EUROCLEAR:
TEAM INNOVATION
The Challenge
This executive team had the opportunity to be more than the sum of its parts – to make better use of its collective skills – to enhance innovation. In order to help foster creativity, the Chief Executive Officer identified the need to challenge the team’s traditional affiliative style and increase its comfort level with constructive dissent, viewing it positively.
​
The Approach
Physical Intelligence techniques were used to address collaboration and innovation and challenge silo’ed thinking/protectionism. Participants were introduced to posture and breathing techniques to achieve low cortisol and alert relaxation, essential for innovation and to develop the mental strength and clarity to manage their threat response in the midst of innovation – linking their mindset to physicality. They learned what types of movements support convergent vs. divergent thinking and how to relax their minds to foster creative connections. As a team, they collaborated on an exercise designed to promote divergent thinking and constructive dissent and learned how to counteract negative bias. They also learned the importance of networks and social intelligence as opposed to silo’ed thinking to create an environment that fosters the ongoing exchange of ideas.
​
The Physical Intelligence group session was followed by one-on-one coaching on the use of physical intelligence techniques to reinforce the core concepts introduced during the group session and provide individual support tailored to each team member.
​
The ROI
Within only weeks of the training, it was clear that the team was working together better and interacting in a more effective way. Each individual’s performance and level of confidence had clearly improved. Within months, operating results had increased, feedback from clients had improved, and the team had received excellent feedback from regulators. In addition, because executive team members were more empowered, they, in turn, more effectively empowered their teams, freeing up more time for the executive team to work on strategic planning vs. tactics. As new individuals have joined the team, they have recognized and commented positively on the open collaboration and constructive approach the team takes and its comfort level with challenging each other’s thinking. On a personal level, the physical intelligence training had also positively impacted the personal life for many team members, enabling them to more effectively manage their professional and personal lives.

SOMERSET LEISURE:
HIGH PERFORMANCE LEADERSHIP
The Challenge
A local authority responding to funding cuts and a restructure needed to become a financially viable enterprise quickly. Mindsets had to shift to think in an enterprising way. A large and despondent team of managers needed to step up to the task
​
The Approach
Physical Intelligence brought High Performance Leadership Behaviours to life. We gave each behaviour a movement and a thought process. These were explored in a workshop in which memorable learning and insights were drawn out through a creative physical experience. Managers were invited to re-create and represent visually some of the real dilemmas they faced. This helped to draw out hard data from emotional scenarios, equipping them to deal with the challenges ahead.
Developing Solutions, Flexible Thinking, Understanding and Openness were just some of the behaviours explored. We enabled delegates to build a capacity for better performance through stronger personal and collective behaviours.
​
The ROI
"A week after the programme, 20 business improvements were logged; there was an unprecendented level of enthusiasm and focus. Three months on, with vivid pictorial memories to remind us, every manager present has created a plan for improvements in their area of responsibility and submitted it to the CEO. We are really tackling the need for a changed culture and structure now. Attitudes are contagious.....are yours worth catching?"

"Some of the most stimulating and innovative approaches to embedding leadership skills that I have ever seen. HR will be seeking the Value for Money award for bringing in inspirational training."
