Elevate Clients Get SLAPD

Elevate Clients Get SLAPD Elevate clients are getting SLAPD left and right, and they’re not only happy about it, they usually end up getting other executives around them SLAPD too. Sometimes, they even move to new jobs and ask to get SLAPD there! You could say they are SLAPD-happy. Why Read more…

Iterating in plain sight

One of the more interesting challenges in founding a company focused on bringing agility, advanced facilitation, and radical alignment to leadership teams is that we don’t have existing language to describe much of what we do, even to our most trusted partners and customers.

What you do is magic!

What you do is magic! (But I have no idea how to tell my colleagues what it is…)   “There’s magic in what you do, here, but I don’t know how to describe what it is you do. I just tell them ‘it’s agile for the whole business.’ ”   Read more…

How do I process empathy interview results?

This is a guest post by Rosemary Astra-Blossom, an amazing woman I’ve worked with on several recent workshops and events. When she asked for guidance on how to process the results of the interviews, and I responded with “It’s hard to describe, I’ll have to show you” and then walked Read more…

What is an empathy interview?

A customer recently asked how I defined an “empathy interview.” Because she needed to explain it to the leadership team around her, I needed to provide a better answer than my typical stammering about “understanding” and “being ready” and “connecting.” As all good engineers would do, my next effort was Read more…
