The FirstGrow Method is a system your teams can use to solve complex business challenges
- often in as few as five working sessions.
Structured, self-managed, and flexible.
The FirstGrow Method includes all the step-by-step guidance, tools, and techniques required to prepare and deliver the program.
FirstGrow is designed to incorporate a preparation phase (typically 4 – 6 weeks for best results) followed by a sequence of 6 working sessions and homework. Timeframes and cadence are flexible and can be adjusted to suit your individual requirements.
FirstGrow requires a facilitator (who may be from your team or your firm) who will guide the team through the phases plus a limited amount of additional research material. The program is designed to transition ownership to the team by the end of the fifth session to position them for execution success.
Our approach combines working sessions with focused homework assignments because developing new thinking patterns requires practice and reinforcement. By alternating between individual, paired, and team-based activities, the FirstGrow Method builds new mental frameworks progressively and consistently to help teams see differently and solve better.

How is FirstGrow different from other problem-solving or team-building programs?
FirstGrow is different because it is a system that incorporates:
Structured and established problem-solving techniques, drawn from years of management consulting experience, that help teams understand challenges in their context and rigorously analyze potential solutions.
Insights from cognitive psychology and neuroscience that inform how our brains makes sense of our world and how perceptual biases can inform, or even inhibit, our understanding of challenges and can make solutions harder to identify.
Learnings from elite teaming practices that can support the development of highly networked, value-aligned and trusted units.
FirstGrow stands apart because it is designed for teams to learn and run independently – building your team’s capability rather than developing another firm’s talent while they learn as they go. Further, the FirstGrow Method is designed to be effective when delivered either remotely or in person.

What will I need in order for my team to be able to run the FirstGrow Method independently?
Delivering the FirstGrow Method requires a facilitator, who can be sourced internally from your team or organization, or you may opt for our facilitation services. While not essential, we recommend additional support resources, especially for in-person delivery. A business sponsor and a budget will be required to cover costs such as facilities and catering (for in-person sessions), virtual team facilitation tools (if required), and minor material purchases. We also advise a preparation period of at least four weeks, extending to six weeks for in-person programs with complex logistics, for best results.
