A.C.T.I.V. helps you lead with presence and impact — step by step.

The 5 Steps of A.C.T.I.V.

A — Ask & Add Value: Influence starts with curiosity and generosity. Ask questions to understand others' needs, then offer something meaningful in return — insight, help, or connections.
🧠 “What matters to them, and what can I give that helps?”
✅ Check-in: Did I really listen and offer something of value?

C — Challenge to Grow: True influencers push others beyond their comfort zones. Share bold perspectives, raise the bar, and help them see who they could become.
🔥 “How can I stretch their thinking or performance respectfully?”
✅ Check-in: Did I push them forward, not just keep them comfortable?

T — Teach to Think: Don’t just give answers — help others develop their own insight and judgment. Share your reasoning, frameworks, and mental models.
📚 “How can I guide their thinking instead of feeding solutions?”
✅ Check-in: Did I build their thinking instead of giving a quick fix?

I — Involve the Right People: Bring in voices that matter — mentors, experts, or stakeholders. Create a shared stage, not a solo show.
🤝 “Who should be part of this to boost credibility and buy-in?”
✅ Check-in: Did I bring the right voices into the process?

V — Voice It with Conviction: Influence needs clarity and energy. Speak with purpose. Be confident, concise, and compelling — in tone, body, and words.
🎤 “Do I believe in this enough to say it boldly?”
✅ Check-in: Did I speak clearly and with confidence?
