INSIDE THE WORK

What the work
holds.

The shape of an engagement is deliberate. Here is what it holds, so you know what you are stepping into before you begin.

The formats

Six in all

I

The Sessions

Regular one to one conversations, around ninety minutes, held on a steady cadence.

II

The Between

Access between sessions, for the decisions that will not wait for the next one.

III

The Cohort

A small group who meet across a season, learning in good company as well as alone.

IV

The Review

A structured look back each quarter, at what has changed and what has not.

V

The Materials

Frameworks and notes from the work, kept private to clients.

VI

The Close

A considered end to each season, with a plain account of what changed and what comes next.

The rhythm of an engagement.

Engagements run in seasons rather than single calls. A typical arc is fortnightly sessions across several months, with access in between and a review at the close of each quarter. The pace is steady on purpose. Change holds when it is worked at, not rushed.

Where it happens.
