About the CAVE Assessment for Project Managers

Project Management Performance requires professional knowledge and skills, but it ultimately relies on the project manager’s ability to effectively and efficiently use the latter so that to promote sustainable results.

The CAVE Approach© for PM aims to help project managers to comprehend and value all aspects of their performance, and provide them with the tools to develop them. Aiming to serve both excellence and sustainability of performance and results, it complements the traditional PM competencies and KPI’s with the virtues which are the underlying fundamental factors that greatly define any other aspect of performance.

Specifically, virtues can help Project Managers to consistently apply, effectively and efficiently, their knowledge, technical skills and PM competencies in order to best serve the projects’ purpose and goals while promoting the best interest of all stakeholders, including themselves.

Specifically, the CAVE Approach© for PM enables project managers:

  1.  to fully identify and desire the sustainable results in any particular context within a project, both external outcomes in various stages of the project, and individual internal states, and 
  2. to identify and manage all their personal parameters of performance so that to achieve the desired sustainable results effectively and efficiently.

The competitive advantage of the CAVE Approach© is that it offers a virtues-based system to understand and manage performance that combines two unique benefits in performance management; firstly, it is comprehensive as it covers all the fundamental human qualities that define results in every particular context. Secondly, it is universal, meaning that it provides people with criteria to manage their performance that fully apply in every context, enabling us to interpret reality in a consistent way, to eliminate conflicting behaviors and actions, to facilitate decision-making etc., and overall manage performance in a unified way.

At CAVE-Human Development & Wellness Consultants – cave.edu.gr/en we believe that as members of a global society we all ought to be the best we can. The ultimate goal behind every other smaller goal in our life is to be happy and content through self-actualization, and become from a “potential being” an “active being”, the best we can. We care to develop people, not just skills. We care to build the mind, not just transfer knowledge. We care to educate people, not just train them. Cave education is a potential booster aiming to help people & organizations discover, unlock and develop their capacity to achieve their goals while leading a well and meaningful life that promotes common good.

The CAVE© Approach – https://www.thecaveapproach.com is the first methodology worldwide for the systematic development of the Aristotelian virtues. It was developed by Anastasia Moira, a senior consultant in the field of Human Resources Training & Development, and researcher in the field of sustainable management and leadership who established the Aristotelian virtues as the fundamental capabilities of Human Development and Sustainable Development. The CAVE© Approach has contributed to the global inquiry on sustainable performance being presented and mentioned in a number of international scientific conferences and publications. Also, it has been applied in businesses and organizations as well as in private practice as a development tool, and it has been incorporated as a sustainability component in certification trainings in diverse disciplines. It is the first methodology that combines the project management competencies with the virtues, offering virtues-based solutions tailored for sustainable project management performance.
