As a CEO, MD or a sr. executive of a leadership team – do you get an opportunity to mull over on any or some of the following questions
- Why are we doing what we are doing? What is our purpose?
- Where do we want to go? How does our future look like?
- What will take us there?
- What stops us from getting there?
- Which strategic areas should be our focus?
- As a sr. leadership team which new group habits and behaviors should we work on?
We believe that every organization, big or small, should reflect on these timeless questions time and time again. These are simple questions, but have the power to change the entire course of an organization. They can re-direct the organization to uncharted waters or urge them to leave the murkier ones.
In NuTurns Navigator we facilitate such soul searching conversations and align the leadership team towards a shared purpose, shared vision, shared language and set of habits that support transformation.
We leave lucrative jobs to take low-paying ones that provide a clearer sense of purpose.

The Problem
In many organizations the discussions and conversations that start around these classic questions are very stimulating and thought provoking. But the problem is that…
- These conversations happen ad-hocly and end up vaguely.
- They are often unstructured and facilitated poorly.
- When over stretched these meetings become cognitively very exhausting and repelling
- Sometimes the influencers (which every team has) unintentionally push their ideas without hearing out others. Due to this people around them lose interest and get disconnected. They don’t feel the sense of contribution, hence they seem detached, unsupportive and uncommitted.
- Only handful of the executives have the ability to see the bigger picture. While others are very narrow and silo focused. Due to this they are unable to contribute and are left out of such discussions.
- People and functions like sales which interact with clients contribute much more in such discussions than other people. The reason is simple – the sales guys because of their job profile get an opportunity to travel more and meet different people. As a result they have greater awareness of the world around them than their counterparts.
- Sometimes such purpose-driven conversations end up half baked. They stop where they should have begun.
- Many such discussions end on a high note without thinking deeply on the potential obstacles. The road to goals is not a straight line. One might encounter many obstacles – peaks and valleys, tsunamis and earthquakes. So a leadership team should be aware of such obstacles which could overthrow their plans.
The future belongs to people who see possibilities before they become obvious.
On the clarity of your ideas depends the scope of your success in any endeavour
The Solution
To overcome these problems and elicit answers to these timeless questions we have developed NuTurnsTM
technology.
It is a facilitation process that stimulates the leadership team, individually and collectively, to brainstorm newer ideas. It provokes them to think laterally, holistically and systematically. Yes, at times it becomes cognitively challenging. But that is the time when deep thinking happens and something new and diverse ideas come up.
Our proven NuTurnsTM technology empowers the executive leadership team to design and align themselves to the meaningful purpose. It motivates them to draw the future road-map, collaboratively and co-creatively.
The NuTurnsTM technology incorporates the element of fun through powerful and playful business simulations. These simulations have the power to shatter the age-old belief systems – on how to maximize both purpose and profits. The energy and passion that is generated in these simulations is highly electrifying!
The three things that motivate creative people are – autonomy, mastery, purpose!
