How We Do It
CONSULTING SKILL MAKES DEVELOPMENT EXPERIENTIAL & INSPIRING
We design experiences and conversations that drive transformation and behaviour change. We blend in-market, simulation, technologies, residential, multi-source feedback and coaching to accelerate competencies, behaviour & mindset change. Everything we do is customised to enable your results, but we also appreciate the importance of scale.
Self Aware & Self Regulating Leaders:
- Multi-Source Feedback: 360 feedback, assessment coaching make development personal not theoretical.
Pragmatic:
- Future Made Real: The future made real & in the room through futurist perspective and adaptive scenarios.
- Natural Setting: Take learning in-market to the natural setting where leadership and skills play out. If we can’t then find the next best thing: role players and simulations.
- Commercially Real: Disruptions revealed, stakeholders in the room having real conversations.
- Results: Action Learning to apply skills and insights to live commercial opportunities.
Inspiring Learning:
- Blended Content: Integrating content and thinkers from Neuroscience, Academics, Creatives, the Arts, Psychology & Biology.
- Maximum Reflection: Minimum powerpoint, maximum reflections.
- Philanthropic: Can we do good while learning? (we think so).
Technology as an Enabler:
- Multi-Sensory / Untethered: Mobile technologies offer new potential to make development more interactive and out of the classroom to more inspiring and challenging physical space.
- Collaboration: Interaction in the design. Cloud enables crowd sourced ideas, pulse taking in real time. Capturing ideas and photos.
- Gaming and Simulation: Like pilots, let your leaders learn and fail safe!
