Hindsight to Insight: The Gibbs Cycle (Part 2)

Send us Fan MailIn part two of this two-part special episode of the Balanced Leader podcast, I introduce the Gibbs Cycle as a formal tool which can help listeners go deeper in their reflective practice. I explain how the model can enhance reflective practice by offering a structured approach to analysing experiences. Through six detailed stages—Description, Feelings, Evaluation, Analysis, Conclusion, and Action Plan—listeners are guided on how to dissect and learn from various situations to foster personal and professional growth. I also share a personal example to illustrate each stage of the Gibbs Cycle, providing listeners with practical insights into effectively reflecting on their experiences. I discuss the benefits of regularly engaging in reflective practice to improve conflict resolution and leadership skills, and encourage listeners to apply these methods in their daily lives.
