​The Thinking Partnership course (2 + 1 days) will allow you to learn to offer the quality of attention we call generative. It is a step by step, highly engaging course to allow you to think yourselves with unprecedented clarity, originality and tenacity. People can think for themselves. It is their natural birthright to do so. This innate ability can, and mostly is, intruded upon and eroded by parental and educational messaging: resulting in an assumption – that we need others to help us in order to know what to do.

Learning to become a Thinking Partner is possibly the most helpful skill to cultivate. Having the courage to trust someone else’s intelligence for themselves is a profound gift of humanity and leadership. When people are thinking for themselves and are being listened to by someone who knows how to create a Thinking Environment for them, they can and will discover the full territory of their thinking. From there they can clarify their objectives, surface and remove untrue limiting assumptions that stand in their way and generate new ideas and insights that free them to live life fully. The human mind is capable of all this, innately. When, for whatever reason, this innate capacity becomes blocked, Thinking Partners have learned to recognise where the thinker is now, and where they are needing to go next, and what question(s) will enable them to get back onto a wave of their own independent thinking.
