Our services

a brief overview of ways we can work with you

This page only lists the range of types of services we offer. For more details on specific services, follow the links.

We like engaging with the concrete challenges of our clients. It is a mutual partnership in which you gain from our theories, models, and practical experience. And we refine our frameworks and practices by putting them to the test of serving your specific needs.

For more details about our consulting services, see:

We can also use our frameworks and models to review your initiative or conduct various types of research for you. This includes:

  • inspecting the maturity of communities of practice and proposing maturing strategies
  • assessing the value created by communities of practice
  • researching a topic of your choosing

These services include working with your organization and producing a report. 

For information about the types of review we can do for you, see:

We give keynotes at public or private conferences,  academic conferences, and closed events. This can be online or face-to-face. In both cases, we always try to include some interaction with the audience, either as part of the keynote or in a follow-up session. We prefer joint keynotes, in which we can interweave our diverse experiences and perspectives.

For smaller groups, we also offer webinars on various topics.

And for readers of our books, we offer “conversations with the authors.” This is especially useful for college classes and reading groups.

Event support

Convening events that open spaces for significant learning is a delicate art.

We help design and run events with a view to developing the learning capability of the group. This happens when participants take initiative, use their imagination, and express their uncertainties–creating a space in which they can learn to make a difference they care to make, individually and collectively.

We have a long experience of supporting the convening of events to give this much-needed social learning twist. It is especially useful in the convening of complex events that bring together multiple voices and perspectives. It includes dealing with conflictual situations and difficult cross-boundary encounters.

We can support conveners in preparation, design, facilitation, and follow-up.
