“CuriosityBased didn’t just deliver an experience—they ignited a movement within our agency to lead with curiosity and respect.”

As the agency grew, seasoned staff needed tools to explore how different things can be true at the same time, get curious about different perspectives, and develop paths to accomplishing goals that make room for others without feeling there was a right or wrong way to approach the task. For newer staff, the goal was to help them onboard quickly into a culture of genuine curiosity and mutual respect.

“We found the work provocative, stimulating, and even challenging.”

Evergreen Business Capital faced a challenge shared by many mid-sized teams: How do we strengthen connections and trust across a company of diverse employees? After years of shifting between virtual and in-person formats, Evergreen’s leadership team wanted to strengthen communication, renew alignment, and reestablish the meaningful, high-performing culture that had defined them before the pandemic.

"CuriosityBased helped our new executive team build trust, clarity, and confidence in giving and receiving feedback."

When a new executive leadership team came together, they faced a common but complex challenge: how to quickly establish trust, align decision-making, and strengthen collaboration while navigating diverse leadership styles. They sought a retreat experience that would do more than teach skills—it needed to help them practice authentic communication, real-time feedback, and systems-level thinking as a cohesive leadership team.

“The workshop experience was incredible – people entered the zoom room as acquaintances and exited with real relationships. I had a couple of skeptics make a point of following up to tell me how surprised they were by the level of engagement they felt in the workshop. ”

“We brought CuriosityBased in to facilitate a three month series on intra-team communication and empathy.
