A Powerful Collective
We are a nimble collective of experienced managers and independent consultants.
We are not a hit-and-run consultancy company aiming for maximal profit growth.
We team up with passionate experts to make great things happen.
We don't hire employees to do a job. We don’t “place” junior “resources” on “assignments”.
We are united by our purpose to reinvent transformations, inspired by science, guided by our values.

Not Just a Transformation Guide
I help organisations rethink how they transform their culture, strategy and operations.
I build on a lifelong passion for systems thinking and cognitive sciences, and over 20 years of experience leading and serving R&D teams through disruption.

Not Just a Lean Manager
I advise managers who are not properly served by typical leadership training and standardized solutions.

Maarten Vanherle
Not Just a Coach
I team up with leaders who want to help people grow, without just using carrots and sticks or hoping for the best.
My goal is to help you to be at your best so you can unlock potential. Yours and others.
Geert De Cang
Not Just an Agile Consultant
I team up with managers who want to install a leadership culture of inquiry, learning and curiosity.
My goal is to enable collective focus on goals and to eradicate the management fairytale that it requires decisive (stubborn?) execution of preconceived plans.

Not Just an Agile Mentor
I help leaders to create an environment where agile teams and common sense can thrive.

Our Values
Integrity First
The only person you are allowed to lie to is yourself. Thank you for that, cognitive biases.
In everything we say and do, we aim to be as honest and sincere as we can. We accept that the human mind is incredibly powerful and flawed at the same time.
When in doubt, we assume clumsiness over malice.
Driven to Learn
Curiosity is our fuel. Understanding is our engine. Science is our navigator.
We actively seek to grow our understanding of reality with an open mind. We value evidence and reasoning over confirmation bias.
Be Fair, Not a Fairy
Life isn't fair, but at least we aim to treat each other in a way that feels fair enough for all.
If something itches, even if it's a thing from the past, it is everyone’s personal responsibility to address it and listen to each other with this goal in mind.
Courage To Do The Right Thing
We aspire to be a different breed of trainers, consultants and coaches.
We have the courage to do what is right and show what we stand for with attitude. We demonstrate respect by challenging the crap out of each other and our customers.
We frequently do things that scare us.
Simple, Not Simplistic
We look at human nature and complex systems in ways that are easy to grasp and impactful, but we never oversimplify.
We stay clear of complicated methodologies because we are convinced that simplicity enhances comprehension and motivates action.
