ForMi - a transformational approach to developing people

ForMi - much more than an App!

Award-Winning Personal Development and Wellbeing App

ForMi is the catalyst for meaningful conversations and joined-up support.

ForMi is a person-centred planning and outcome recording tool for employees or individuals receiving personalised support. The system makes the whole planning, goal setting and review process come alive and gives ownership to the individual, which in turn motivates them to achieve and develop. It supports engaging conversations where an individual and their aspirations can be understood and goals developed that are aligned to their strengths.

ForMi consists of three parts:

The App - which individuals use to record progress and communicate with their Circle of Support. It has a similar feel to social media newsfeed.
The Control Panel (Desktop) - Administrators use this to manage the system. Mentors work with the individual to record a strength-based profile, set goals, and review and recognise achievements and progress.
The Story Wall - this is a mini website specific to the individual which houses all their key accomplishments and qualifications.

Outcome Focused

With the support of a Mentor, each individual creates a strength-based personal profile and set of outcome focused goals. Actions are also agreed that will support the individual to achieve each goal.
These are jointly reviewed at regular intervals, including a judgement of progress against each goal on a 0 to 10 scale. Uniquely, the Individual captures their achievements through words and pictures on a Smartphone, very similar to a newsfeed used on many social media apps.
This has the result of empowering the individual to take ownership of their own development and progress.
The App

One of the most unique aspects of ForMi is the linked Smartphone App. This can be used by individuals to make posts on a timeline, similar to many social media apps. These posts record achievement against their goals and provide a rich story of progression. The App can also be used as an information and communication tool between the individual and their Mentor and the Circle of Support.
If professionals are involved in supporting the individual, the App enables a more joined-up approach. Each person can see how the Individual is progressing and provide encouragement and additional evidence of achievement.
Circle of Support

An agreed Circle of Support works with each individual to provide encouragement, coaching, feedback and additional evidence of progression. They also have access to the individual’s story, seeing their achievements in real time. This in turn enables recognition to be given on a continuous rather than periodic basis, and contributes to increased wellbeing.
The support circle can also include people who sit outside of your organisation, thus connecting all the people who are involved in supporting the individual to keep up to date with their goals and progress.
