Partnership proposal · Prepared for RTG

The DIMES Strategic Leadership Framework
Leading with Whole Self – Body, Mind, Soul & Social

  • This page shows how our two frameworks — The DIMES Strategic Leadership Framework and Leading with Whole Self: Body, Mind, Soul & Social — align with and add value to RTG's already robust curriculum.
  • Developed by Dr. Walter V. Murray, these frameworks have helped thousands of business owners, leaders, and managers accelerate strategy implementation and reach their goals faster, more efficiently, and more profitably.

Below, we show how the elements of our frameworks connect with the elements of RTG's curriculum.

Here's one way this could work:

We will pair our two frameworks — The DIMES Strategic Leadership Framework and Leading with Whole Self: Body, Mind, Soul & Social — and customize a value-add cohort, class, or training that aligns with RTG's training objectives. Customizable Collaboration Offerings. They are templates, so we will tailor them to meet your needs.

This entry point is intentionally scoped small — a way for RTG to experience the frameworks directly with one cohort before we discuss a broader curriculum partnership, ongoing faculty collaboration, or multi-cohort engagement.
