Your Discovery Roadmap

The NLP Free Discovery Phase Roadmap gives you a simple, step-by-step view of the entire process. It shows how each session connects, how insight develops, and how the sequence helps you think more clearly and move forward with confidence.

This page is a high-level map — a calm, structured view of the journey ahead.

The Discovery Phase at a Glance

Here is the Discovery Phase in its simplest form:

1️⃣ Session 1: Vision & Direction
→ Reflection
2️⃣ Session 2: Leadership & Stakeholder Insight
→ Feed-Forward + Insight
3️⃣ Session 3: Behavioural Intelligence & Strategic Focus
→ Integration + Next Steps

Each part builds on the previous one.
Each step sharpens your thinking.
Each conversation moves you closer to clarity.

Session 1 → Your First Clarity Step

The journey begins with a structured conversation exploring:

• your goals
• your challenges
• your opportunities
• what success means to you

You leave Session 1 with a clearer sense of direction and a simple reflection to complete.

This first step sets the foundation for the entire process.

Between Session 1 and 2 → Guided Reflection

You complete a brief, guided reflection (no more than 20 minutes).
This helps you return to Session 2 with:

• clearer thinking
• better insight
• stronger answers

This is where the first real breakthroughs often occur.

Session 2 → Leadership & Stakeholder Insight

Session 2 explores how you operate in your professional world.

You may use:

• The Marshall Goldsmith Leadership Assessment
• Stakeholder Feed-Forward (briefed in Session 1)

This gives you an external perspective — a view of how others experience your leadership, contribution, and potential.

Between Session 2 and 3 → Feed-Forward Conversations

The feed-forward conversations happen here.

These brief, future-focused conversations consistently produce:

• practical suggestions
• clarity
• new possibilities
• immediate behavioural insight

This step alone creates remarkable shifts in understanding.

Session 3 → Behavioural Intelligence & Strategic Focus

The final session integrates everything.

You explore:

• your behavioural patterns
• how you respond under pressure
• your decision-making style
• your strategic direction

Depending on your goals, we may use:

• The Global ICQ Psychometric
• The Value Proposition Blueprint
• Executive Coaching Check-In Framework

This session brings the whole process together.

After Session 3 → Your Path Forward

By this point, you have:

• a clear vision
• leadership insight
• stakeholder input
• behavioural understanding
• a grounded sense of direction

We then explore your options — including 1:1 NLP training, leadership coaching, or an independent next step.

There is never any pressure.
Only clarity.
