The best leaders know their personal growth determines the success of their organization. And that the situations they avoid, when faced and leveraged, have the greatest potential to move their vision forward in exponential ways.

So for your organization’s mission to succeed, you must simultaneously develop strategic execution and leadership capabilities.

And for the people in your organization to function as a cohesive and wise entity, you need new ways of doing… new ways of listening and being with what makes them uncomfortable… and new ways of being with one another.

It’s because...

The leadership team is focused on strategy and execution, without building inner capacity among the people needed to implement change.

They’ve overlooked the necessary work of getting people on board with uncertainty and relating with one another in more meaningful, co-creative ways as they invent the future together.

Most people find uncertainty and change uncomfortable. They default to what they know. This results in a default future that will occur on its own unless there is a clear and intentional way to make a choice for something different to occur.

What does the ‘space in between’ mean?

There is always a space between what happens and the action we take in response. Even when we’re moving fast. Even when we’re under pressure. Even when passions (and tempers) run hot.

When leaders and teams operate from this space, they access clarity, right action, and expanded perspectives that bring what has looked impossible suddenly within reach.

How we serve clients

WORKSHOPS

Our multiday, experiential workshops focus on two areas: understanding individual strengths, blind spots, and interconnectedness; and developing the collective charter, purpose, and culture of conflict and flow. From there, we fully customize the engagement to your situation and growth objectives.

TEAMS

Our work with groups starts with observing team dynamics at meetings and work sessions. Then we use group coaching to guide the team as they do their work in real time, ingraining best practices that generate sustainable, innovative results.

INDIVIDUALS

We coach individuals to recognize the motivations underneath their behaviors, so they can change behaviors to get the outcomes they want. These are custom engagements designed to support you deeply as a leader, professional, and human being.
