Our Values

FLYNny (FUN)

​We work differently. We genuinely enjoy working on tough challenges. We are able to work on serious issues in a light-hearted way. We also know that it’s very hard to come up with a new idea with a frown on your face! We value creating an enjoyable process even when working on complex issues because that is how you ultimately will get the most creativity and innovative solutions!

POSSIBILITY

We wouldn’t be doing this work if we didn’t believe that it was possible for work to not suck, and for individuals to be able to thrive. We genuinely believe that organizations and their leaders share this desire to create great workspaces. And we also believe that humans have the power and ability to create workplaces where they and their colleagues can do their best work.

ARM-IN-ARM

We co-create solutions with our partners and clients to solve workplace challenges. To truly create a great workplace, we push the envelope and develop custom, fit-for-purpose solutions vs. implementing “best practices.”

PRACTICAL PRACTITIONERS

We start with “yes.” We firmly believe there is always an innovative way to solve whatever workplace challenge we are faced with. Our can-do attitude is present in all we do. We don’t over-complicate, using our experience to drive towards simple solutions that can work in real life, with a bias towards action.

GENEROSITY

We believe knowledge is meant to be shared for the benefit of all and we’re not precious with any of ours! That knowledge and experience also extends to relationships we have. We love creating and sharing our network. Building genuine relationships with our clients, partners, colleagues, friends so that we all may get better together is the secret sauce of FLYN!

Our Team

​Our combined knowledge that spans industry and challenges enables us to get specific with our clients and help them move beyond a vague need for change into action and impact. From events to facilitation to consulting and coaching, we are able to support our clients' efforts no matter where they may take us.
