We help our clients to design Good Conversations for Action. Our Smart Talk® Solutions help clients to engage people in informative and inspiring conversations.
Our clients have realized that good communication is about engaging people to think and talk together. Good communication is about inviting people to share their stories, ideas and thoughts with each other in an appreciative peer-to-peer process.
As people value each other's experience, thoughts and viewpoints, as they genuinely believe that their words and ideas are interesting, and well worth listening to, authentic conversation happens.
As a peer-to-peer conversation is guided by positive themes, and fresh new questions aligned with what you want more of, people get energized and engaged.
We believe that people and organizations benefit from genuine trust in people, from harnessing the intelligence and commitment of everyone, from good conversations.
We are fully committed to help our clients to do just that.
We design good conversations
We love fresh new questions. They are the key. They open the door for new thinking. They inspire people to look at the world from new perspectives.
We love simple hands-on-tools, like a deck of Strategy Cards. They invite people to contribute and put people in charge. These tools can be used over again in a widening circle of participation. Each conversation is a new.
We love a good process. Good conversation is meeting of the minds. It strengthens the bonds between people. It helps to create new collaboration for joint actions. Conversing together creates understanding and commitment.
Be brave. Know what you want more of. Find fresh questions.
Invite your people to talk together.
Invite your people to talk together.
We base our Smart Talk® Solutions on these design principles.
Positive change. We can make change happen by a) focusing on our problems and trying to get rid of them; or b) by focusing on our strengths and by increasing them. The latter alternative is much more efficient. Our Smart Talk® Solutions are based on strengthening the positive in the spirit of appreciative inquiry.
Positive language. Transformation is supported by positive language and way of speaking. Words are not only words, but links to a world-view. An important element in our Smart Talk® Solutions is to use a vocabulary and a way of speaking that will open the doors to the world of new way of working and new possibilities for action.
Positive conversation. We can make a new way of working real one gathering and one meeting at a time. At their best they are live examples of the future we want to create. An important element of our Smart Talk® Solutions are good questions. They engage people as peers and as active contributors in generative conversations.

We facilitate simulations
We help our clients to design Learning Programs using Celemi's Business Simulations. They are hands-on-simulations that are used face-to-face. People work together, talk together and learn together.
We are proud of our clients for whom we have facilitated these simulations from the top to shop floor level, in Finland, and internationally, in Finnish, English, and Swedish languages.
Among these clients are Aalto University, ABB, Comptel, Elisa, F-Secure, Fortum, Hanken, Kemira, KONE, Konecranes, Nokia, Tikkurila, Vaisala, and Wärtsilä.
