PANGEA LEADERSHIP GROUP
At Pangea Leadership Group we believe that developing people is the most impactful thing an organization can do to increase performance and achieve long term success
WHAT WE DO
At the Pangea Leadership Group, we design and deliver innovative and highly relevant learning initiatives to help your people change the mindsets, behaviors, and habits that impact the success of your organization
HOW WE DO IT
We've come up with NINE GUIDING PRINCIPLES for how we craft learning solutions
2. WE USE THE PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN THINKING TO CRAFT OUR PROGRAMS
We work closely with your stakeholders to apply the relevant steps of design thinking (empathize, define, ideate, prototype and test) and then strive to continuously improve on those programs moving forward.
3.WE BELIEVE IN THE PARETO PRINCIPLE
Not every topic or training course will have an equal impact on your people. We look for and focus on the 20% of skills and behaviors that will have 80% of the impact on your people and organization.
1. DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION IS BUILT INTO THE DNA OF ALL OUR LEARNING
We understand that fostering an environment of diversity, inclusion, and psychological safety is one of the most impactful things a team or organization can do to be successful. We build those principles into every learning experience we create.
5. WE PLAY THE LONG "INFINITE GAME"
A finite game is played for the purpose of winning; an infinite game for the purpose of continuing the play. We play an infinite game with sustainability and long-term organizational success guiding every decision we make.
6. WE STEAL FROM THE BEST
This is not about violating proprietary IP. To us, stealing is actively seeking out and adopting the 'bright spots', the best practices, the little things that thought leaders and cutting-edge organizations are doing that will make a lasting impact on your people's performance.
4. "DON'T BE BORING" IS OUR MANTRA
In our programs we creatively use stories, discussions, roleplays, activities, simulations, virtual reality technology, and creative brainstorming sessions to make the learning interesting and highly engaging.
7. WE MAKE THE LEARNING STICKY
We design learning to stick with participants long after they've left the classroom. Our goal is to make the learning simple, concrete, and memorable so that we can create lasting behavioral change in the learners.
8. WE DO THE RIGHT THING
We strive to act fairly and ethically in all our business dealings. We do the right thing even if it means taking a short-term loss or turning down a client that’s not making a net positive impact on the world. Again, we’re playing the long game!
9. IN THE END IT'S ALL ABOUT RESULTS
The most important criteria we use in implementing a program—or even including a particular activity in a program—is whether it’s ruthlessly relevant to what your people need to achieve tangible, sustainable results that lead to your organization’s success.
