, the graceful no, the moment of choice

Problem-Solving Brief: Define, Structure, Prioritise, Recommend

Eighteen questions drawn from the four lessons’ slides, films and exhibits, the four-step loop and the seven-step hypothesis-led approach, SMART problem questions and the Problem Statement Worksheet, debiasing, issue trees and MECE, 80/20 and the prioritisation matrix, work plans, synthesis and recommendations, goals and gaps, and the Hustleton case. Then a written brief that runs one real challenge of yours from a SMART question to a prioritised tree, a work plan and a recommendation.

• 3.1Think Like a Problem Solver, the four-step loop, the seven-step approach, problem types, defining the problem, logic trees
• 3.2Root Causes and Action Plans, SMART, the Problem Statement Worksheet, debiasing, the yes/no tree, the design plan, impact × ease
• 3.3Goals, Gaps and Good Decisions, issue trees and MECE, 80/20, work plans, synthesis and recommendations, gap arithmetic, weighted decisions
• 3.4Case Assignment: Hustleton City: a SMART statement, a MECE issue tree, two sub-issues prioritised

Communication Plan: EPIC, Pyramid, Storyline, Delivery

Eighteen questions drawn from the four lessons’ slides, films and the MODA cases, the EPIC approach, empathy and active listening, purpose in three parts, insights and MECE groupings, the Pyramid Principle and synthesis, storylines and how to adapt them, the three elements of style, delivering remotely, facilitation and open–narrow–close. Then a written communication plan for one real interaction you will have in the next two weeks.

• 4.1Common Communication Challenges: EPIC, the five challenges, empathy and active listening at MODA
• 4.2Core Communication Theory: purpose in three parts, a shared agenda, insights and groupings, the pyramid and altitude
• 4.3Applied Communication Case Studies, data to insight, the Pyramid Principle, synthesis, storylines, the video call
• 4.4Elements of Presentation Style, presence, voice, connection, delivering remotely, facilitation, open–narrow–close

Sustainable Performance: Energy, People and AI

Twenty questions across the eight lessons, the minimum viable protocol and the Growth Equation; stressor versus stress, completing the cycle, values and defusion; AVEC across hierarchy and REACH from the junior seat; restating, the Disagreement Ladder and false consensus; fundamentals and reactions to change; the jagged frontier, three gates and CEK-5; focus blocks, the weekly review and AI inside the five stations. Then a three-part written reflection: your weakest energy system and its floor, one relationship and the AVEC element you will practise, and the task most exposed to AI with your skill bet.

• 5.1Physical and Mental Health, energy systems, the minimum viable protocol, overload signals, the Growth Equation, movement and heat
• 5.2Stress, Recovery and Mental Skills, stressor versus stress, completing the cycle, control and the tool, values, 3R and defusion
• 5.3A Framework for Strong Relationships; AVEC, bids, hierarchy, REACH from the junior seat, boundaries
• 5.4Listening, Disagreeing and Conversations That Matter, restating, conversation types, the Disagreement Ladder, false consensus
• 5.5Staying Relevant: fundamentals first, the learning loop, reactions to change, change you didn't choose
• 5.6Working with AI: tasks not titles, the jagged frontier, three gates, CEK-5, responsible use
• 5.7Digital Productivity Toolkit: five stations, focus blocks, the weekly review, AI inside stations, digital safety
• 5.8Case Assignment: Raka's First 100 Days: diagnose, people, AI, a keepable plan, and your own Sustainable Performance Plan

Virtual Job Simulation: Reflection Report

Complete one full virtual job simulation from your chosen industry track and reflect on it: what the simulation required, how you performed against the stated criteria, what you learned about the industry, the role and your own readiness, and what you would do differently in a real application process.
