INNOVATE YOUR LIFE
Leveraging cutting-edge insights from neuroscience to thrive in an uncertain world
Our biological brains are responsible for everything we think, feel, perceive, say, plan, create, do, imagine, invent or believe. They are the astonishing product of the greatest innovator of all: nature.
Individually and collectively, how we use them matters, as they are the drivers of either adaptation or stagnation in the face of change and uncertainty.
As we expand our understanding of their underlying drivers, principles and mechanisms, so we gain new opportunities to “hack into” their functioning. This enables us to generate the novel connections, solutions and self-directed change which are at the heart of personal, professional, organisational and societal creativity and innovation.
We use the same brain whether we are leading an organisational change process, developing a poverty reduction programme, researching stem cells or promoting staff well-being. Thus, our unique brain-based innovation training and coaching, is entirely transferable across sectors, themes and topics.
Practical. Powerful. Surprising.
What Others Say
From leadership teams to diverse organisations across the globe, the words we most often hear are 'inspiring', 'surprising' and 'practical'. Here are some other things people have to say:
Brain-Hacks to Change The Way You Think
Simple Tools and Techniques
While our brains are astonishingly complex, our tools and techniques are simple and practical.
They enable you to combine your existing professional expertise with the ability to move beyond current perceptions, world models and paradigms and access new ways of thinking and acting. It’s not that one mode of thinking is inherently better than another.
Rather, it is about having the agility to be able to switch between different approaches according to the task at hand.
After all, if you only have a hammer, every problem starts to look like a nail. In a rapidly changing world, the versatility of a Swiss army knife is more useful.
No ‘gadgets, substances, super-natural powers or magical thinking’ are required; just a curiosity to explore how your extraordinary natural, biological brain works and the new possibilities this opens up.

Innovation Workshops and Coaching
CORE FOCUS AREAS
We offer in-house innovation training and coaching for individuals, progressive companies, civil society organizations, international organisations and the public sector. Workshops are in-person or online and last from a few hours to a few days, depending on how much depth you wish to go into.
Our focus is on helping people develop the type of innovation mindset which supports and underpins your existing approaches and practices. That is, to make innovation a way of thinking and acting at all levels, rather than just a process to be managed.
While most of our work falls under a few broad categories (see below), our approach is entirely flexible and modular. Thus, our tools and techniques can be adapted to suit any topic, theme or sector. Afterall, personally and professionally, we use the same brain whatever we are doing.
