Alliances
We are grateful for our long-term affiliation and friendship with Lyndee Berkley of Encyte Solutions LLC, Natarsha Hearn of Natarsha Hearn Group Pty Ltd and Wayne Philippi of Wolf Creek Partners Inc. Whether designing and delivering their programs, ours or hybrids, each brings mastery, passion and proven methodologies in the fields of human potential, leadership development, team systems and organizational performance. And, each is a delight to co-create and work with!
We are also aligned with The Centre for Dynamic Stability.
Diagnostics
We bring you many leading-edge tools, resources, practices and frameworks that we have experimented with, applied and adapted over the years. Some are built into programs and others are shared as needed. At times we work with diagnostic tools that raise awareness, reinforce key principles, accelerate learning, illuminate blind spots and map a path forward.
At present, the diagnostics we find most clarifying include The Structural Dynamics Profile from the Kantor Institute, DISC from Extended DISC International, The Leadership Circle 360 Profile from The Leadership Circle and The Team Diagnostic Profile from Team Coaching International.
