Our Leadership and Team Development Programs

This innovative  series of indoor and outdoor adventure-based leadership and team development seminars is designed to  improve individual and team performance in interpersonal communications, effective problem  solving, risk mitigation, delegation, mediation, management and leadership competencies.  Executed at sites close to a client's facility or at some of the most remote and beautiful  locations in the world, these dynamic training experiences assist teams in building  greater trust, dealing with ambiguity, overcoming false assumptions, sharing resources,  developing collaborative work strategies, and practicing trust-based teaming. These  programs allow our clients to accomplish, in days and at much lower cost, what months of  effort and hundreds of thousands of dollars applied in traditional on-site consulting  interventions cannot accomplish.  (See Leadership & Team Development)

Advanced Diagnosic & Polling Strategies

In addition to our  one-on-one interviews, small focus groups and paper surveys, we offer a range of advanced  diagnostic and polling strategies. These provide our clients with more in-depth,  scientifically accurate and user-friendly information about their organization, the  marketplace, competition, customers, and future economic and social trends. These methods  not only give clients a clear picture of what is happening, they go much further and offer  a clear set of recommendations regarding what they can do about it. And they do all of  this, and much more, in a timely fashion and at a cost that is generally less than other  research and polling methods.
Application of  these diagnostic and polling strategies has resulted in the successful introduction of new  products and services, alleviation of union/management disputes, creation of winning  political campaigns, increase in circulation and audience of major media companies,  implementation of a national health care and auto insurance programs, design of new  financial services, and the integration of divergent corporate cultures resulting from  mergers, acquisitions, and strategic partnerships.
