It may take an expedition to develop a leader and unite a team.
For over 27 years we have been making organisational leaders more effective and organisations more ‘leaderful’.
Our approach is based on a simple metaphor:
Searching for Mt Alignment
All businesses need a common goal and vision.
All businesses need a clear path to their particular common goal and vision.
All leaders and team members need to be aligned to this ascent.
All need to understand their role in this common goal clearly.
We create high performing leaders and teams through the execution of meaningful programs and subsequent coaching with a commercial purpose.
Leadership development is now a very crowded place.
“Traditional approaches to leadership development no longer meet the needs of the organisation or individuals.”
“One of the biggest complaints we hear about is that the skills and capabilities developed don’t get applied on the job.”
HBR “The Future of Leadership Development” March 2019
We believe learning must evolve beyond training with the leaders and teams it is meant to support.
Our programs fully prepare leaders for the challenges they face today and those they will face into the future.
There is a revolution going on in leadership training - and we are proud to be at the forefront.
Beyond “Ra Ra” events
Our expeditions are thoroughly scoped and planned based on the individual needs of your organisation.
Ideologically led leadership learning and supporting activities ensure each expedition is unique and tailored to the business and its desired outcomes. This allows for teams and individuals to realise their full potential.
Where appropriate, we combine current theoretical content with proven experiential learning methods, which can incorporate original outdoor and adventure team building activities.
By skillfully weaving engaging and innovative experiential learning activities into the learning process, we are able to 'breathe life' into theory models. This allows participants to go beyond simply “understanding” and move into the realm of “application of learning”.
For the client, this results in higher levels of retention and transfer of learning into the workplace and therefore optimised leader, team and organisational performance.
To this end, we have our own experiential learning instructors, equipment and access to state of the art infrastructure. This includes High Challenge Course, rafting as well as a vast array of other experiential learning resources.
“I would like to thank Mike, Ron and Josh for such an amazing insight to not only leadership - but life. I felt that this residential allowed me to step outside of my comfort zone - and succeed. Thank you for believing in me before i was able to believe in myself. I am forever grateful.xx”
So, choose your own adventure with us.
Our Custom Programs
Leading Edge Programs
We understand that different people have different preferred learning styles, and this is reflected in our dynamic team development and alignment programs.
For any number of reasons, teams can often lead to a divisive and “silo” based culture which is inordinately expensive in terms of morale and productivity. Over 25 years of working in this field, we have developed a sound understanding of how to move thinking from a divisive silo-based outlook to either a “one team” model or a collaborative sub-teams model.
Our programs are custom designed based on a thorough scoping process. We then focus on the team by examining current behaviours and preferences using a combination of “tools” which may include experiential learning activities, individual and team profiling tools and discussion work.
Team Alignment
A Leading Edge Program is designed to support an organisational philosophy of developing people for the future.
It delivers learning and growth opportunities for leaders by primarily focussing on their individual development needs. It is part of a process that targets and implements purposeful growth in self, as a leader and as part of a team.
It is a continuous improvement process that involves personal coaching, blended learning, team learning experiences and expeditions.
“The experiential activities were great as they really made you think outside the square and collaborate with the team.”
Program Resources
Team Management Systems
The Team Management Profile (TMP) is one of the world’s leading psychometric profiling tools for personal, team and leadership development. Since 1985, the TMP has successfully delivered a framework for creating and sustaining high-performing teams for many of the world’s most successful organizations.
The Linking Leader Profile (LLP|360) provides leaders with a leadership profile that delivers: Critical insights into their work-related behaviour. A gap analysis of the extent to which they demonstrate these behaviours.
The Syncretics Group
Denis Perkins, from Syncretics, has studied leaders and teams facing the limits of human endurance — a place he calls The Edge.
As a result of this research, he has identified critical strategies that enable leaders and teams to reach their greatest potential in any challenging environment.
We are fortunate to be the Australian licence holders of his work.
Outdoor Education
We combine current theoretical content with proven experiential learning methods, incorporating original outdoor and adventure team building activities.
We skillfully weave engaging and innovative experiential learning activities into the learning process, and are able to 'breathe life' into theory models allowing participants to go beyond simply “understanding” and move into the realm of “application of learning”.
