EUROCLEAR:
TEAM INNOVATION
The Challenge
This executive team had the opportunity to be more than the sum of its parts – to make better use of its collective skills – to enhance innovation. In order to help foster creativity, the Chief Executive Officer identified the need to challenge the team’s traditional affiliative style and increase its comfort level with constructive dissent, viewing it positively.
The Approach
Physical Intelligence techniques were used to address collaboration and innovation and challenge silo’ed thinking/protectionism. Participants were introduced to posture and breathing techniques to achieve low cortisol and alert relaxation, essential for innovation and to develop the mental strength and clarity to manage their threat response in the midst of innovation – linking their mindset to physicality. They learned what types of movements support convergent vs. divergent thinking and how to relax their minds to foster creative connections. As a team, they collaborated on an exercise designed to promote divergent thinking and constructive dissent and learned how to counteract negative bias. They also learned the importance of networks and social intelligence as opposed to silo’ed thinking to create an environment that fosters the ongoing exchange of ideas.
The Physical Intelligence group session was followed by one-on-one coaching on the use of physical intelligence techniques to reinforce the core concepts introduced during the group session and provide individual support tailored to each team member.
The ROI
Within only weeks of the training, it was clear that the team was working together better and interacting in a more effective way. Each individual’s performance and level of confidence had clearly improved. Within months, operating results had increased, feedback from clients had improved, and the team had received excellent feedback from regulators. In addition, because executive team members were more empowered, they, in turn, more effectively empowered their teams, freeing up more time for the executive team to work on strategic planning vs. tactics. As new individuals have joined the team, they have recognized and commented positively on the open collaboration and constructive approach the team takes and its comfort level with challenging each other’s thinking. On a personal level, the physical intelligence training had also positively impacted the personal life for many team members, enabling them to more effectively manage their professional and personal lives.

WHAT IS PHYSICAL INTELLIGENCE?
Right now, hundreds of chemicals (hormones and neurotransmitters) are racing through each of our bodies, in our bloodstreams and nervous systems. Those chemicals dictate how we think, feel, speak and behave. Yet, most of us operate largely at the mercy of those chemicals – experiencing reactions, emotions and thoughts without realizing that we can strategically influence them.
Physical Intelligence is the ability to detect and actively manage the balance of key chemicals in our bodies so that we can achieve more, stress less, and live and work more happily. That’s important because while we all know that we are living in a time of unprecedented change – what many people don't know is that human beings are not evolving as quickly as the pace of change, leaving many of us feeling threatened, overwhelmed and stressed.
While many of those hundreds of chemicals we can't and wouldn't want to influence, there are a number of key chemicals that we can and should influence. Those work in combination to explain helpful and unhelpful, constructive and unconstructive, responses to situations at home, at work, and at play. When the balance is right, we call it the ‘Winning Cocktail’. We can impact that chemical cocktail through hundreds of techniques – ways of breathing, moving, thinking, visualising, and engaging with others.
Physical Intelligence is relevant for people at all stages of life and in every imaginable role. We have helped individuals, teams, and organisations transform their performance through Physical Intelligence and would love to have the opportunity to do the same for you.
