About Us

Mission

To improve people’s lives through realignment of the complex systems in which they work and live.

Guiding Principles

Every complex environment and situation must be diagnosed, reframed and simplified for understanding – then re-oriented toward action.
Evidence Based Practice and Creativity should be in dynamic tension – Deploy what has been proven to work but disrupt, challenge, and evolve on the frontier to build and share new evidence
Details matter – Not everyone needs to be dragged through the minutia – But leaders need to know the subtle cruxes of complex issues.
Leaders need to have kindness and joy in their hard work to sustain their missions over the long run.
