Applied Ontology Methods · The Body of Work
Six Methods Transform Your Human Operating System.
Six Applied Ontology Methods for how business leaders innovate new ideas, lead people, create the game, manage accountability, build a compelling brand, and maxinize team performance.
Not separate disconnected programs - one fully integrated unified system of autonomous components that can be applied in a unique way to your unique challenges.
The Distinction
Most programs tell you what to do and how to do it. But results rarely stick.
RothMethods upgrades how you operate, so you can tell yourself what to do, because you know better.
Learning a better process can help - but thisexternal learning is looking in all the wrong places. They are at best a temporary fix that never last. There is a hidden operating pattern underneath that is running your show, so things stays the same, the problems return.
You must learn to see when you are avoiding conversations.
You must mustse how you dilute messages to avoid confrontation.
You must give up your hidden agenda and commit to serving others.
RothMethods guides you in getting underneath your actions and results and takes you to the level Paul Roth calls Being.
Not some philosophy. The discovery of the hidden machinery within you, that limits your performance. And the recovery of your true self.

The Architecture
Being. Doing. Having.
Every Method works through the same Modular Learning Architecture. It upgrades how you operate, so you can maxmize performance. Rather than trying to change the results you are having by changing what you do, you learn how to change who you are being which is the source of doing and having.
Being
Who you choose to be in every moment shapes your actions that determine your results.
Doing
The actions you take are shaped by who you choose to be which shapes the choices you make.
Having
The results you produce are the product of the actions you take and the choices you make.

The SIX Methods
Six separate doors. One unified operating system.
Each Method stands on its own - but they're strongest when they work together as one body of work.
01
BDM
Blindspot Discovery Method
Seeing the machinery within that you have never seen. Once you can see it you can't unsee it.
This Method is the entry point to the process of achieving acomplete and permanent transformation.
It first guides you in discovering the ubseen Blindspot machinery that has had total power over shaping your choices. By exposing these hidden patterns of self-defeat you learn to separate from them.
Once that happens your machinery begins losing its power over you. It then guides you in recovering your true core values of who you truly are that you were always meant to be and always will be.
.
Best for leaders who
Can see the pattern but still stop at the same threshold.
Have tried many hings but still feel constrained.
Needs too start from the core and work oit from there.
02
ACM
Advisory Convesation Method
Transform your interactions with other from being agenda-based and out to get something into . . .
a commitmen-based advisory conversation designed to give what is needed.
In a sense every human being is selling all of the time and for better or worse these conversations have spoken our human world into existence. Selling becomes an act or posturing, pretending, or self-promotion that is disconnected from truth, we are sellingg lies. This Method restores our innate skill at conversation into it as a structured, advisory conversation based in selling the truth.
Best for leaders who
Need to speak a bold vision into existence, offer a major opportunity, or transform challenges into great accomlishments.
Resist selling because it feels like exploiting others, or seting them u to be entitled.
Want to generate a commitment to creativity instead of blind compliance.
03
CLM
Collaborative Leadership Method
Lead from shared commitment that makes high erformance possible.
Not positional authority that only engenders resentment and sabotage.
Most leadership problems aren't positional — they're relational. This Method builds trust and shared commitment across every team and conversation you're responsible for.
First by creating aliignment around a bold vision for the future.
Then by generating a game worth playing and worth winning for all involved in a growing enterprise.
Finaly by regulating activity and productivity to maximize performance.
Best for leaders who
Lead teams where compliance has undermined commitment.
Need leadership that generates trust, not just conformity to authority.
Are moving into a new levels of opportunity, responsibility, and accountabiliy wit greater risk.
05
GGM
Game Generation Method
Define a game worth playing and worth winning and insoire others to join in making it happen . . .
in a way that everybody who takes it on becomes a pat of the victory for the group and a victory for each contributor.
Most people work hard inside games they never chose. They follow rukes they had no part in setting. It is about ending a oife of going along with whatever happens and taking on creating a life worth living fully.
This Method defines the next level of play and is rooted in powerful aspirations, a cmmitment to make a real contribution, and being more consequential in one's ;oge, the lives of other, accross an enterprise and in one's world at large.
Best for leaders who
Can feel the next level but haven't found how to generated it.
Are outgrowing an old business model, and inventing a new one that may never have been considered before.
Want to make a real impact in the lives of others that clearly matters, not just succeed more for oneself, even at the expense of others.
06
tnm
Time Navigation Method
Stop managing time. There are 168 hours in a week - no more and no less.
Yet we face a daily surge of obstacles and opportunities called chaos.
We must stop trying to manage time and start navigating the chaos that comes our way.
Time management assumes the problem is your dailure to follow your calendar. It never is.
We must embrace two challenges. First time can never be managed because it is set. Second our biggest challenge is the chaos of the day which imposes both challenges and opportunites.
Time, like the weather cannot be controlled and we nust kearn to dance with the chaos so our actual time is better than our plan.
This Method turns the week from a battlefield of reaction and recovery into a commitment to conequential accomplishment.
Best for leaders who
Are constantly busy but not always being productive abd moving what matters.
Let the perception of urgency for the optional override commitment to what is esential or critical.
Need a new relationship to setting priorities and making and keeping promises made by themselves or members of their team.
07
AMM
Accountability Management Method
Turn promises into power.
Accountability isn't fulfilling our responsibility to get things done, it is also our responsibility to ensure that others get things done - and get them done on time.
It is not about applying pressure on oneself and others and it is not about surveillance as it watching to see if that happens.
It is the managed expression of commitments amoung members of a team and unleashing the poer of greater collaboration that comes from knowing they can trust each other to come through.
This Method makes team accountability visible, reliable, and alive.
Best for leaders who
Makes promises that are not consistently fufilled.
Need greater follow-through without repeated management.
Want commitment to get things done on time instead of the mere compliance with instructions.

Methods vs. Programs
The Methods are the core architecture of transformation.
The Programs are how you choose to engage with your work on you.
The Applied Ontology Methods define the RothMethods body of work. The Programs give you a pathway for applying that work to the specific key challenges you face and the unfreseen opportunities that emege.
Start here to understand the architecture. Go to Programs to find the right path for you at this time.

Begin the Work
The machinery within you will never change just because you understand it. You must drive your own process of transformation or nothing will change.
