COMPANY INFORMATION

Dialogos is a management consulting and leadership development firm with offices in Concord, Massachusetts. For more than two decades, we have developed and refined precise tools and practices to help organizations initiate and manage transformational change processes that produce sustainable results. Our clients are influential organizations focused on serving major markets and addressing critical problems that impact our world and our future.

We offer three core areas of consulting, facilitation and leadership development services:

· Transforming organizations and complex systems

· Cultivating leadership capacity, individually and collectively

· Coaching individuals and teams at all organizational levels

Transforming Organizations Navigating uncertainty and providing true leadership requires organizations that do not merely repeat well-worn (if once successful) habits, but have the ability and agreement to move in new directions. However, despite even the sincerest efforts to change, new thinking and innovation are frequently lost through bureaucratic complexity and limited imagination. Our expertise enables leaders to deliver superior results for their organizations through the following means:

· Managing transformative change processes from idea to inception to completion

· Catalyzing and coordinating innovation across functional and disciplinary boundaries

· Aligning and inspiring managers and leaders to accurately and intensively fulfill their mission

· Convening and facilitating multiple stakeholder dialogues that build powerful coalitions

· Clarifying and implementing strategic planning processes

For more about our Coaching Approach see section 541611—Management and Financial Consulting, Acquisitions and Grants Management Support, and Business Program and Project Management Services below for a full description and pricing.

Cultivating Team Capacity The age of the hero leader is gone. New leadership models foster the capacity to stimulate creative thinking and resilient action in organizations—at the individual, team and division level. Our developmental curriculum grows leaders’ and followers’ capacity to create, innovate, and produce beneficial and compelling changes in practice and culture. We offer short- and long-term programs that help leaders and followers achieve their highest aspirations as individuals and team players, building lasting personal and organizational legacies. We develop shared capacity through:

· Conducting trainings ranging from small-scale retreats and workshops to large-scale (100k employee) leadership and skill-building trainings

· Developing “offline” learning labs and simulations in which pilot programs new ideas and prototypes can be tested live in a respectful environment that provides critical and immediate feedback

· Teaching the art and practice of dialogic leadership in high-stakes situations

· Equipping leaders to design, initiate, and facilitate large-systems change

· Supporting leaders individually and collectively to engage intelligently in reflection, exploration and regeneration

For more information on how we cultivate Leadership Capacity, see section 611430—Professional and Management Development Training below for a full description and pricing.

Coaching We coach and mentor professional and executive-level clients—both at the individual and team level—in organizations all over the world to unleash their deep wellspring of power and capability. Often conducted in the context of consulting engagements, our Holographic Coaching model focuses on a person’s ability to produce sustained, creative results, and on uncovering and transforming limits to creative expression. Our approach has been developed, tested, and refined for over two decades with thousands of leaders. We transform leadership through the following means:

· Developing personalized and concrete development plans in collaboration with clients, either at the individual or team level

· Creating practice and reflection opportunities to develop and reinforce new skills, and to see current behavior and impact on others and situations

· Teaching the client how to seek and implement feedback that is both appropriate and productive

· Accessing expert resources and counsel for technical problems, and providing support and mentoring through personal leadership transformation or crisis

For more about our Coaching Approach see section 541611—Management and Financial Consulting, Acquisitions and Grants Management Support, and Business Program and Project Management Services below for a full description and pricing.

Tools & Resources In addition to these services, we offer collaborative tools, services and other resources that fuel creative capacity, facilitate genuine dialogue and further the work of transformative change. Our proprietary Organizational X-Ray process, for example, combines system dynamics, cultural analysis and deep insight to produce useful intelligence about the core drivers under the surface of organizations, alliances, even regional contexts.

Management and Financial Consulting, Acquisitions and Grants Management Support, and Business Program and Project Management Services

Overview Dialogos’ specialty is the delivery of purpose-driven value creation and creating cultures of innovation and breakthrough delivery. We have a special focus on and have developed understanding of what it takes to create transformation in public sector contexts where public value creation, collaborative engagement, and disciplined cross-organizational delivery are essential. Because senior-level experience is necessary to bring about the high-quality results Dialogos is known for, we deliberately invert the traditional model of a few senior people and many junior ones. Our extended network includes Senior Scientists and Academics, current and former CEOs and Presidents, and Community Leaders from around the world who teach and advise our clients, provide mentoring and coaching and consult on projects.

We work with a broad spectrum of constituents in organizations, including senior management, line leadership, first-level/union leaders, and other critical actors. We have worked in multinational and multilateral organizations (profit and non-profit) as well as local and regional organizations.

Dialogos consistently performs well in providing these services for two key reasons: First, the challenge that many organizations face requires collective leadership and followership; we have repeatedly proven that a concerted, collaborative effort is the only kind that can be successful in diverse and fragmented organizations. Second, our approach integrates an understanding of system design; that is, we distinguish between the results an organization produces and the activities that produce those results.

Dialogos’ primary staff consists of 20 practitioners who lead our work. Additionally, we have access to experts and analysts drawn from extensive collaboration, particularly in the fields of strategic change, organizational learning, and systems analysis. Dialogos can conduct programs in German, Dutch, and Spanish, in addition to English.

Dialogos specializes in organizational leadership breakthrough and creative environments for transformation and innovation. We focus on assisting in the creation of transformational change and the creation of public value through disciplined delivery in these specific domains.

Products we offer:

1. Senior team alignment and transformation — moving senior executive groups towards the experience and performance of high-level teams.

2. Project team collaborative innovation and coordination — "silo solvent" workshops, consulting, and tools to shift teams to focused, coordinated and innovative delivery. Ideal for complex projects seeking to deliver breakthrough results with many players and team members.

3. Operational team excellence and delivery — focusing on four critical domains: quality of dialogue, level of strategic alignment, integrated capacity, and execution capacity.

4. Alliance and partnership repair and breakthrough — assist position-oriented players to deliver true partnership and unexpected results.

5. Coalition building for innovative action — including Public-Private Dialogue, multiparty stakeholder dialogue, each moving from compromise to breakthrough.

6. Cultural diagnosis and transformation — determining deep causes of cultural misalignment and shifting skill sets and practices to produce sustained change.

7. Breakthrough purpose development — identifying and aligning around clear intention and purpose.

8. Cross-system collaboration and alignment — catalyzing multiple departments, agencies, or organizations in collaborative and breakthrough functions.

9. Cross-value chain innovation and alignment — building healthy and productive collaborative function across key stakeholders and players in a value chain; tools and processes for diagnosis and continuous improvement.

10. Breakthrough strategy development — listening to customers and mobilizing shared value creation among key stakeholders through shared strategic insight development.

HOW we do each is focused on these things:

· co-creative — building on the inherent wisdom and capability inherent in the system

· systemic — looking at how the parts interact to produce synergy

· purpose-driven — looking to find action from a clear purpose, not fear

· breakthrough-oriented — playing to win rather than playing not to lose

Overview and Course Descriptions Dialogos has extensive experience in leadership development that has been delivered in multiple formats, ranging from 1-day to 10-month programs. We have trained and developed thousands of leaders in multiple contexts and organizations over the past 20 years, both through highly customized, on-site corporate trainings and our proprietary, off-the-shelf programs available to the public. Our two flagship offerings, described here, are the Leadership for Collective Intelligence (LCI) course, a ten-month program for senior-level executives, and the Dialogue and the Art of Thinking Together (AoTT) program, a 2.5-day course providing a foundation for collective leadership and dialogic skills.

Our specialty is assessing, designing, coaching and training senior and mid-level executives, drawn from large (up to 100,000 employees) and complex organizational environments. Our development programs are designed and adapted for our client groups; while we conduct in-house training programs, our norm with both the LCI and the AoTT is to convene multiple-client training sessions, bringing together leaders from different backgrounds so that they are exposed to different approaches and ways of addressing organizational challenges.

Courses and Workshops

DIALOGUE AND THE ART OF THINKING TOGETHER

A Program in Strategic Transformation for Leaders In organizations people spend up to 80% of their time in conversation. Talk is our key action tool—and often a neglected discipline. Changing the nature of conversations in organizations may be the single most powerful way to bring about performance breakthroughs. Based on the pioneering work of Bill Isaacs, this two-and-a-half-day workshop is designed to deepen your leadership identity and expand your capacity to connect with others and access collective intelligence in groups. The program is highly participative and will introduce you to the tools and frameworks of a dialogic approach in a practical way.

The Art of Thinking Together (AoTT) is for anyone interested in developing themselves as a leader with a greater depth of understanding and the practical skills needed to bring about sustainable, positive change in their organizations.

Why now Today’s turbulent and challenging environment calls for a heightened level of leadership. In many organizations, the pressures of uncertainty and complexity create a relentless drive for performance at every level. Yet resource constraints can stifle creativity and productivity, seen while increasing workload. Under these circumstances, even the strongest systems can experience fragmentation, leading to factional strife and deviation from long-term aims. In complex organizations, such structural traps require highly capable leadership that can work successfully across constituencies to guide deep and far-reaching shifts.

What you will learn This program will introduce you to the framework and tools of our dialogic approach and develop your practical ability to apply these tools in real-life challenges. The program is highly participative. It is designed to deepen your leadership identity and expand your capacity to connect with others and access collective intelligence, even in complex situations with multiple stakeholders.

The Art of Thinking Together will develop your leadership in the following areas:

· Learning and practicing a dialogic approach to change

· Discovering the nature of balanced action in any team or group

· Inquiring effectively into “what is really going on” in a conversation

· Understanding distinct ways of speaking and listening, and why breakdowns occur among them

· Diagnosing self-defeating patterns in work teams and in one’s own communications

· Gaining a feel for the power of collective intelligence and its relevance for one’s organization

· Grounding one’s opinions and abstractions in data that can be validated

· Using reflection to achieve immediate impact on action and the quality of decisions

· Using breakdowns to break through, to generate pivotal conversations and actions.

The program uses a variety of learning methods including short presentations, large-group dialogues, small-group reflection, reading, video and journaling. There is an orientation call prior to the program and a one-hour coaching call with a member of the faculty after the program to maximize learning.

Who should participate Past participants have come from a variety of organizations including the World Bank, Shell, BP, Oxfam, RenRe, government agencies and academia. Many participants have also chosen to attend outside of an organizational context. The program can benefit anyone who wishes to grow their capabilities to engage others in strategic transformation. Colleagues who attend the AoTT together gain a heightened capacity for using dialogue effectively within their organizations. Team members can think together about how to apply new practices with intermediate effect back on the job. Teams of three or more enjoy a group discount.

Minimum number of participants: 10 Maximum number of participants: 30

Offered in a 2.5-Day format.

LEADERSHIP FOR COLLECTIVE INTELLIGENCE

Leadership for Collective Intelligence (LCI) is an intensive, 10-month program equipping leaders to design, initiate, and facilitate large-systems change. It draws on, and has been built by, pioneers in organizational learning, dialogue, family systems therapy, systems thinking and the improvisational arts. The dominant focus of the LCI is the art and practice of dialogue, which we see as a means of enabling deep change within individuals, groups, and larger collective settings such as organizations, communities and, ultimately, society itself. We see dialogue as a stance, a practice among a group of people, and the cornerstone for an approach to change. For this reason, the LCI concentrates on five main areas:

· Dialogue and the Art of Thinking Together skillsets

· Interpersonal Reasoning and Profound Change

· Leadership and Group Intelligence: Facilitation Skills

· Collective Leadership and Systemic Change Dynamics

· Developing Models for Practice

Our experience has proven to us that, in addition to the content of programs offered, it is the context, or leadership environment in which people operate, that determines whether an organization will be able to make wise strategic choices or access the “collective intelligence” embedded in their system. Our leadership training concentrates on these “climate change and maintenance” skills, and addresses real, pressing and practical problems of the organization.

The course design Leadership for Collective Intelligence is designed as an iterative process; that is, each session builds directly on the lessons learned in the prior one, with personal opportunity to deepen and refine leadership practices gained during sessions with other leaders. While we tailor our courses to meet the specific needs of participants, in general our program unfolds according to the following pattern:

Session 1 (In-Person): Dialogue and the Art of Thinking Together Session 1 serves as an introduction to the power of “thinking together,” collective leadership, and the nature of systemic change. It focuses on the individual, acknowledging that genuine transformation always begins there. Participants cultivate a deep quality of personal presence that enables them to hold their “center” as the stakes of situations may rise. Specific principles and practices are explored with the intent of increasing participants' capacity to lead. Participants learn about the creative cycle of profound change, and how it applies to their own life experience.

Session 2 (In-Person): Systems Thinking and System Design Session 2 emphasizes the dynamic power of living systems to enable or impede creative action. Its focus is both on the interpersonal nature of systems and the policy or structural aspects of systems. Participants learn how to perceive systemic structures in high and low-stakes settings, in themselves, and in others. This session places emphasis on the ways system structures create unintended results and teaches a logical means of untangling complexity and allowing a clear design to emerge.

Session 3 (In-Person): Leadership and Group Intelligence: Facilitation Skills in Session 3, Leadership is explored in more depth, expanding on the individual and interpersonal building blocks put in place during the initial sessions. Participants explore the “voices” and “shadows” of their leadership. Participants also build the capacity to access group intelligence through dialogic facilitation. They develop specific face-to-face skills, including the ability to create group-level containers for change, to work with dissonance that arises, and to actively engage with group dynamics. Participants explore the tacit rules that govern knowledge creation and change in groups.

Session 4 (In-Person): Collective Leadership and the Architecture of Large Systems Change in Session 4, participants begin to address ways of designing interventions at the organizational level. The centerpiece of this session is the application of the “Spiral Model” to the design and architecture of large systems change. Participants learn how to assess readiness for change and to understand the kind of system that they are functioning within. They learn how to enter different systems differently, how to structure an initial inquiry, how to elicit the deeper dream of the people concerned, and how to set containers for change. The group acquires tools for confronting the inevitable “backlash” that transformations encounter, identifying high-leverage cultural “hot points,” and bringing key groups together. Participants reflect on their action projects and give each other feedback.

Interim One-on-One Coaching Calls & Group Reflection Sessions (Virtual): Between and after in-person training sessions, faculty hold individual coaching calls and group practice sessions. Participants begin to cultivate their personal approach to bringing about change at multiple levels by developing their own theories of practice and theories of change. Participants have time in these sessions to ask questions, clarify content we’ve covered, and explore ideas they are sitting with. They learn skills for bridging between disparate worldviews and the art of “cross-model” conversation. They begin to consider the broader implications of dialogic change in terms of governance, sustainability, and the new century.

The Dialogos Approach Our approach to leadership training is different from—and more effective than—traditional methods in six key ways:

1. Action and experiential learning: We believe that people must learn through action and reflection, and not merely in classroom contexts. As a result, we conduct our seminars with a strong bias towards experiential learning in the sessions and—outside of the classroom, between sessions—action, application, and further reflection. Our pioneering work in dialogue gives us strong capability to produce powerful action learning conversations, the key to success here. We examine design and propose, interim activities, practices, tool applications and experiments for the leaders to apply between these sessions, to maintain continuity and continue to deepen the learning and engagement.

2. Co-creation: Rather than a “banking concept” of education—we have knowledge, learners do not; we open their heads and pour something in—we adhere to a transformational understanding of learning. Learners must be engaged and responsible for their own learning, and the educator must create a context in which this enthusiastically takes place.

3. Capability for dialogue: Dialogue is the art of thinking together, not merely talking together. Applied well, it opens new potential and produces a powerful, shared field for new thinking. Sometimes mistaken for a merely relational or communications process, dialogue represents the essence of the scientific method, a process of deep inquiry shared and developed among a community in which assumptions are revealed, and from which new levels of coordinated action can emerge. Dialogue is a master art for leaders, and an essential underpinning of our work.

4. Leaders developing leaders: One of the central tenets of powerful learning comes through peer coaching—the art of assisting others. The ability to be “of help” to another leader, and to assist in their development, is an essential feature of new patterns of leadership. We teach leaders how to coach others, and to be coachable.

5. Capacity for reflection: Essential to the development of leadership is the capacity to reflect. Reflection requires discipline and focus. Senior leaders must learn to value, develop the capacity for reflection. This art is less about “taking time” than about learning how to reflect in the moment, or over longer periods.

6. Faculty and Guests: The faculty for our courses is comprised of the senior members of our firm. Our approach further includes inviting selective and high-value guests to engage in intimate dialogue with leaders (as opposed to standing behind a podium).

While no specific labor categories have been identified as being subject to SCLS due to exemptions for professional employees (FAR 22.1101,22.1102 and 29 CRF 541.300), this contract still maintains the provisions and protections for SCLS eligible labor categories. If and/or when the contractor adds SCLS labor categories / employees to the contract through the modification process, the contractor must inform the Contracting Officer and establish an SCLS matrix identifying the GSA labor category titles, the occupational code, SCLS labor category titles and the applicable WD number. Failure to do so may result in cancellation of the contract.
