Corporate Retreats Workshops Programs

I co-design with you and your team to facilitate experiential experiences (outdoors whenever possible) which push members out of their comfort zone into a new hands-on learning environment, to not only re-discover how they show up on their team, but uncover new aspects of each person’s leadership style, creating long-lasting tangible results.

When new teams merged, I co-design activities (interactive games, simulations, role plays, and other structured experiences) which create greater team spirit, cohesion, personal trust, resulting in role clarity and a sense of ONE TEAM. “Tapping the collective wisdom of the ‘system’ rather than telling people what to do, builds shared leadership at all levels of the organization.” - Systems Inspired Leadership.

From facilitating fireside chats in the desert with a leader and his team, to co-leading cultural change initiatives across an organisation, I blend my facilitative coaching and change management expertise to create safe spaces for deep, transformative sharing leading to new insights resulting in deepened relationships with new levels of trust. To start the process, I recommend all members engage in one or two of the several assessments I offer, including the online Systems Inspired Leadership assessment https://www.aoidosleadership.com/systems-inspired-leadership-free-assessement/

Our 3-month evidence-based blended learning / behavioural change program yielded consisted results over the 2-year-roll-out: **Karen delivered to 10+ cohorts (12-15 leaders in each) travelling across various locations in Saudi targeting key business hubs (Corporate, Abqaiq, Ras Tanura) as well as remote areas in the desert (Shaybah and Tanajib), incorporating action learning: pre- and post-assessments, interactive, engaging workshops, with application in the business (OTJ assignments), video-taped feedback, teach-backs, 1:1 and group coaching, and support throughout. (Bilingual available when Karen and Ahmed co-facilitate/co-lead).

An interactive, get-out-of your-comfort-zone workshop to embrace the cultural diversity across teams, incorporating the Cultural Orientation Framework (COF) and best practices from Philippe Rosinski’s research in “Coaching Across Cultures”.

The 8-week PQ Group Coaching Program (includes the Mental Fitness/PQ app) partners with you to uncover your blind spots and inner critics, weaken your barriers to higher levels of performance, accelerating your mental fitness (EQ, PQ, Growth Mindset). Facilitated and coached by Karen du Four des Champs, PCC, CPCC, OSRC, COF, PQ Coach, with Shirzad Chamine, MBA (on video) Stanford lecturer, NYT best-selling author of Positive Intelligence, and founder of the PQ Program.

Executive Coaching (becoming a Leader 2.0)

I recommend beginning the process with one or two of the several assessments I offer.

GROUP COACHING is partnering with a group of individuals who share a common interest, learning experience, or desired skill where the coach and other group members offer support and inspiration to maximize individual abilities and potential. For example, a group of people may come together to be coached on effective leadership skills, but everyone has their own final performance goals for which they are being held accountable. Sizes range from 6-8; 12 is ideal. Groups meet frequently. I recommend beginning the process with one or two of the several assessments I offer.

TEAM COACHING is partnering in a co-creative and reflective process with a team and its dynamics and relationships in a way that inspires them to maximize their abilities and potential in order to reach their common purpose and shared goals. Team coaching coaches the team. It is not addressing leader behaviour. Each team member assesses their own key leadership competencies by taking the online Systems Inspired Leadership assessment to gain deeper insight individually, which collectively assesses the team’s strength, with identifying areas to focus and grow. https://www.aoidosleadership.com/systems-inspired-leadership-free-assessement/
