Many of our existing practitioners use KAI to:
- coach CEOs, Board, or senior leadership teams
- work with teams create breakthrough concepts & ensure adoption
- manage major transformational change
- create a culture of wellbeing and lower stress (at college, work, home)
- generate new products
- help manage diversity
- bridge gaps or mediate between individuals or teams
- optimally solve difficult cross-functional problems
- improve communications (in all forms, including internal & external)
The KAI Accreditation Course covers aspects of problem solving and creativity as it relates to the individual, working in teams, and leading change. The KAI is based in Adaption-Innovation (A-I) theory, which is the only known theory able to explain how a measurable dimension of an individual’s personality (problem-solving style) is connected to the science of teams and preferences for leading change.
