Services Offered
Strategic Planning Workshop
The group develops a vision of the future, plus mission statement, goals, objectives, strategies and action items. A brief period of yoga exercise starts the workshop to raise energy, improve mental alertness, enhance creativity, relieve stress and increase ability to focus on the task at hand. The outcome includes a complete action plan for implementing the strategic vision.
Problem Solving Workshop
The group acts as a team empowered to tackle a specific problem or set of problems and seeks creative alternatives to collectively reach consensus on optimum solutions. Action plans are developed.
Project Management Workshop
The group designs and populates a situational "war room" from which a significant project can be subsequently managed, monitored and directed. The group typically represents a cross section of the organization to provide accuracy and completeness of the overall design and measures.
Transition Management Workshop
For complex projects where the business processes of multiple companies must be effectively coordinated, teams from the stakeholder organizations develop and enhance mutual trust among their members in the workshop and generate a set of partnering principles for future interaction. Through exercises to establish team solidarity, the group defines common purposes, creates guidelines for making decisions, identifies potential stakeholder conflicts, and determines a series of action items going forward.
