Our flagship offering is ‘Developing and Energizing Institution Program.' This offering is based on whole system approach. We engage all the stakeholders of the institution or university for conversations based on possibilities and not on the constraints.
This program has two components :
Appreciative Inquiry
Structured Inputs from the Experts
