The DOLIX Model® is a dynamic, interconnected framework that highlights five essential actions proven to create transformational group coaching experiences.
Each action serves a purpose, and together, they fuel lasting change. Whether you're building your first group or refining an enterprise-level coach initiative, this model gives you a shared language and a repeatable structure for transformational results.
The 5 Core Actions
