BLUE OCEAN LEADERSHIP GRID

The Blue Ocean Leadership Grid developed by Chan Kim and Renee Mauborgne is an analytic tool that complements the Leadership Canvas and helps you formulate your blue ocean leadership profile that can unlock the ocean of unrealized talent and energy in your organization.

This is an action framework that drives you to find out what leadership activities should be eliminated, reduced, raised, and created to create a step-change in leadership strength and achieve high impact with a lower investment of time.

The tool drives you to ask four questions that challenge the current leadership reality:

Eliminate: Which acts and activities do leaders invest their time and intelligence in that should be eliminated?
Reduce: Which acts and activities do leaders invest their time and intelligence in that should be reduced well below their current level?
Raise: Which acts and activities do leaders invest their time and intelligence in that should be raised well above their current level?
Create: Which acts and activities should leaders invest their time and intelligence in that they currently don’t undertake?
