WHAT'S THE

BIG IDEA?

Startups.  Established businesses.  Charities. Non-Profits. All have aspirations to be more successful.  Many have great ideas.  Others are looking for new ones.  The challenge for many is making it all happen. To innovate.

​

​

​

IDEATION is a different kind of practice. It is more than "idea-generation", it's also "idea- execution"; this is the foundation for innovation. We believe in the untapped and unrealized potential of our clients. We focus on their needs to help generate new ideas or act on those they have. We work with your thought leaders to create environments to foster thinking towards innovation. We help define strategic clarity, develop strategy and design plans for implementation. We inspire and challenge clients with what could be and work with them to what will be.

Action

"An idea that is developed and put into action is more important than an idea that exists only as an idea."

- Buddha

BRILLIANT...
               NOW WHAT?

Our premise is as a simple as A.B.C.

Aspire to achieve great things.

Believe you can make it happen. 

Create opportunities to succeed.

Is it your lack of Strategic Clarity?  Unclear or unfocused goals and objectives?  How are you measuring success?  Can you, can everyone in your organization, answer the following questions, clearly, concisely, and compellingly?  

  • Do you know what you specifically want to achieve?

  • Who is your target audience?

  • What is your end goal / intended impact?

  • How long will it take you? 

  • How are you going to make it happen? 

  • What will it take? 

​

Do you feel you need to generate new ideas to become more innovative - or at least more competitive?  We will work with you to "make it so"; challenging you to approach our time together (and beyond) with a creative mindset.

"There is nothing more powerful than an idea whose time has come."

- Victor Hugo

APPROACH
LET US HELP                                    GUIDE THE WAY.

We are energized by working with forward thinkers, those individuals who are driven to affect innovative change.

IDEATION's approach is "client centric". For us, it has double meaning. Think about it.  It's clear to us that you know your business best.  And yet for us to effectively work with you as our client - we need to also focus on your clients (and future ones). We believe that great ideas are triggered by inspired minds, and their effective execution is through collective commitment.  From progressive to disruptive thinking, our aim is to develop custom designed solutions to exceed your needs - to ignite innovation

​

Whether it's coaching organizational leadership, creating environments to foster creative thinking, facilitating strategic working sessions, leading professional development opportunities - or simply acting as a resource, our idea of success is to help you achieve your idea of success.

"Innovation is the only way to win."

                  - Steve Jobs
