Accelerate your Adaptive Capacity

Discover two innovative frameworks for thriving in complexity!


For Leaders Navigating Unprecedented Change,


The challenges you're facing aren't signs of leadership failure. They're evidence you're navigating territory where conventional methods no longer suffice.

Join us in this enagging and inspiring workshop to explore what becomes possible when we shift to adaptive leadership when traditional approaches are faltering in today's turbulent environment.

In this workshop, we'll introduce our research on two transformative frameworks:

ACTIV(e) Framework for Leaders Discover the core skills that adaptive leaders cultivate to thrive in complexity:

  • Awareness of emergent patterns
  • Choice-making that empowers others
  • Trust-building through transparent communication
  • Insight through reflective practice
  • Vitality management for sustainable leadership


SPARK Framework for Teams & Organizations Learn how adaptive leaders ignite organizational evolution through:

  • Strategic sensing across all levels
  • Pattern recognition in complex data
  • Agile decision architectures
  • Responsive feedback systems
  • Knowledge retention through learning loops

What we love about these frameworks is how they transform both perception and practice. You'll discover the distinction between technical problems (where expertise suffices) and adaptive challenges (where collective learning is essential)—a distinction that immediately clarifies why some leadership situations feel so persistently difficult.

Workshop Objectives:

1. Reframe leadership in complexity

2. Introduce transformative frameworks for Adaptive Leadership and Organizations, bringing the nature concepts in!

3. Create a space for self-discovery, practice, and collective sense-making

Unlike most leadership programs that add more tools to your already-full toolkit, this experience focuses on expanding your capacity to read situations differently, mobilize others through uncertainty, and sustain yourself amid constant change.

The leaders who will define the next era aren't those with the most polished solutions—they're those with the courage to abandon practices that no longer serve, the wisdom to see systems rather than symptoms, and the capacity to mobilize others through uncertainty.

This event is restricted to 25 participants to ensure meaningful conversation.

With joy and excitment for new adaptive possibilities,

The Adaptivists
by the hands and hearts of Monica, Natalie & Alenka

We are the ones who sense the shift,
Who step with purpose when paths uplift.
Not bound by rules etched in stone,
We shape new ways—together, not alone.

With eyes that see what others miss,
We spark the change, we ACTIV(e) this:
From fire-fighting to sensing flow,
We choose with courage, learn and grow.

Our rhythm is breath, our compass is trust,
We turn silos to synergy, routine to just.
Where others see walls, we see loops and light—
A system alive, adapting in flight.

We are The Adaptivists—bold and clear,
Fueled by vision, grounded near.
With strength to lead, and space to feel,
We build what’s next—what’s human, what’s real.

In every challenge, spark and strain,
We find renewal, not just remain.
We don’t follow the future, we bring it to life—
With spark, with soul, with less noise, less strife.

Because adaptation isn’t reaction—
It’s creation. It’s connection.
It’s us.
