Reflective Action Planner: An Innovative Coaching Tool for Leadership Development

In today’s fast-paced business environment, effective leadership requires self-awareness, insight, and the ability to act intentionally. To support leaders in navigating their development journey, Kt Core Solutions created the Reflective Action Planner (RAP) - an innovative coaching tool designed to combine reflective and reflexive practice with measurable, actionable outcomes.

Reflective Action Planning - An innovative coaching tool designed to measure and track leadership development

What is the Reflective Action Planner?

The Reflective Action Planner is a practical, evidence-based tool that enables leaders to:

• Gain clarity on their development journey

• Track progress through measurable micro-goals

• Support ongoing personal and professional growth

By bridging the gap between internal reflection and external contextual understanding, the RAP empowers leaders to understand their own experiences while recognising the impact of their actions on others and their organisation.

How the RAP Combines Reflective and Reflexive Practice

KT Core Solutions’ RAP integrates two complementary approaches:

1. Reflective Practice - Drawing on Gibb’s Reflective Cycle, leaders explore experiences, behaviours, and outcomes to extract actionable insights.

2. Reflexive Practice - Using our proprietary E-SCAPE model, leaders expand their awareness to understand how their actions influence their teams, organisation, and wider context.

   
   

This combination ensures that leadership development is both self-aware and externally effective.

Innovative Tools Embedded in the RAP

To further enhance the coaching experience, the Reflective Action Planner is complimented by tools such as the Integration Matrix, which helps leaders:

• Identify where they currently sit on the spectrum of reflective insight and reflexive capability

• Highlight strengths and development areas

• Create actionable micro-goals that can be tracked and measured

These tools provide structure, clarity, and accountability, making the RAP a powerful resource for leaders at all stages of their journey.

Why the Reflective Action Planner Works

The RAP is more than a theoretical framework - it is an innovative, scientifically-informed coaching tool that:

• Combines evidence-based models with KT Core Solutions’ proprietary tools

• Provides insight into both personal and organisational impact

• Tracks development progress through measurable steps

• Supports sustained, values-led leadership growth

By giving leaders a clear view of where they are and how they are progressing, the RAP empowers them to make meaningful changes and achieve measurable outcomes.

Supporting Leaders to Thrive

Whether navigating complex challenges, leading high-performing teams, or preparing for organisational transformation, the Reflective Action Planner equips leaders with the insight, structure, and confidence to develop continuously.

At KT Core Solutions, we are proud to offer the RAP as part of our commitment to innovative, ethical, and results-driven coaching. It’s more than a tool - it’s a partner in sustained leadership development.
