Tools.



We are researcher-consultants.


Our mission is to advance the frontier of knowledge
by developing the most advanced and proven tools
for leadership and innovation.  


How?


Great research does not happen in vitro.

It comes only by engaging in application projects 

with pioneering leaders.


We act in a continuous circle:
we learn from the most advanced organizations →  
build new theory →
confront our assumptions with other scholars → 
develop and test unique tools → 
apply them in our consulting projects → 
learn and start the cycle again
thus constantly advancing our frameworks and tools.

Books and Publications.


... to understand and reflect deeper.


Some of my writings are part of a scientific dialog with other scholars. Other writings (like my books and my articles on the Harvard Business Review) are conceived to support leaders in their projects and growth.

... to try and grow, in your own case.


We deliver workshops, educational programs, mentoring and coaching tailored to your specific needs.
