What we are passionate about
Resilience is that peaceful certainty that you are ready, that whatever happens, your family is ready, that your business or organisation can handle a hard knock, maybe even get back up stronger than before. (Think of resilience as a mental equivalent of a well-trained cat: it always lands on its feet, even if it pretends it meant to fall.)
Sense-making is a set of skills and principles that help when direction is lost. As complexity increases, we need new ways of perceiving, being and doing. The top-down linear approach to fixing problems no longer functions when problems become more dynamic and interconnected. Using a top-down linear approach when tackling complexity leads to ineffective, sometimes counter-productive solutions. Sense-making helps understanding what is happening, and when a situation is well understood, it is half resolved. (The other half usually involves coffee and good timing.)
We are passionate about empowering people, families, businesses and governing bodies to grow more resilient. Resiliency has been trumped by hyperspecialized-financial-success for quite some time while our ability to make sense and find direction, is lost in complexity. A resilient person, a resilient business or a resilient organization are inherently good for all…and this is about to become a whole lot more important as we are entering a period of massive change on a worldwide scale. (Buckle up – the future’s not waiting for anyone to finish their latte.)
We offer workshops, facilitate, research and coach using a range of leading-edge tools and techniques to accommodate the various cognitive learning styles: presentations, audio and video materials, storytelling, art, performance, music, conversation and games. As such, you will find that working with us you will be in a, comfortable and empowering environment where everyone’s skills and abilities are valued. (And yes, even that obscure hobby you never thought was useful might suddenly make sense.)
Get in touch with us for an hour free consultation to assess your situation and give you an idea of what we can do to help. Your resiliency means the world to us. (Seriously – it keeps our resilience levels up too.)

“We all have to deal with difficulty and uncertainty because of the times we are in. Resiliency is a key subject we should all study individually and collectively. Katrine and Florian give us a broad array of psychological tools to increase our resiliency. As we all lose our stability and our sense of control, Katrine and Florian help us to focus on what we can still control: our mindset! If you feel exhausted by this never-ending pandemic, and I am sure most of you are, I strongly recommend this workshop. I am sure you will learn something that will help you to feel better! “
