Creating High Performance Leaders, Teams & Cultures through Connection.

Why Connection?

The Problem: Our People Are Distracted, Disengaged And Disconnected​

Trust, empathy and compassion are plummeting. Change and transformation efforts are getting stuck, productivity is declining and shame, blame and a lack of accountability are rife. 

Our workplaces have the lowest levels of belonging and engagement ever recorded:​

79% of workers worldwide are disengaged ​
Over 50% are lonely and disconnected​
Over 50% meet the criteria for burnout

Connected Cultures Have A Competitive Advantage​

Connection is the bedrock upon which great, high performing cultures are built. It underpins stand out leadership, drives individual performance, bonds teams and breaks down organisational silos. ​Connected Cultures outperform on all key metrics, navigate change more smoothly, recover from downturns better, learn, collaborate and innovate more. Connection exponentially increases belonging, performance and retention:

+34% higher results ​
+36% increase in well-being
+59% more positive relationships
+92% more professional growth
