What are the Do components of the Be-Know-Do model?

• A. Leading, Planning, and Executing.
• B. Directing, Developing, and Achieving.
• C. Leading, Developing, and Achieving.
• D. Leading, Mentoring, and Assessing.

Answer: (C)

The Do component focuses on the actions a leader takes to accomplish the mission and build the team. The three Do behaviors are Leading, Developing, and Achieving. Leading means guiding others, making sound decisions, and taking responsibility for tasks. Developing covers coaching, training, mentoring, and creating growth opportunities for subordinates. Achieving is about delivering results, meeting standards, and effectively using resources to complete the mission. This trio best fits the Do aspect of the Be-Know-Do model because it captures the active leadership behaviors that produce outcomes and develop people. Other options mix terms that aren’t part of the Do triad—Directing is not the specified Leading term in this model, Planning and Executing refer to different phases of work rather than the Do actions, and Mentoring or Assessing are more about development or evaluation than the core Do actions.
