Action Events

Action events are designed using applied social and behavioral sciences along with evidence-based strategic management practices to create conditions that support growth in an ever-changing landscape. Action events accelerate organizational learning and perform a stabilizing function whether the event is part of your organizational maintenance strategy or whether it is an intervention for existing difficulties.

Events can be virtual, onsite, offsite, summit-like, retreat-style, or whatever format is appropriate for the desired outcomes. They can be a one-time thing or we can design a series of events to reinforce the change you'd like to see in your organization. Regardless of approach, we aim to design events that accomplish your goals and produce measurable results.

Events can be used to:

  • Ground environments with a high degree of unknown variables

  • Introduce or reinforce continuous learning mindset within company culture

  • Add experiential learning activities and thought leadership to company events

  • Develop leadership skills within management and teams

  • Expose new ways of approaching a problem

  • Create action plans and/or strategic plans

  • Support successful planned change

    • Reorganizing leadership or team structure

    • Mergers/acquisitions

    • Implementing new policies/procedures

    • Large projects that impact multiple teams/departments

    • Strategic planning
