In today’s fast-paced
tech-driven business landscape,
your most significant advantage isn’t the tech itself,
it’s the ACTIVE employee
In an environment where technological tools are readily available to all, the true differentiator lies in the mindset and activeness of your workforce. Gone are the days when organizations could get by on a passive workforce that just follows directives and adheres to static job descriptions.
​
To thrive in this VUCA environment, companies now require a majority of individuals who go beyond, those who proactively seek opportunities, innovate solutions, and adapt swiftly to change.
​
The need for active employees has never been more evident, as they are the catalysts for driving growth, staying competitive, and ensuring an organization's long-term sustainability.
Leveraging from Academia
The program draws inspiration from a simulation game based on the principles of System Dynamics and Systems Thinking originating from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
The Active Employee Framework is based on academic research and publications of Prof Michael Frese, a leading academic in the field of psychology and business from the Leuphana University of Luneberg, Germany.

“This workshop provides us a very good opportunity to get to know co-workers better. I love the activity in the ‘game’. It gives me a better understanding of myself in making decisions and being a collaborator.
The process of negotiation was a lot of fun, it revealed our real personality and way of thinking. It’s a very good workshop indeed”
“The workshop is very beneficial for the participants and also for the department.
At first as a junior clerk here, I felt humbled to participate, but the presenter taught us not to follow ranks and speak up which made me very comfortable.”
“Thank you for such an enlightening session. I really enjoyed the simulation and had a lot of fun learning about human behavior and reflecting on myself.
I have a better awareness of how I am a part of a larger ecosystem and what I do matters and will affect others.”
