Humans have had access to wisdom for thousands of years. Our challenge is in applying it.
We can spend a lifetime making the same kinds of mistakes.
Aaron Boe, Founder of Potential Driven
Access to all the knowledge and wisdom we could ever need is incredibly valuable.
But it is too much.
Just like we break down a sport into its fundamental skills and mechanics, we need the same for our inner lives.
Certain fundamentals and inner strengths are at work within us when we are at our best.
We need to know what those are so we can repeat them and be at our best more often.
We have understood the laws of the physical world for a long time. But our inner world has remained a mystery.
To achieve what is possible and experience the quality of life we want for our children and ourselves, we need our inner lives broken down for us the way skills are broken down in a sport.
That is what The 9 Inner Mechanics provide for us.
Discipline & Grit
Resilience & Toughness
Character & Integrity
These 9 are already at work within you, and always have been.
They shape your performance and your experience.
They determine how consistently you are at your best and your risk of falling short of what you are capable of.
The way you use your Inner Strengths and Mental Fundamentals is what I call your "Inner Form."
Good leadership training programs have been around for decades. But as good as they are, they have not solved the problem of poor leadership.
The Mechanics of Leadership can stand on its own as a next-level leadership training, but that is not the point. The point is that coaches, leaders, and parents need to know the underlying mechanics of what is going on when we are effective in these areas.
That means you could have an excellent leadership development program and keep it. The Mechanics of Leadership would be the most effective way to help your people get even more out of it.
The Mechanics of Leadership by Aaron Boe
In the 7 years I spent working to identify the Inner Mechanics, I also found the most helpful science on these major factors and broke it down into the mechanics for each major topic.
Small changes can greatly improve Connection, Trust, Influence, Motivation, Recognition, Accountability, and Culture.
Knowing the mechanics of these 7 critical factors gives coaches the fastest way to reach a new level of success.
In The Mechanics of Leadership, Aaron Boe teaches The 5 Tools to Craft Culture and explains how you can work backwards from The 9 Inner Mechanics to use those 5 tools for great results.
But we can also take a step back and consider a more complete approach to analyzing culture and what determines its strength and weakness, as it relates to what is most important.
The critical factor of culture and how to strengthen it should not be such a mystery.
Aaron Boe identified the 18 Factors & Points of Leverage that reveal a culture's level, strengths, and risks.
Bring Aaron to help you identify weaknesses, strengthen your culture, and prevent problems.
The stakes are too high for guessing. Bring the Inner Mechanics to your team, athletics department, or organization.
