Quick Start Guide

This is the shortest path from an empty organization to a live program. It takes about five minutes of setup, and nothing here is permanent — every setting below can be changed after launch.

If you are setting up for a large or multi-region organization, read Setting Up Your Organization first. It covers the structural decisions that are awkward to change once people are in the system.

Before you start

You need one thing: an administrator account. Everything else is created as you go.

It helps to have decided who the first cohort is — a specific team of ten to thirty people, rather than “the managers”. A narrow first cohort gives you a clean adoption signal within weeks. A broad one gives you an average that tells you nothing.

What you are building

HABICUB delivers development as a dated sequence of small actions rather than a course. The structure is the same at every scale:

• A Development Plan holds one to three competencies for one person.
• Each competency contributes Development Goals, and each goal its Development Tasks.
• The plan compiles into a Development Journey: fifteen MDAs — Micro Development Actions — each on its own date.
• A mentor reviews what comes back and replies.

The five steps below create exactly that.

After the first week

Do not judge the program on completion. Look at the two numbers that actually move:

• Answered vs received — are people engaging at all?
• The gap between them — where in the sequence do people start dropping?

Driving Engagement at Scale covers what to do about each.
