Leadership

KIVIK®: an interactive approach with high impact and lasting results


Do you want to increase the productivity and efficiency of your business? Looking for an experience that you and your colleagues will remember for a long time and is fun too? Is it your job to train our future top managers?

In that case, we welcome you at KIVIK®. To develop a personal and professional leadership, we present to you a unique and powerful approach.  Our most important facilitators have four legs, a sensitive soul and weigh a 1000 pounds or more.

Today’s managers need, more then ever, leadership skills, social skills, emotional intelligence and creativity. A good leader often takes those things for granted and does them spontaneously, but every manager is able to develop those skills.  Kivik® teaches your employees an authentic leadership in a safe and constructive environment. Leadership coaching with horses prepares your managers for the ultimate multitasking that is required of tomorrow's most powerful and influential leaders.

Have you ever asked yourself why the team isn’t exactly doing what the manager asked them to do? Could the motivation and dedication be better under his or her command?  Our unique horse assisted approach tells your managers why. Well chosen exercises with the horses present a mirror and allows them , with the help of the coach, to come to crucial insights about their leadership style and qualities.

The herd depends on good leadership and role acceptance within the herd to survive. Because the horses can be cooperative participants as well as reluctant participants, as employees can be, they form the perfect partnership to teach us more about leadership and teamwork.  When a manager asks the horses to do something, their ( reluctant or cooperative) response will provide immediate and unbiased feedback. It will show him or her what really works  well and what his or her challenges are. This feedback comes from the horses, but is a good reflection of what happens in the work place. Horses don’t judge, they just react intuitively to what happens. They are the ideal partners on the road to true leadership.

You can’t learn to ride a bicycle or play golf by reading a book about it, the same goes for leadership. You have to assimilate this skill by experience. There are three important aspects in learning: language, emotion and body. By combining those three, KIVIK® offers you an interactive training with high impact and lasting results for your managers and thus for your business.

Horse assisted coaching is the most powerfull way to learn about and explore ones emotional intelligence, and how this impacts their leadership.

We make videos of all the interactions with the horses (of course for your use only). This allows the participants to review everything from a different perspective. As a spectator, you often dicover surprising insights. On demand, we can make a compilation video of the training. A beautiful reminder of this unique program.
