DON’T TAKE 2026 THINKING

INTO 2027

Free ways to get your team thinking differently about the work that matters.

Every organisation has an invisible Thinking Layer. It’s where problems get solved, decisions get shaped, opportunities get spotted and new value begins. Yet while organisations constantly improve their technology, processes and systems, remarkably little attention is paid to improving how people actually think. 2027 is an opportunity to change that.

Here’s how to introduce different thinking into your team. Choose one and try it.

1) ANSWER ONE BIG QUESTION

If your team could answer and deliver against one important question in 2027, what should it be? We’ll show you how to turn that question into a Killer Question, cascade it beyond the usual people and give everyone time to think before the answers are brought together.

You could start with: What will need to be true by the end of 2027 for us to look back and say we created significantly more value – rather than simply did more work?

Don’t just hear about different thinking. Experience it.

2) RETHINK ONE MEETING

What if your meetings could become shorter – or some could disappear altogether – while producing better thinking? Take one regular meeting and separate what needs managing in the meeting from what needs thinking about outside it.

Meeting Maximiser gives the important thinking time to develop between meetings, rather than demanding instant answers around a table. Try it on one meeting and see what changes.

3) A TRANSFORMATIONAL THINKING EXPERIENCE FOR YOUR TEAM

Give us 30 minutes with your team. We’ll introduce them to the invisible Thinking Layer and demonstrate why changing how work gets thought about can unlock value that conventional ways of working leave behind. They’ll leave with one practical approach they can try for themselves.

If you want us to guide the experiment and demonstrate the value it creates, that’s where the Transformational Thinking Sprint begins.

4) BRING US ONE STUBBORN PROBLEM

Most organisations have issues they’ve discussed several times without making enough progress. Bring us one.

Rather than giving you another answer, we’ll show you how to think about the problem differently – challenging the question, assumptions and conventional thinking surrounding it. Sometimes the breakthrough isn’t finding a better answer – it’s discovering that you’ve been thinking about the wrong question.

SOMETHING EVERY TEAM CAN TRY – THE WEEKLY RETHINK

The Thinking Edge newsletter leads you and your team through a simple four-week thinking exercise. Spot >> Rethink >> Act >> Show

Every cycle addresses one worthwhile organisational question to look at it differently. Turn the thinking into an Act of Value that otherwise wouldn’t have existed – then make the outcome visible. It costs nothing, and your whole team can take part.

You become the person who introduced a new way of thinking into your organisation. Your team gets practical ways to approach questions, meetings and stubborn problems differently. Your organisation gets the opportunity to discover value from an asset it already pays for every day – the thinking capacity of its people. And you get evidence of whether changing the thinking really makes a difference.

THE TRANSFORMATIONAL THINKING SPRINT

The Transformational Thinking Sprint takes two managers and their real business issues and puts different thinking to work over four weeks. Rather than talking about the benefits of better thinking, we demonstrate them. We establish a baseline, change how the thinking happens and identify the measurable value created as a result. Four weeks. Real business issues. Evidence of what different thinking can do.
