Network Mapping Template
The Dynamic Development Plan Ecosystem
The Framework of Connection
Network mapping within the neuro, affirming framework is a process of unmasking the supportive architecture that surrounds a client. This template facilitates the identification of professional, personal, and therapeutic connections, shifting the focus from individual isolation to systemic empowerment. Grounded in the works of Lane Anthony, specifically Awakening the Workforce, this tool allows the Neurocoach and client to co, create a map of influence that respects the cognitive architecture and sensory needs of the individual.
