8 DISCIPLINES
OVERVIEW
“The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step,” is from Dao De Jing, one of the oldest most widely read wisdom books ever published. Depending on the prospective client needs, we generally start with one step within The Eight Disciplines, then follow the path as it unfolds on the way that best serves the client and gets them their desired results.
Our approach removes common obstacles and management constraints. There are countless ways to approach the development and management of a healthy organization. We help owners, executives, and key contributors create a framework of conversation and perspective that results in understanding and action.
