The Accomplish Objectives Training Kit is designed for 4-5 people to work together to complete the exercises.  Each kit includes one poster-size workmap, case study game pieces, handout packets for each participant to keep and the Training Guide, which contains step-by-step instructions for each of the training exercises and discussion questions to facilitate group learning.  Participants apply their varied backgrounds and experiences to reinforce learning as the training progresses.

This module contains one case study and six activities that provide a framework for effective Execution, which is the centerpiece of the bottom layer of The Consulting Stance Pyramid. Accomplishing Objectives is the first and most visible element of your performance. The 90-minute self-paced session is ideal for groups of four or five and includes:

• Pre-Briefing to introduce the concept of Tabletop Training and ensure that all participants understand what is expected of them. This type of training is enhanced by active participation from all students.
• Project Cycle phases, Deliverables and Key Skills required for each phase.
• Task Execution Cycle, which includes a detailed, consultative process for completing tasks efficiently and effectively and a Symptom-Diagnosis exercise to tie actions to consequences in the participants' minds.
• Collaboration Cycle, which teaches the key elements of consultative collaboration combined with a Symptom-Diagnosis exercise to tie actions to consequences.
• Debriefing to review lessons learned, reinforce core concepts and encourage participants to incorporate the lessons learned into their daily routine.

The Accomplish Objectives Training Kit provides a framework for effective execution of project activities based on a common understanding of the process and skills necessary.  Participants will see immediate improvement in productivity and collaboration skills.  By working together to complete the training, they have the opportunity to tailor the material to their own circumstances, which creates an instant accountability network to provide ongoing support as they incorporate these concepts into their daily working routine.
