How the GROW Model Works The GROW Model is an acronym standing for (G)oals, (R)eality, (O)ptions • and (W)ill, highlighting the four key steps in the implementation of the GROW Model. By working through these four stages, the GROW Model raises an individual’s awareness and understanding of: Your own aspirations; • Your current situation and beliefs; • The possibilities and resources open to you; and • The actions you want to take to achieve personal and professional goals. • By setting goals which are inspiring and challenging as well as specific, • measurable and achievable in a realistic time frame, the GROW Model successfully promotes confidence and self-motivation, leading to increased productivity and personal satisfaction. The Will element of the fourth stage in the model is the barometer of success. It relates to volition, desire and intention.
