Collective intelligence refers to a set of tools and practices aimed at making the whole more than the sum of its parts:

• It is the cross-fertilization of multiple intelligences in a group, where each one manifests the will to contribute and cooperate equitably in the service of the common good.
• To accompany its emergence, facilitation postures and processes make it possible to open and maintain this space of living together differently where trust, authenticity, creative energy, interrelationships and interdependencies are cultivated.
• Collective intelligence gives substance to sustainable projects that combine relational innovation and sustainable results. It helps to benefit from the contribution of each individual's talents in achieving the group's objectives, to define proper roles and choose the right people to take on these roles within a project team.

Solution-Focused Management is a powerful and practical way to stimulate a positive change in people, teams and organisations. You identify what already works and do even more to realise useful changes. The focus is on what is actually possible – instead of analyzing problems or causes –encourages managers to stop with something which does not work and to do something different instead. Different principles characterise this approach: simplicity, cooperation, focus on strengths, the possibilities and resources of the organisation and the people who are part of it.

The focus lies on the interaction between individuals and teams and makes individuals responsible. Possibilities from the past, present and future are investigated. Exceptions and small changes are used to reaches the wanted goals. Every case is viewed individually and the expertise on how to solve the problem lies with the person or the team who wish to see a certain change.

Recent studies from the Positive Psychology show that one of the most important factors in making you feel good about yourself is making use of the qualities you have. What do we actually know about our inborn talents and qualities? In our Western society there was so far not much interest in answering this question. According to the original work of the Strengths Movement in the US, a talent is a stable way of thinking, doing or feeling which gives positive results, more inborn than developed. It concerns our brain which made connections in our childhood which we used to adapt to the world around us.

We have talents which distinguish us from others. With our approach you will firstly identify these talents and actually make them your own. Also you will find support in a great internal richness within yourself to further develop these talents into real strengths.

The Enneagram is a powerful tool to discover how we function and to make links with our mental, emotional and instinctive reactions. Through this you will become more aware of who you are and why you do what you do. If you combine the insights of the Enneagram with self observation, you have a powerful compass to know exactly how much closer you are getting to discovering you own internal capabilities. The Enneagram is a complex yet accessible model which helps to truly understand what is behind your thoughts and feelings.

Since 1970 this ancient model has been in constant development and has been tweaked and refined by psychologists and has, meanwhile, been recognized by big and small organisations alike in different countries world-wide. The model is revolutionary in terms of self-development, leadership development, emotional intelligence as well as communicational skills.

Personal Branding is useful if you want to display your talents to develop an activity which is coherent with who you are. Whether you are an employee, consultant, manager, independent entrepreneur or an artist, the principles remain the same. There are three steps:

• Extract: discover the jewel in you, the unpolished diamond.
• Express: polishing this diamond, making it sparkle in the eyes of those looking at it.
• Exude: ensuring that this diamond is worn every day.

Developing your own brand means that you apply on yourself all the principles which make a brand strong, rich and recognizable. By highlighting your best aspects, you give yourself the best chance to get work which gives you the most satisfaction. You can really be yourself and develop your own personal touch.

The point is to make room for that what brings the most energy, stimulates commitment and make you feel you’re moving forward and fully using all your talents, skills and experience. Wellbeing and looking after yourself is more than physical relaxation and stress management. We will have much more lasting impact when we share experiences and knowledge which will tell us more about our capabilities and give sense to our actions.
 

The best is probably to combine the two! With this in mind, we have developed a unique programme to get to the source of what brings us wellbeing and internal strength.
