If you want to take what CEO peer advisory groups do so brilliantly to help cross-functional and departmental work teams in your organization achieve new heights, reach out to one of our Peernovation Certified Facilitators today. With their guidance, they will help you leverage the models and frameworks that drive Peernovation using a simple three-pronged approach:
1) Pre-work and interviews with you and your team members to better understand your desired outcome, purpose, and long-term goals.
2) A half-day or full-day experience (depending upon the need) using Peernovation’s Five Factor Reinforcing Loop Framework©. The workshop experience inspires intentional conversations among team members that create clarity about expectations of one another, psychological safety, productivity, member-to-member accountability, and leadership. The Peernovation Workshop© serves as a unifying and empowering exercise.
3) Development of a follow-up report with recommendations for continued growth. *These recommendations may or may not require the ongoing involvement of a Peernovation Certified Facilitator.
Today, our program is offered in four languages (English, Spanish, French, Chinese) by Peernovation Certified Facilitators located on four continents.
