Sensing and research

An institute of higher learning (IHL) in Singapore, enterprise education team

One source of truth for a crowded training market

The question: What does the whole continuing-education market for entrepreneurship and innovation look like before we plan new courses?
What we did: We consolidated 21 separate provider scans into one dataset of more than 460 programmes and fact-checked the entries against live sources.
What they kept: A validated dataset and a documented method, so their own staff can keep it current.

Facilitation

Catapult · more than 60 C-suite leaders

A half day watching your own judgement break down

The question: How far can senior leaders trust their first reading of a situation?
What we did: Sight Beyond Sight, a half-day session built around a live simulation and provocation cards. Leaders watched their first reading fall apart under new information, then rebuilt it deliberately.
What they kept: Each leader named the blind spot they had brought into the room.

Capability building

Community and interfaith facilitators

Training the people who hold difficult conversations

The question: How do we prepare facilitators for rooms where the stakes are real?
What we did: Identity work, a structured facilitation model and a fishbowl practicum, delivered across youth interfaith programmes and community seminars.
What they kept: Every participant ran a live segment of the fishbowl and got direct feedback on it.

Facilitation

HR and L&D leads

A futures method HR could use on Monday

The question: What do the workforce shifts we keep reading about mean for our own portfolios?
What we did: A working session where HR and L&D leads mapped the second- and third-order consequences of workforce shifts with the futures wheel.
What they kept: Their own maps, already translated into implications for their portfolios.
