ay checks can´t build passion. Only if you love what you do, will you be great in it!

We believe that if you invest in your people, they will grab the opportunity to develop and grow, since every living system strives for growth. Show them that you care about them and they in turn will care about your customers. Invest in them and they will pay it back.

Our approach to any development measure is to identify with you your specific needs in the light of the context and environment you are dealing with, then provide the most appropriate interventions that are not only pragmatic and hands-on, but seeks to connect and bring change at a mind- and heart- level.

n organisation is run by people and to us, leadership is key to the organisation’s success. As a leader, you make the difference. The level of commitment your people bring to their roles, whether they are just ‘doing their job’ or whether they give all their intelligence, heart and passion into what they are doing is very much dependent on how you are interacting with them.

We perceive leadership as creating an environment that is trusting, empowering, collaborative, open and sharing, so that every employee can live and give his full potential.

On your path of becoming a great leader, we see ourselves as your sparring partner, enabling, encouraging and challenging you, stretching you and elevating your aspiration from being just a manager to being a great leader. Our suite of leadership development programmes includes tailor-made leadership labs, executive coaching, and full leadership development journeys and retreats.

“We consider intellect and the ability to think clearly as essential prerequisites for leadership. But intellect alone doesn’t make a good leader. Leaders realize a vision by motivating, inspiring, inspiring, listening to, and convincing their employees – and above all by generating resonance.“ Daniel Goleman
“No creature can fly with only one wing. Really good leadership is only possible when heart and mind – feeling and thinking – play together. These are the two wings of a successful leader.” Daniel Goleman
“The most dangerous leadership myth is that leaders are born – that there is a genetic factor to leadership. That’s nonsense; in fact, the opposite is true. Leaders are made rather than born.” Warren Bennis
“The most important part of your professional wardrobe is your personality. Wear it with style.” Woody Wilson
“You manage things; you lead people.”
Rear Admiral Grace Murray Hopper
“A great leader’s courage to fulfill his vision comes from passion, not position.” John Maxwell
“The four keys of great leaders: (1) When selecting someone, they select for talent … not simply experience, intelligence or determination. (2) When setting expectations, they define the right outcomes … not the right steps. (3) When motivating someone, they focus on strengths … not on weaknesses. and (4) When developing someone, they help him find the right fit … not simply the next rung on the ladder.” Marcus Buckingham
“The first responsibility of a leader is to define reality. The last is to say thank you. In between, the leader is a servant.” Max DePree
“Become the kind of leader that people would follow voluntarily; even if you had no title or position.”
Brian Tracy

“The opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth.”
Niels Bohr

onflicts are omnipresent in our lives. They occur just because people are different – they think and feel differently, and have needs and wants that sometimes do not match. The critical factor in any relationship is:  how get conflicts resolved, not how many conflicts occur. This is determining whether a relationship will be healthy or unhealthy, mutually satisfying or unsatisfying, friendly or unfriendly, deep or shallow, intimate or cold, peaceful or violent.

To us, conflicts only make diversity visible and contain a great chance to create something, that is more complete, greater, wiser, more joyful, happier, more beautiful, than the separate pieces before. We believe the most exciting and powerful question in any conflict is what your share to it is rather than what the other party did or did not. Because we cannot change anybody but ourselves.

Our approach is to clarify who is really involved, to look behind the differing positions in conflicts to understand the needs of all parties involved, to make them visible and to translate them into a non-offending, need-oriented language.

We see ourselves as your sparring partner, enabling you to face your fears and encouraging you to constructively and assertively resolving conflicts instead of blaming others. On your path of becoming a brave conflict resolver, we support you through conflict coaching, tailor-made conflict resolution seminars and mediation workshops.

“Whenever you are in conflict with someone, there is one factor that can make the difference between damaging your relationship and deepening it. That factor is attitude.” William James
“Every conflict we face in life is rich with positive and negative potential. It can be a source of inspiration, enlightenment, learning, transformation, and growth or rage, fear, shame, entrapment, and resistance. The choice is not up to our opponents, but to us, and our willingness to face and work through them.”
Kenneth Cloke and Joan Goldsmith
“The more we run from conflict, the more it masters us. The more we try to avoid it, the more it controls us. The less we fear conflict, the less it confuses us. The less we deny our differences, the less they divide us.”
David Augsburger
“Nobody likes conflict, but sweeping issues under the rug ultimately causes more damage than addressing things directly.” Sharon M. Rivkin
“The wars between people are a reflection of our own inner conflicts and fears.” Jack Kornfield
“Conflict is inevitable, combat is optional.”
Max Lucado

hanges are an inherent part in our daily lives. And the changes we are facing today are faster, more complex, more interdependent and more cross functional than ever before.

It would be naïve to try to resist change or to believe that things remain as they are.

Many organisations however are trapped in the belief, that they could tackle change by implementing a new tool or a new standard. They focus on asking questions about how and what, rather than why. They focus on the delivering the defined requirements rather than on delivering an expected outcome. They focus on the solution rather than the benefit of the solution. They focus on processes and business plans rather than on the people who shall bring the change to life.

We strongly believe in embracing change rather than fighting it.

To us it is key, to first of all create a sense of urgency in the organisation. The lack thereof will scorch any change immediately. This aside we believe in a strong, compelling and appealing vision. People got well accommodated in their current situation (no matter how bad it is) and it needs an idea, a vision, that people want to be part of, something meaningful, that is bigger than they are.

We see ourselves as your sparring partner in designing the overall change process, encouraging to foster a sense of urgency, challenging you in creating a vision and supporting you in involving your people. Our suite of change management programmes includes tailor-made change processes and workshops, change and innovation labs, transition coaching, and change management seminars.

Gary Hamel

n a fast moving and complex world, organisations are more and more forced to think and work in projects. At the same time management often believes that delegating a task and naming a project manager is all it takes to ensure a successful outcome. Project management seems to be a black box and should be done on the go, without creating extra effort or costs. The project assignments are unclear in their objectives, resources are not clearly allocated and committed and the scope is rather vague. The assigned project manager is often the subject matter expert with no disciplinary power. This is the framework organisations create for their most important, crucial and sensitive topics.

To us project management is a holistic approach to design, create, ensure and maintain an organisation’s future. We see ourselves as your sparring partner, enabling, encouraging and challenging you, stretching you and elevating your aspiration from just delegating or fulfilling tasks to defining and achieving ambitious objectives. Our suite of project management includes tailor-made project management programmes, seminars and workshops, facilitating kick offs, as well as project manager coachings.
