The GROW Model
Used to transition our product designers into influential “Design POs”.
How It Shaped My Work
Whitmore’s GROW model (Goal, Reality, Options, Will) has become a standard framework for one-on-ones and career development conversations. It’s helped me transition designers from individual contributors to product owners by guiding them through self-discovery rather than prescribing solutions.
