Merge Two Powerful Driving Forces To Transform Your Organisation

Rubicon: Leadership Competency Process (Rubicon: LCP) MASTERCLASS is the Century Management signature program. This masterclass is a powerful, proven, personal, professional, team and organizational transformational process that maximizes human potential, intellectual capital, personal excellence and creates team and organizational systemic transformation.

It has been described as ‘a life-changing experience’ and a ‘professional eye-opener’ by many of the more than 100,000 men and women who have experienced it. (It provides a natural progression from the Crossing the Rubicon Personal Leadership Strategies WEBINAR).

The Rubicon masterclass is a self-contained, comprehensive program that focuses on equipping leaders, high achievers, managers, business owners and professionals with higher levels of competency mastery, personal effectiveness, interpersonal skills and team contribution, culminating in sustainable organization advantage.

The Rubicon: Leadership Competency Process MASTERCLASS is a Strategic Human Performance Improvement (SHPI) process with three distinct elements:

The Rubicon Leadership Competency Model (above) provides a systematic process of defining, measuring and developing important competency gaps. It also provides extensive job and people management indicators to help the individual and the organization blend into a successful match.

The three steps in the process are:

  1. Definition: First, we define key accountabilities and benchmark the job and critical parameters surrounding the position.
  2. Measurement: Second, we measure the most important personal/professional, team and organizational competencies and measure them against the best-practice job benchmark.
  3. Development: Third, we develop and implement appropriate solutions to bridge the competency gaps and align human performance interventions with the strategic thinking and planning of the organization.


The Leadership Competency Model is a systems thinking and planning approach. It helps link people, learning and performance to achieve better results and sustainable strategic advantage.

It is talent management in action.

Competencies provide an integrated framework to describe role requirements, family job clusters and performance issues. Comparing the competencies of individuals with best practice job expectations can provide a platform to more easily deliver superior results.

That is what strategic human performance improvement is about – ‘tangibilising’ the intangible by defining, measuring, developing and achieving the strategic human performance competencies essential for sustainable competitive advantage.


Beneficial outcomes can be gained at personal, professional, interpersonal, team, organizational and customer levels as follows:


When the foundation of personal, competency mastery and interpersonal effectiveness becomes embedded, the benefits of all previous and subsequent experience, learning and development are enhanced. This creates the basis for transforming personal, team and business performance and results.


More than 100,000 men and women have attended the Rubicon: Leadership Competency Process, in one form or another, over the last 15 years it is regarded as world class’ and life-changing, so you are starting a journey that is tried and tested. Here is an example for a family business:

Each of the elements of the Rubicon: Leadership Competency Process is expertly facilitated into one ‘whole’, using multi-rater and self-assessment instruments. The ‘completeness’ of the process equips each manager and team with the key management and leadership competencies required to meet your specific needs and objectives.

Specifically, each individual will address issues of self-mastery, emotional intelligence, skills development/enhancement and openness to change, through the realization that for change to be effective at organizational level, change as a process must begin at the personal/professional level.


Beyond Change To Transformation

Just as managers need to transform their thinking and behaviour to become leaders so also organisations need to recalibrate, reinvent and develop new business models to recover from The Great Crash of 2009

The component parts of Rubicon Leadership Competency Process are as follows:

Rubicon 1: Defining and Benchmarking the Job demonstrates the importance of bringing clarity and focus to the parameters of critical jobs in an organisation. The challenge of the transition from ‘good to great’ in a knowledge-based economy starts with a new appreciation of human capital. In addition, human capital management and measurement starts with this job exercise.



Rubicon 2: Measuring Your Competencies is an essential step in any human performance improvement initiative or whole company intervention. From selection and induction through talent retention and succession if you can put the right person in the right position you dramatically increase their potential to succeed. Measuring the match between the person and the job is made easier by scientific profiling on the internet.


Rubicon 3: Developing Your Competencies is the signature part of the Rubicon process. It’s where you explore the significance of master principles and best practice tools and techniques to cross the Rubicon. Critical topics are explored from personal and organisational blockages to critical success factors that high performers in all disciplines utilise on an every day basis. Turning talent into competency excellence is the goal.


Rubicon 4: Action Commitment Exercises allows the theory to be translated into personalised and customised action points. Just as all learning starts with good theory so also does all change start with commitment to taking action and then implementing the planned action. ‘To know and not to do is not yet to know’ was how Confucius put it. This is the execution blueprint which you keep by your side all year round.
