A new way of working is calling.

It's time to transform how we collaborate and lead.

Join the Revolution.

Let’s create space for teams to do their best work and thrive in the face of change.

Work as we know it has fundamentally changed. We are more connected, automated, and distributed than ever before. Work is no longer just a means for financial security, it’s now a source of personal fulfillment and employees are making autonomy and flexibility a top priority. And yet the ways in which we interact and operate in the workplace have been slow to meet the demand. We are still stuck in old, broken ways of working that leave employees stuck in meeting marathons, with endless emails and approvals wrapped in red tape. We believe there is a better way of working, where people thrive, and thus organizations thrive too.

On a mission to help organizations become:

Human-Centered

Open-minded, autonomous employees that work and lead with empathy, inclusivity and humanity at the helm.

Shared meaning that powers every decision, unifies teams, and inspires people to do their best, most impactful work.

Resilient systems and a culture of transparency and continuous learning that can adapt in the face of changing market trends and customer needs.

Future-Proofed

Purpose-Driven

Services.

We help organizations shed the old, rigid hierarchical structures of the past and embrace fluid communication channels, cross-functional collaboration, and distributed decision-making power. Depending on the challenge, we use a combination of the offerings below to transform how teams collaborate and lead.

  • Bring Order to Chaos

    Align organizations on goals, strategy, and values.

    Improve systems and processes based on the organization's changing needs.

  • Spark New Ways of Working

    Build skills, practices, and rituals to help teams self-organize and strive for continuous learning and growth.

  • Embodied Leadership

    Unlock and maximize team potential through leadership coaching and management development.

  • Create Belonging & Purpose

    Unite teams through a shared mission in a safe, equitable space.

Lasting behavioral change starts with small, consistent practices. Our approach is centered in enablement with a bias for action. You are the best experts on yourselves and already have the solutions -- We’ll help surface and implement them through expert facilitation, coaching and skill building.

Approach.

  • We’ll take a look at the organization holistically and uncover where we're getting stuck and most importantly dig into the heart of the why.

  • Using values and purpose as our compass, we’ll decide where we’ll focus our energy first.

  • As early as possible, we pilot practices that enable small, but consistent behavioral changes. These pilots become opportunities to learn and evolve the practices as we go.

  • We’ll (re)design the systems to reinforce the our new practices, so they stick for the long haul.

  • Once we find change that works well, we’ll scale and spread it, ensuring that teams are fully equip to lead the way.

Human at the Helm.
