“Fuel” your group’s discovery and innovation through collaborative design processes
Our discovery services are for those of you in need of group facilitation, but are looking for a departure from the same old, hum-drum, “this is the way it’s always been done”, static, isolated, not at all fun, and slow way of so called innovation. We will guide your team through a fun, inspiring, get-’er-done, guided, collaborative process that leads to both individual and group satisfying results. We know exactly how to unleash your great ideas and direct your team down the path of enduring sustainable innovation.
‘Collaborative design’ through group facilitation is the best way to bring great ideas into the world.
Ahhhhh, the rush and excitement of creating something new. Sometimes however, that excitement can dwindle as you attempt to use various means of group facilitation to bring that idea into reality. Once your team begins to lose that energy and momentum it can lead to mediocre results or worse; a broken dream that never comes to fruition.
If You Can’t See Beyond the Forest …”
Sometimes we get so immersed, attached, and involved in the details of a problem to look at it objectively, and finding an appropriate solution can be tedious or wearisome. What’s needed is a fresh vantage point, and a skilled facilitator or guide to show you the way out of the woods. As group facilitators, we know how to access and leverage individual talent and knowledge so that true innovation can take place.
If You’re Tired of Labeling, Blame, and Low Productivity
Humans have a tendency to segregate, place everything in a box and label them. True, this type of assessment and judgment is necessary in order to help us make sense of the world, but at the same time it can limit our view and blind us to the solutions we seek. Discovery Fuel group facilitation will help you realize that nothing in your organization is truly isolated. It’s a concept we refer to as an “Ecology of Design”. By working with the system as it truly is (interdependent and interconnected) creates a meaningful, stimulating, and fun co-design process. It’s a much more interesting and fascinating way of group facilitation, problem solving, and innovating.
When It’s Gotta Be Meaningful, Loaded with Purpose, and Overflowing with Good Intentions
To be truly innovative, the problem solving or discovery process as well as the end result must have meaning for both the unique individuals involved as well as the group as a whole. We’ve found that creating meaningful innovation is not a solo endeavor. It can only come through group participation and collaborative interactive design. Does that work for you? If so, contact us, for a free, no-charge assessment. We promise to be informative and not pushy.
How does it work?
Discovery Fuel uses a device of our own creation called a Colab.TM A Colab is a unique group facilitation technique that creates a highly productive atmosphere where your participants feel valued and free to contribute their ideas. Our 
facilitators guide your team, classroom, or company to develop creative solutions to complex, technical, or organizational problems. All the while leveraging your existing group talent to maximize innovation throughout your entire company. We have a variety to choose from:
- Collaborative Design Techniques
- Meetings & Retreats Facilitation
- Workshop Design Planning and Oversight
- Team Work & Authentic Leadership
- Company (or Group) Project Facilitation
- Green or Sustainable Business Planning
- Executive and Management Coaching
- Sustainable Innovation Expertise
- Values Assessments and Meaningful Work
- Advanced Decision-making Processes
And more. Check out our full list of services under ‘What’s a Colab?‘.
Where does this group facilitation stuff get done?
Here, there, or anywhere … No really, we’re serious!
No matter! Discovery Fuel can accommodate. So contact us for free no-pressure conversation.
Green & Sustainability are important to us … How about you?
Primarily, we work with organizations that want to make the shift toward sustainability or green business practices. We feel that, in our current world climate, the ability for an organization to adapt quickly and responsibly is no longer an option but is now a critical requirement for success. Now when we speak of “sustainability”, we aren’t simply talking about “green”. We are talking about sustainability in an all encompassing way with a eye toward the big picture. We call it Whole System Innovation – otherwise known as Sustainable Innovation. There’s other related phrases like “People Planet Profit” and “Ecology Economy Equity”, etc. If you really want to know more, click on the links above.
So, what’s our bottom line?
(Actually, we use a ‘triple’ bottom line…) Effective group facilitation leads to better decision-making, happier people, faster innovation, and a “greener” more sustainable organization; resulting in more profits with a distinct advantage over your competition. The proof is in the experience. Need a good jolt into the right direction? Try this …

Here’s where the idea of ‘collaboration’ is going
The concept of collaboration has still not grabbed the masses in terms of its deeper potential. It’s still got a cutsy kind of feel to it that people do when they are not busy. Instead, we need to realize that collaboration is now redefining what it means to be busy. It is becoming ‘the’ vehicle [...]

How are we defining innovation? > HAARP advances in Tesla technology
This is a very interesting video that forces one to think on a larger scale. Staring with Tesla, the HAARP project has brought our planet both positive and scary dangerous possibilities. I do believe that our intent to innovate does not yet include enough considerations in its development. We need an ecology of design to [...]
