Who we are
Our approach
We help you to shape your future!
This is important in a business world, that is undergoing technological and societal changes in a frequency, form, and rate that is unprecedented. Therefore, we strive to understand the futures of work in order to enable leaders and employees to create modern workplaces together, that are relevant to all employees and to customers in a world of constant change.
- We want to inspire 1,000,000 leaders to be part of our movement to create organizations, where people want to show up.
- We want to ensure, that the leaders and organizations we help transform and develop, really grow in a positive and engaging way.
On the list of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals by UN, we work for number 8: “Decent work and economic health”. All our activities support that. We only want to partner with customers, who work for a better world. We uphold the right to say no to customers, who don’t work for a better world, or customers, that in direct action – or by not acting – counteract any of the UN goals.
Also, we have a kindness budget for organizations and people, who need our help but cannot pay for it.
Our purpose – our WHY!
We envision a world, where the global problems are solved through technology and global collaboration. This requires radical new approaches to direction, leadership, innovation, and company culture.
We contribute to solving these problems by focusing on the human capabilities in the organizations; by focusing on direction, leadership, innovation, and culture, both on C-level and everywhere in the organization; by enabling next practice leadership and adaptability; and by establishing and nurturing direction, leadership, innovation, and culture at organizations, who strive to fight the Global Grand Challenges. We enable you to shape your future. And we enable you to create a workplace where freedom is at center, not fear. We want to create organizations where people want to show up! This is our WHY. Anything we do and say will support this.
