Creating What's Next
Vs. Fixing What's Wrong
Given the increased levels of uncertainty, anxiety, and challenges people are experiencing in our post-COVID work world, we believe now is the perfect time to upgrade our workplace practices and emotional well-being. In doing so, we work to expand everyone’s ability to get things done with greater ease, efficiency, clarity, and confidence.
Our unique tools, based on pragmatic infrastructures combined with an in-depth understanding of organizational dynamics and human psychology, are designed to amplify decision making, collaboration, innovation, and team-building across the enterprise, resulting in measurable increases in employee engagement, retention, and bottom-line results.
What we do
We collaborate with organizations, teams, and individuals who want to live more powerfully in embracing accountability for the achievement of their work and personal goals.
Our tools were developed with three key focuses:
- Expanded Human Resources Function that has an organization-wide impact on the culture and practices that enhance the holistic well-being of everyone at work
- Develop pragmatic, “clarity is kindness” operating infrastructures of best practices and standard operating processes
- Foster Possibility Partners relationships of mutual trust, respect, and psychological safety
Rearchitecting Work offers the possibility for individuals and organizations to realize their full potential – self-actualization -- the 5th need at the top of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs Pyramid: 1) physiological, 2) safety, 3) love/belonging, 4) esteem, 5) self-actualization
Organization Consulting, Individual and Team Mentor Coaching
Explore how bosses can become mentors; "How's It Going" conversations can replace performance reviews; colleagues can relate as possibility partners; and "inspiring ownership for results" can replace "holding people accountable" mindsets.
