Understanding Human Movement
Before performance outcomes can be reported, the human movement behind them has to be understood and measured.
Rickter turns structured human conversation into evidence of what matters, what the individual would like to be different and what has moved—while keeping meaning and ownership with the individual.
FROM individual meaning TO ORGANISATIONAL INTELLIGENCE
For the Individual
The Life Board enables the individual to articulate what matters, establish their current position, explain what that position means and identify a Desired State. They choose a commitment and, at review, see insights into what has or has not moved, what contributed and what matters next.
For the Practitioner
The Impact Management System preserves the individual’s articulation alongside their positions, commitment and Movement Evidence. Practitioners can return to the meaning behind the scores, understand the individual’s experience of change and shape the next conversation without relying on assumption.
For the Organisation
For the Organisation
De-identified Movement Evidence can be considered across individuals, groups and programmes alongside patterns in what has been articulated. Organisations can understand where change is occurring, what may be contributing to it and how delivery should respond.
