Roll up your sleeves and start shaping your future state.

At some point, doing what you’ve always done just doesn’t cut it. And seeing things differently feels nearly impossible. Our learning labs enable you to refresh your team’s perspective and rekindle their creativity. They are proven processes that make change imaginable and desirable, while allowing you to test drive and fine-tune a future state to ensure success. It’s time to step inside the possibilities like you never have before.

Breakthrough Accelerator

Engage in fast-cycle simulation and modelling of your next innovation.

The Breakthrough Accelerator is a proprietary process—unique in its forum, methods, and tools. It enables you to foresee what’s needed next as well as the new direction or innovation that will get your there. It’s particularly useful for individuals and organizations looking for reliable ways to experiment with their boldest ideas. The Breakthrough Accelerator can also be used to practice critical behaviors associated with change management, including ways to overcome resistance and fatigue when trying to implement something new in a larger system.

Problem-Solving Clinics

Boost your team’s capabilities while helping them address pressing issues.

With each developmental stage of an organization comes the need for specific problem-solving capabilities. Through a facilitated discussion of your most pressing issues, we introduce your team to the problem-solving capabilities they now need. Using the experiential process of solving problems at hand, team members get a real-world opportunity to practice these new and critical problem-solving skills while receiving in-the-moment feedback to ensure success. This culture of collective and simultaneous learning and problem solving builds authenticity and camaraderie in the situations that need it most.

Video Reviews

Record meetings and teamwork for video feedback that inspires growth.

Senior leadership teams and cross-functional teams can get bogged down by everything from poorly designed agendas to disruptive interaction patterns. One of the most effective ways to overcome this is to employ a proven method and tool that athletic teams and performing artists use all the time: video review.

Using simple, unobtrusive technology, like an iPad, we will video record key meetings. We will then select either breakthrough moments to illuminate what worked, or revisit times when the team felt they could have performed better. In either case, we go beyond talking about what’s on the recording to introducing new protocols and actually practicing new behaviors. Because so much of an organization’s day-to-day work involves the need for teams to address complex problems, why not utilize a proven methodology to boost this ability?
