The 49 Power Pairs™
All organizations, teams and individuals have elements of all seven dynamics. We distill it down to two.
Your Anchor reveals who you are at your core.
Your Spotlight shines on the dynamic required to advance or solve your most pressing challenge, opportunity or collaborative relationship.
Paired, these two dynamics help you navigate in real time so you can be your authentic self even in a world that demands constant flexibility.
Power Pairs™ for teams
We conduct 1:1 interviews with each member of your team and reveal each person's current Power Pair.
Our analytics reveal gaps in dynamics and make recommendations for addressing them.
Every Spotlight contains multiple elements, and each person on the team will have specific focus areas. On the left, the Orange dynamic is broken down into some of its component parts as an example.
