The difference

The competition of all arguments. Everyone sits on the jury. You decide.

The Idea Duel: it’s not who says it that counts, but what convinces.

What if it escalates?

Every contribution is reviewed before it appears. Nobody sees names or a ranking that could fuel a pile-on, and coordinated voting gains nothing.

“We were able to defuse controversies.” Peter Ammann, municipal councillor, Besenbüren, on the heated topic of waste

What if only wishes end up on top?

Anyone can wish. But in the duel, each person has to choose between two concerns, again and again. So you see which wishes many share and which only a few.

“Wishful thinking demanded by individuals was in part pushed far down the list.” Peppino Beffa, Mayor of Schwyz

What if we lose control?

We define the questions together, you see the results first, and you are the first to respond to them. You decide what to put into practice.

“When critical issues come to the table, that's not a risk but an opportunity.” Martin Werthmüller, CEO, Uster Hospital

How a dialogue works →

Insight guarantee

You set the standard. We carry the risk.

You name six assumptions per question in advance. If on average fewer than five of the ten strongest contributions are new to you, we do not invoice you for the dialogue.

In our 60+ dialogues, on average eight of the ten strongest contributions were new to our clients.

How the guarantee works

for the executive team

Will your plans be backed?

Involve employees in decision-making before you commit.

The higher the position, the rarer the unfiltered feedback.

In the leadership dialogue, your employees say anonymously where the organisation really stands. Nobody sets the ranking in advance: it emerges from their own judgements.
