Wholeness
We begin from the radical premise that people are whole, not broken and don’t need to be fixed. Thus the aim of development is to invite wholehearted engagement and expression of the excellence that already exists in everyone.
Connection
By building relationships based on mutual respect for diverse perspectives, we establish the trust and connection needed to meet the inevitable challenges that life presents.
Self-Awareness
The power of awareness opens the mind, expands the heart, enlivens the body and awakens the spirit. Self-awareness is the key (and often the missing link) to truly great leadership and to living with ease and joy.
Courage
Courage is the fierce and tender quality of the heart required to stand up for what we really care about, and at the same time step beyond our limited views and perspectives—of ourselves, others and the world.
Freedom
Our aspiration is to help alleviate suffering. We do this by freeing people to become response•able—capable of responding intentionally to life, rather than reacting habitually.
We believe we are all in this together –as thought generators, creative collaborators and accountability partners. That spirit puts us in the presence of like-minded leaders and decision-makers who genuinely believe in human potential.
As a collective group of change agents, we inspire learning and development that is truly transformational and lasting! This is not about a business transaction, this is about winning people’s hearts and as a result, changing lives. Part mastery, part mystery, 100% dedication --whole person engagement.
What does that look like, feel like and taste like? Well, the possibilities are endless and the results are powerful.

OUR FACILITATION PARTNERS
Toni wants to live in a world where people can’t find their “Inner Critic" anymore and value themselves for what they are rather than for what they do.
When he isn’t with people or on his computer, you can find him eating an ice cream, enjoying the bavarian alps or reading a good book.
He created many programs for various customers and likes to connect mindfulness and personal values with the challenges of the day to day business life of leaders. He is passionate about supporting others to unlock their potential.
He is a heartful coach and trainer, and did win the Best Trainer Award four times for one of his global clients.

Jennifer wants to live in a world where work is play, people don’t have to choose between success and what they truly love, and everyone gets to bring more of who they are to what they do.
As a coach and facilitator, Jennifer has more than twenty five years of internal and external experience coaching and consulting with leaders and teams of some of the worlds best known brands. In her work she brings the qualities of quiet presence, deep listening, clear seeing, and creativity to help her clients quickly create clarity on issues of importance to them and their organizations.

She believes in the power of being yourself, that we each need to define for ourselves what a good life is, and that we are all capable of playing a much bigger game than the one we are currently playing.
OUR CLIENT PARTNERS
“PEP has brought sustained individual growth and a vibrant learning culture to my organization. Through PEP, we are now smarter, more agile, and more responsive. There is greater collaboration across functions; customer relationships have improved, employee engagement is noticeably higher, and we are better positioned to respond to change and lead technological innovation.”
“When I think of our PEP program, in my head I know for a fact that it’s a big reason we’re repeatedly in the top 10 of Computerworld and Fortune’s Best Places to Work, in my heart I’m moved every time I hear a story from someone about how their PEP experience has created satisfaction in their lives and deepened their relationships, and in my body I can feel the resilience we’ve built together that has fueled our innovation and sense of community over the years.
PEP could very well be the greatest gift we give to our employees while they’re with us - doing now what patients need next”
“I’ve taken dozens of training programs. But what PEP does is different—it teaches us how to learn!”
