Who We Are

At Adaptable Folks, we serve change management from the inside out.

The brain seeks habitual patterns as these are predictable and provide comfort and safety. Over time these patterns become unintentional blind spots that create inflexibility in the face of natural and constant environmental and organizational evolution.

We help individuals, teams and organizations realize their untapped potential by combining the science of positive psychology, steps of innovation, and the social impact of positive deviance.

Our services are tailored to meet our clients’ unique goals through evidence-based innovation and human-centered design.

Adaptable

Adaptability, like a muscle, can be trained over time. These learned characteristics give individuals, teams, and organizations the power to utilize strengths they already possess, fit any present situation, and adapt as the context requires.

Folks

Folks are people in general. They make sense of the world without labeling or categorizing. Human-centered solutions are built with the client in mind, towards a goal they aspire to.

 “Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.”
