Replying to LO19492 --

I posed the "?" to a friend and colleague -- where did the model come from?
here's his answer
____

Yes, that model was Gordon's Skill Development Ladder that said that
people are Unconsciously Talented(Need awareness and training) ((Read
from the bottom up!))

The Ladder:

Unconsciously Skilled(Need challenges) Consciously unconsciously
competent

Conciously skilled(Needs practice) Unconsciously competent

Consciously unskilled(Needs training) Consciously competent

Unconsciously skilled(Needs awareness) Consciously incompetent

Unconsciously incompetent

-- Bill

Hope that helps!

[Host's Note: Again, the format of the table was lost enroute... Tables
with tabs usually don't travel well.

I assume the bottom stage is "Unconsciously unskilled (Needs awareness)"
and that the item to the right for each stage is where you go to when the
item in parenthesis is added. That is, "Unconsciously unskilled, with the
addition of awareness makes one consciously incompetent."

Many thanks, Joe! Now, who is Gordon? ...Rick]
