What we do
What we do
LEAF Inspiring Change helps its clients develop strategies and support transformative change through the association of facilitation techniques and the use of strategy games relevant to the challenges they face.
Our games range from classical “tragedy of the commons” scenarios, exploring the role of communication, trust and cooperation in strategy development, to games designed to resolve specific environmental, social and economic issues in supply chains or landscapes.
Our services draw from a background of 30 years of research and development. We have developed, implemented and refined the tools and methods from many different cases around the world.

Our services
Exploring futures
During Short Events
In one or multiple days sessions, we build social skills, explore a particular question, or support decision-making processes. Therefore we draw from our collection of off-the shelf games and tailor them to address the issue at stake and start the process we inspire.
Strategy development to break through business as usual
During Medium-term engagement
From a few weeks to about a year, we accompany you in the process of developing and implementing a strategy to overcome your challenges. This might involve designing a game that suits the situation at stake. We help you use it to explore options and forge new collaborations. We help you to assess their outcomes in a safe environment. This allows to identify a solution that has wide consensus. We then assist you in the formulation of action plans and follow-up the implementation, assessing progress and validating the assumptions made in the strategy formulation.
Transforming systems
Through Long-Term engagement
We facilitate cooperative platforms for you and your associates. We establish a dynamic working environment where you can adaptively respond to emerging changes and promptly develop new strategies. This is based on evolving needs.
Facilitation
Facilitation is the basis of our method. By acting as neutral outside voices and bringing structure and common goals to interactions, our facilitators allow groups to focus on the content of the discussions more effectively. These facilitation techniques can be used alone or in combination with strategic games.
