The Clue Lead® Model

The Clue Lead® Model was originated from Doctor of Science (Economics and Business Administration) Pekka Kurvinen's dissertation in management and his decades of experience as a business management consultant.

Clue Lead® examines creative professional's inner speech, the fragmentary, narrative mental image. Clue Lead® provides an input in the study of professionalism, management and narrative discussion. It concentrates on the individual, implicit narrative, empirical desires, needs, and motivation through emotions.

The purpose is to discover the life historical meaning-making of creative professionals, how they modify the meaning-making in order to cope in their lives and profession.

By employing the methods of reading the global meaning and thematic reading Clue Lead® questions how the creative field takes into account the professional as an active agent, as a subject, as a part in the exercise of power, and as a producer of meaning.

According to the Clue Lead® Model, creative professionals can be categorized into four meaningful types; which are Working Bee, Conqueror, Rebel and Dropout. By utilizing these types and thematic reading, Clue Lead® helps to understand the professional preferences, personal desires, needs and motivated selection criteria of a creative professional.

Inner speech sheds light into the fabrics of change that are essential in changing organizations. Inner speech reveals the impact change has on an individual level. Strong ethics, values and a professional desire are an essential part of the interactive professional ethical atmosphere.

Competitiveness of a creative organization is situated in the immaterial capital, high expertise, and commitment and experiential competence of the personnel. Value-based leadership, shared leadership and leader-member exchange are innovative processes in which power and responsibility are shared.

Utilizing these processes it is possible to manage the organization in an optimal way.

Clue Lead® training and consulting is available also in English.
