Setting up for Innovate-Logic™ Beyond the Idea workshop session at 20 Fathoms in February 2023.
The Problems we solve
Our programs are offered in various formats; from full-day and half-day workshops to keynote addresses and virtual learning sessions. We can also combine any of our programs to fit your group's specific needs. See our offerings below.
CULTURAL
MALAISE
If your organization suffers from a challenging workplace culture or it feels like people aren’t supporting each other, Grateful Logic™, our flagship positive psychology program, is for you. Krios Consulting leads in applying scientific methods derived from the principles of positive psychology to enhance individuals' lives and improve their work environments.

LACK OF

CHANGE RESISTANCE
Many organizations resist the necessary changes vital to their growth and adaptability. Our founder and principal consultant dedicated ten years alongside Harvard’s esteemed John Kotter, where he played a key role in designing and facilitating the renowned change management program Leading Change. Our program, Change Logic™, integrates the insights from Dr. Kotter’s foundational work and other authors' latest research findings in the field. We have presented this transformative program to many groups, including governments, military contractors, educational institutions, and manufacturing companies. Allow us the opportunity to assist your organization in strategically mapping out a course for the changes needed to achieve and fully realize your future potential.
Decision
Paralysis
In a world of cognitive noise and constantly shifting goalposts, Krios Consulting’s newest program is designed to help you and your organization thrive when making critical decisions. Predictive Mastery™: The Art & Neuroscience of Decision-Making and Scenario Planning uses the latest brain science research to help participants understand the causes of decision paralysis, the neuroscience behind decisions, and the biases that can help or hinder us. The program also introduces visual thinking and scenario planning and emphasizes creating a bias for action.
Unclear
Values
Our personal and organizational values must align. Everyone should know their values and how to express them. The organization needs to clearly explain its values and provide employees with a straightforward way to embrace them ethically. Our program, Ethical Logic™, makes understanding ethics and values engaging and interactive. Starting with a personal values inventory and then overlaying the results with the organization’s values provides participants with a deeper understanding of how ethics and values impact everyday operations and decisions.
Meeting
Meh
Krios started with Meeting Facilitation. For over thirty years, we have helped organizations elegantly address complex issues. Our approach is interactive and upbeat while providing fundamental facilitation practices designed to get results. We use various methods tailored to each situation, such as The World Café, Liberating Structures, The Delphi Model, and Graphic Facilitation. Let us assist your team in making the most of your next meeting.
