Maximise your potential by equipping yourself with vital problem solving and communication skills today
With the world changing and knowledge now easily accessible through avenues such as the internet and AI, it has become more important to learn the right skills and build the right capabilities to differentiate ourselves and succeed.
Skills such as problem solving and communication help us to navigate life and manage daily issues when they arise. It helps us feel in control, empowered and have lower anxiety when facing new situations. And it is demonstrating these crucial skills that helps us succeed in progressing our careers. It is these skills that help us manage relationships and life, and the challenges and opportunities that come with it.
Despite these skills being so critical, most traditional educational institutions and workplaces do not explicitly teach these skills, and many miss out on maximising their potential.
Our Story
Mind Frame Grow Adults was created to help address skill and capability gaps within adults.
Schools and Universities predominantly focus on explicitly teaching knowledge so when adults are trying to enter the workforce or are seeking promotions or career progression, they may lack vital skills and capabilities to best leverage their knowledge, resulting in missed opportunities.
Mind Frame Grow fills this gap and explicitly teaches structured problem solving, communication and change management tools and frameworks (modified from the management consulting world where we often deal with the most complex problems and stakeholders) and grows these vital skills and capabilities through practical and meaningful application.
The result is an empowered adult who can make more strategic decisions and better manage their own time, career and wellbeing - someone who feels prepared and confident to approach any challenge or opportunity in life.

Our Purpose
“ We exist to engage minds, enable with tools and frameworks, and empower by facilitating meaningful application in order to grow vital skills and capabilities in adults, so they can approach any challenge or opportunity with confidence to succeed. ”

Our Learning Modules
We offer learning modules on Structured Problem Solving, Structured Communications and Change Management, specifically tailored to adults at different life and career stages.
The modules follow a balance of explicitly teaching tools and frameworks (modified from the management consulting world where we often deal with the most complex problems and stakeholders) as well as practical application (using examples and scenarios meaningful and relevant to participants).
Each learning module has been designed to also leverage effective learning strategies online and to cater to various learning styles, in order to maximise engaging, enabling and empowering our participants to meet specific learning outcomes.
Structured Problem Solving
Structured Problem Solving follows a structured process of diagnosing a problem and developing meaningful and evidence-based solutions that address the root causes or drivers to achieve the desired outcomes.
Foundation Module
Through explicit teaching of tools and frameworks during facilitated workshops, participants will learn and practice how to identify root causes or drivers and develop meaningful and evidence–based solutions by breaking down problems in a structured and logical way, researching and analysing data, synthesising information, and identifying insights in teams. They will also learn how to take a structured approach to creative brainstorming.
Structured Communications
Structured Communications follows a structured process of harnessing the power of storytelling to communicate key messages (orally or in reports) in a concise, engaging, logical and compelling way.
Foundation Module
Through explicit teaching of tools and frameworks during facilitated workshops, participants will learn and practice how to use storytelling to communicate and present key messages in a structured, concise, engaging, logical and compelling way, both orally (Meetings, Presentations, Public Speaking) or in written format (Applications, Reports). They will learn how to communicate in teams and building confidence in speaking up.
Change Management
Change Management involves the focused efforts to help enable the effective transition of organisations, teams and/or people to where they desire to be.
Foundation Module
Through explicit teaching of tools and frameworks during facilitated workshops, participants will learn and practice leveraging structured communications, managing and influencing stakeholders, and embedding the right supporting enablers. They will learn how to consider change management when it comes to organisations, teams or even themselves.

Testimonials
I find the modules to be highly engaging, relevant, and interesting. The valuable knowledge it provides is applicable to both one's personal and professional life. Luckshie, is phenomenal. Her teaching style is both captivating and enthusiastic, making learning enjoyable. The hands–on approach taken in the modules is superb, as it allows us to apply the concepts learned in real–life scenarios.
Luckshie's teaching ability is exceptional. I came to class excited to learn and left with new skills and ideas every week. These modules will help anyone with their personal and professional life.
Luckshie explains concepts clearly, is very engaging, and demonstrates her wealth of experiences very well. The interactive nature of the workshops forced me to stay concentrated and always think critically in my head while doing so. I am truly inspired and very grateful.
The quality of the teaching was awesome and I had a great experience doing group work with my team. Content was presented in an engaging way and everything was organised to the tee.

Workshops / Programs / Learning Modules
WHO WILL BE OUR WORKSHOP FACILITATOR? Luckshie Haran, the Founder of Mind Frame Grow, will be your Workship Facilitator for every Learning Module, regardless of the Program selected. Luckshie is skilled in facilitating online workshops and has created each Module based on her extensive experience as a Management Consultant and University Lecturer. Please see the About Us section to learn more about Luckshie’s background. HOW ARE WORKSHOPS RUN? Workshops will be facilitated by our Founder, Luckshie Haran and will be delivered live and online through a mix of explicit teaching and interactive exercises where participants would be facilitated to work through relevant and engaging tasks in teams of 4-5. Online Workshops will be delivered via Microsoft Teams using a combination of the main online room as well as break out rooms during group work. The facilitator will visit each break room to help guide discussions. ARE THERE ANY MATERIALS I NEED PRIOR TO STARTING MY LEARNING MODULE? You need to come on time, ready for each Workshop with a notebook and pens / pencils. All other materials will be provided / shared prior or during each Workshop. HOW DO THE THREE LEARNING MODULES RELATE TO EACH OTHER? The modules are designed to build on each other as per the MFG Learning Pathway ©. Though, not compulsory, attending all three will enable a deeper understanding and result in greater impact - a participant’s learning will continue from learning how to solve a problem, to how best to communicate that solution, to then how best to drive sustainable change stemming from that solution. Though it would be beneficial to attend the Modules in order as per the MFG Learning Pathway ©, it is not necessary nor compulsory. However, by doing so, you will also gain a deeper understanding of what is learnt in the modules and we also may refer back to discussions in previous modules in order to reinforce learning.
