When the todo-list gets overwhelming and the background noise too loud to focus on your vision, you know it's time to slow down.

We believe it's worth decelerating the change, redefine what innovation means.

Innovation for the next decade. Not human-centered, but planet-first and most of all humane.

You are an entrepreneur, a founder, a team leader, an activist, a community organizer.

You feel stuck, like you're running in place, the day doesn't have enough hours, you could do more, or you're not getting to the important stuff.

You need to slow down, recalibrate your processes, focus on your purpose, and enable others to do their best

It's tough to build your own company, lead a team or manage growth. We'll guide you to slow down just enough to recalibrate and focus on what matters to you and the people you serve.

Re-Drawing the Map

By honing back in on your purpose we re-evaluate why you're doing this in the first place. Whether it's just you or a whole team, getting clear on why you're working so hard is essential. We think of purpose as the north star. It's not the goal, but the direction. As long as we're heading in the right direction, we can deal with curveballs as they come our way (and they always come).

Next, we'll map out the landscape you're traveling through. From competitors to regulation and stakeholders. By taking a step back we can identify key milestones to reach, borders you want to cross, and boundaries you need to stay away from.

Traveling Light

Walking is a lot faster than driving if you're visiting your neighbor two doors down. And too much tech is as bad as not enough.

In this phase, we'll start to optimize your processes one at a time. Is there baggage you are dragging with you that you can leave behind? Where do you lose a lot of time on busywork, while the important stuff gets left waiting another day? We'll identify and get rid of the distractions so you can get on with work.

This might include tweaking your tools, adding automation, or upgrading your tech. But it might also be the opposite, concentrating on fewer "productivity" tools, so you have more time to work, or simply clarifying processes and making information easily available to those who need it.

Setting Guardrails

How will you know you're on the right path? Or better, how do you know you're all moving in the right direction?

Finally, we'll set you up with your own toolkit of templates, rituals, and checklists to help you check in and recalibrate every now and then.

Culture is what happens when people share time or space together, and if we leave it up to chance or algorithms, culture can get toxic. Learn how to create a culture that empowers and connects everyone it touches.

We're only as good as our connections, be it in person, or remotely over video calls. Working in isolation provides huge challenges, especially as menial tasks get automated and human creativity and problem-solving skills are more important than ever.

Our workshops are designed to help you refine how you connect; as a team, a community, or as an individual.

We've been working with exciting clients in the education, insurance, finance, tech and coaching, and wellness industries. All projects have the same question at the core:

How can we grow the business while leaving a positive impact that goes further than the next quarterly report or the monthly engagement stats?

The answers often include technology, always include a decent conversation, and usually end up being simpler than expected.
