Our Mission and Passion
We are committed to the study, practice, and experience of emergent creativity for relevant business results and
positive social transformation. We are stewards of the new paradigm of creative, generative, conscious work
that simultaneously serves the self, others and the good of the whole. Our mission is to evoke organizational systems, and the people within them, to life – to become
engaged, enlivened and energized – for greater enjoyment, engagement, meaning and effectiveness. We help foster the
ways of being, thinking, strategizing and acting that set the stage for new levels of creativity to emerge and the system
to evolve to its next level. Our passion is to first
unleash, and then purposely focus, the creativity in a system into an innovative culture and develop the new structures that
can sustain it.
The Core Assumptions Informing
Our Work
• Everyone is creative and simply
need the right conditions to access that infinite well.
• Focused creativity is not separate from the bottom line,
but a major factor in contributing to it.
• Next-level innovative solutions require new levels of being as well
as thinking.
• Comfort with change increases with consistent practice entering unfamiliar territory in non-habitual
ways.
• People can transform their experience of uncertainty from one of fear to one of discovery.
• Creative
thinking skyrockets motivation and breeds more relevant and successful contribution.
• With safe cocreating, a group
collective intelligence takes over and the “whole exceeds the sum of its parts.”

How We Work
We synthesize different disciplines together to help organizations thrive in the paradigm of innovation, invention
and expression we are now in. We use an integrative body of knowledge, tools, experiential wisdom and our Creative Emergence
Process. Believing that people will expand into their environment, we integrate multiple dimensions of creative experience
into all of our work. These processes accelerate learning and development by whole-brain, whole-person creating with a focus
on practical results.
Our Approach Includes:
• Asking you novel questions
•
Listening to you - what is underneath
• Ideating, designing and establishing the creativity and innovation "container"
• Engaging you in the process of discovery and emergence
• Drawing out your next-level solutions from you - using
whole-brain creative processes
• Supporting you in implementing your solutions
• Coming back
and supporting you in evolving those solutions
Working at Intersections
Creativity happens at intersections. We work with
you at the intersections of personal and organizational goals; what exists and what's emerging; internal drive and external
responsibility; thinking and feeling; passion and purpose; and reflection and action.
Beyond Thinking
It is not enough to analytically understand creative methods and
principles to be able to enact them. To become a generative, innovative, change-centered organization requires the real life
experience and emobodiment of these new ways of thinking, perceiving, creating and being.
Integrated
and Customized
Our process is informed by research and
experience in the fields of creativity and innovation, depth and positive psychology, human and group dynamics, organizational
development, complexity sciences, integral theory, archetypes, systems thinking, community building, NLP, somatic intelligence,
improvisational theater, the arts, accelerated learning, movement, storytelling, mythology and real-time experience.
We use “left-brain” analytical methods combined with “right-brain” visual and kinesthetic approaches.
Based on your goals, we assemble the team best suited for you. It may be one person or more. We get to know you and your situation
- that determines who serves you and how.
