They are (1) Reflection, about managing self; (2) Collaboration, about managing relationships; (3) Analysis, about managing organizations; (4) Worldliness, about managing context; and (5) Action, about managing change. The IMPM program and other programs by Henry use the mindsets. CoachingOurselves is used to create programs based on the Five Mindsets.
