We believe in the power of stories to create positive change. When stories are brought to life through interactive improvisational theatre, wisdom emerges.
We believe in the collective wisdom of the group. It is the people within your
organization that have the answers to most challenges. Sometimes, however, that wisdom is hidden or unspoken. Therefore we are process experts, not content experts. We listen and help you to listen.
We believe that relationships are the main driver of business results. The relationships on the inside of an organization inform and reflect the relationships on the outside. When employees are inspired by their relationships with their leaders, their peers and their subordinates, they are more committed to their work, their customers and the organization. Relationships define the story of your organization.
We believe that change, while challenging, provides an opportunity for success.
"Nothing endures but change." - Heraclitus (540 BC - 480 BC)
Businesses are, and must be, constantly changing. Markets change, demographics change, economics change, personnel changes, the list goes on.
"Change has a considerable psychological impact on the human mind. To the fearful it is threatening because it means that things may get worse. To the hopeful, it is encouraging because things may get better. To the confident it is inspiring because the challenge exists to make things better."
- King Whitney, Jr.
Van Ness & Company makes the change process easier by helping people move from fear to hope to confidence. We do this by enacting the stories of the experience of change.
