Data on personal independence and self-reliance is abundant; insight about it is not. Most disputes about independence and self-reliance begin as a conversation that was handled badly. The programme uses small-group work so that each participant's treatment of the people management and development discipline is examined, not just described. Participants who influence personal independence and self-reliance without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. The version of the practice within people management and development described in the manual and the version practised on the floor tend to diverge over time. Benchmarking exercises repeatedly place independence and self-reliance among the areas with the widest performance spread. The programme builds the judgement to know which parts of personal independence and self-reliance to standardise and which to leave flexible. The course gives participants a defensible structure for independence and self-reliance and the judgement to adapt it. The final module sets out how progress on the wider people management and development agenda will be evidenced six months later.
