Sales & Marketing

Even the most reliable sales and marketing programs leave many personal and market insights undiscovered. Distracting information and the pace of change means that teams are rarely given time to think about their thinking. Applied Curiosity & critical thinking tools will make your team more self and customer-aware, more influential, more intellectually agile, and ready to capture otherwise hidden and meaningful market insights.

Finance & Investing

Risk and insights hide in the gap between what you know about markets & yourself and what you’ll find out to be true. Your success relies heavily on eliminating the thinking problems that keep these risks and insights hidden. We’ll help you shine the light on misleading biases, logical fallacies, and unexamined assumptions to illuminate the risk & opportunity insights that hide in this information gap.

Is your talent inspired and motivated to generate great ideas and to bring those ideas to your organization?

Analytical & Technical

No matter how analytical or technical you are, we all lack an operating manual for our brains. This has profound implications and consequences for the effectiveness of our decisions. As you continue to improve upon algorithms and prescriptive models for making decisions, we’ll give you the Good Thinking tools to unlock an operating manual for your brain and avoid judgment and decision errors that negatively impact algorithm decisions.
