Feel like
the odd one out? 

You're not alone.

 

duck, duck, goose.

we're better together.

At Instinctive Solutions, we believe everyone has a place. We can all work together to achieve organisational goals and find self-fulfillment.

Sometimes, team members stand out in a way that is awkward for the team. Sometimes, it is us who feel as though we don't belong. The truth is, from time to time, we all feel like the odd one out.

If you’re feeling like a misfit, the goose in a pond full of ducks, you’re not alone.

 

Goose

Individuals

Do you feel like a misfit?  Feel like you aren’t contributing to your full potential?  That you are flying outside the “V” and bucking a headwind feeling tired and frustrated?  Or, are you in pain, or feeling like your wings have been clipped?  When you are working against your grain, fatigue, stress and pain can occur, making everything feel like a struggle.  

Flock

Teams

Every organization has teams of people that work together to contribute to the whole.  Each team is dynamic, and has its own goals of what needs to be accomplished.  In order to be productive and efficient, each goose in the flock must share, appreciate and respect the individual talents of every other goose in the flock.

Pond

Organizations 

Are you the leader of the organization?  You are responsible for the individual geese, the flocks, and the entire pond. You see the pond differently. You get to fly over at altitude and see how the entire pond is operating.  How do you keep the pond healthy?  How do you get the pond to thrive and sustain the needs of all the geese? Can you create the golden pond?

 
Watch Warren Barry in action as he walks you through the benefits of Kolbe and how it can completely restructure your workplace dynamics.
