Generative methods are the most potent tool for learning and transformation I’ve ever encountered. They do what nothing else can do - they help people transform their unconscious limiting beliefs by identifying their hidden purpose and superpowers through the use of evidence - hard core data - derived from their own life experiences. It is an extraordinary thing to witness, and an even better thing to experience first hand. We used these methods to increase retention by 40% in a first-generation students, something never even dreamed of before...

We’ve used generative methods to fundamentally change the way we hire, onboard, and develop our team. As part of our strategic planning process, these methods helped us to connect more deeply and understand each other at a much more meaningful level.  We uncovered hidden strengths in each other and in the organization as a whole. Transformational is the only word to describe it. I've also used the generative knowledge process with student entrepreneurs for the past four years. We connect with one another immediately, and quickly move into a deep state of understanding about each others’ strengths, values, and goals. It has been a game changer.

Learning generative methods as part of my MBA program at the University of Michigan literally changed my life. I gained clarity on my strengths but most importantly, I learned about the specific types of people, places and situations that bring out the best in me. I learned to find other peoples' superpowers too. I’ve applied these methods in all areas of my life: with friends, colleagues, athletes and entrepreneurs, as well as my current role at an AI tech startup. I've coached complete strangers who discovered things about themselves they never knew… 

I came to the Generative Coaching workshop thinking there was nothing new I could learn. I was so glad to be wrong. The unpacking is so profound...I've unearthed intelligences and capacities, been introduced  to new yet old methods of listening, been connected to my embodied knowledge and in turn, my wholeness. I’ve come to better understand the contexts in my life that are disabling...and more importantly, the contexts that allow me to thrive...the impact is seismic, affecting me and the people I connect with.

When our undergraduate student leaders and peer mentors go through the Generative Coaching and Integrative Knowledge Portfolio training each year, it truly transforms their lives, their mentees, and our entire program [the Hispanic Student Success Initiative].  They not only learn how to identify their own hidden sources of passion, motivation and strength, but more importantly, they learn how to be a clear mirrors for each other and their families. It is truly a life-changing experience. They apply these methods directly in their lives and then use them to transform their communities…

I am a firm believer that the Generative Knowledge Training is revolutionary and will change the world. I say that because this training 100% changed my life for the better. Going through Level 1 I was able to discover my superpower and I learned about strengths that I didn’t know I had. The training also took my listening skills to the next level, “the unpacking” method along with recognizing patterns allows me to see strengths and coach people on what their superpowers and internal motivation triggers are. Being able to connect with people on a deeper level and helping them understand the power they possess is invaluable. The fact that one can do this with complete strangers who they don’t know shows how powerful this training is. Attending this course was one of the best decisions I could have ever made and I want to encourage you to go on this journey. I’m pumped to continue to learn more Generative Knowledge techniques in level 2 and knows it will bring a lot of value to my life.

"I've always thought of myself as a good communicator and rarely felt I wasn't able to express myself but my eyes were opened to the many ways I have limited my expression by using generalities that kept me and the person I'm talking with on the surface. I learned something new about myself through the practice of embodied questions and listening during the weekend. I brought home skills that have deepened my coaching conversations significantly."
