Put people at the center, unleash the potential of your business
Put people at the center, unleash the potential of your business
The growth (or simple survival) of companies already depends, and will increasingly depend, on the ability to put people at the center: creating work environments that attract and retain individuals with the necessary technical skills aligned with the company’s values.
Kitsap is born with a clear mission: to support medium to large-sized businesses in creating favorable conditions to excel in the labor market by prioritizing people at the center.
Kitsap’s services revolve around three key areas:
How to effectively identify young individuals aligned with the company culture?
How to adapt the corporate culture in light of the (legitimate) demands of a generation that advocates a new set of values?
How to make the workplace perceived as a source of inspiration? What initiatives can be implemented across the board?
What tools allow mapping and addressing individual needs?
How to ensure that space is given to employees' personal lives without harming the company's competitiveness?
How to actually improve the internal atmosphere and, consequently, the company's results by achieving a better balance between work and life?
Kitsap offers customized services with a limited duration but a lasting impact on improving the company’s focus in the labor market.
Kitsap does not deal with reorganizations.
Kitsap does not provide training in soft skills.
Kitsap is not a recruiting agency.
Kitsap proposes experiential training programs that profoundly transform the way individuals act. Participants in Kitsap’s programs become agents of lasting and sustainable change.
Your company already has the potential to stand out. Kitsap simply takes care of unleashing it.
The “labor market” is undergoing profound transformations, as evidenced by some key indicators:
Companies are facing new and unfamiliar challenges in both attracting and retaining key resources:
The search for personnel no longer finds a response in “mechanical” tools mediating between supply and demand;
Classic motivational levers that companies have used for decades (incentive and fear) no longer have any effect on individuals. On the contrary, people seek “inspiring” jobs, and the company’s expectation of easily retaining individuals in whom it has invested heavily clashes with the trend of people leaving their jobs more easily.
Kitsap is born to design and deliver programs that facilitate the creation of favorable conditions for personal growth.
These programs are always based on strong team involvement, where experiences are proposed to create awareness of the current way of acting compared to the desired one and to build a path of sustainable change.
Kitsap’s programs include:
Duration
Aproximadamente 2 meses
Objective
10 personas jóvenes (internas o externas) y 10 personas mayores (puestos de middle y top management)
Description
The project aims to create a communicative and operational bridge between Generation Z individuals and older generations. It involves 10 individuals with medium-high responsibility roles (Seniors) and 10 young individuals from Generation Z or later, who can be selected from the company’s personnel or recruited specifically for the project (Juniors).
During the project, Juniors undergo a soft skills training program (interpersonal communication, giving and receiving feedback, public speaking, teamwork), while Seniors participate in meetings aimed at highlighting and correcting cognitive biases towards the new generations. Through numerous encounters, Juniors and Seniors establish the foundations for intergenerational dialogue, becoming Ambassadors within the company.

Duration

Objective
10/25 Senior individuals (middle and top management positions).
Description
This is a highly participative workshop where participants explore their cognitive biases related to Generation Z.
The focus will be on distinguishing facts from opinions and then delving into the origin of opinions: their own set of values that guide judgment.
Once this is done, participants will proceed to evaluate their judgment and be encouraged to correct any judgment modes they consider dysfunctional for dialogue. In doing so, the workshop concludes, during which each participant will draft a precise Action Plan with actions they intend to take to modify their behaviors in relation to Junior colleagues, based on changes in their judgment system.
During the project, Juniors undergo a soft skills training program (interpersonal communication, giving and receiving feedback, public speaking, teamwork), and Seniors participate in a series of meetings aimed at highlighting and correcting cognitive biases towards the new generations. Through numerous encounters, Juniors and Seniors lay the groundwork for intergenerational dialogue, becoming Ambassadors within the company.

25+ individuals in middle management roles (or Junior individuals who are being considered for a middle management position in the short or medium term).
Description
This is an interactive and educational journey that leads participants to gain full awareness of how they communicate, give/receive feedback, and exercise leadership. Each gaming session concludes with a feedback moment where analogies between the game and professional life are analyzed (e.g., conditions of uncertainty, changing demands over time, etc.) and the participants’ reactions are discussed. Participants are divided into groups and compete for the ultimate prize. However, they will only discover at the end that winning is not just about accumulating points during the challenges, as the group that collaborated better (effective communication) and managed the competition better (maintaining constructive dialogue with opponents without succumbing to tension) always emerges victorious.

Duration
3 days
Objective
6/12 senior individuals (in top management roles).
Description
This is a 3-day Retreat (including 2 nights) attended by the key figures in the company. Those holding high-responsibility roles are tasked with setting the “direction” for the company (and, consequently, for all employees).
This responsibility, combined with the constant whirlwind of urgencies that top executives are forced to handle, can distance them from the physical and mental balance essential for fulfilling such a fundamentally important task. The journey constitutes a moment of pause and reflection in which participants will be called upon to depict their routine and compare it with the set of personal and business objectives that are important to achieve. Discrepancies will emerge from the comparison (e.g., large gaps in the schedule dedicated to secondary activities solely due to the need to address urgencies). The experience concludes, very operationally, with participants drafting a list of corrective actions to align the routine with priorities so that they can always be “present in their present.”

6/12 individuals in top management roles not only rejuvenated but, above all, aware of the changes they need to make in their routines and equipped for change through the drafting of an action plan to implement. The group dynamics created during the experience are crucial because they foster a collaborative spirit that will lead all participants to support each other in implementing the action plan after the experience.

Objective
10/25 senior individuals (in middle and top management roles).
Description
This is a highly participative workshop where participants are led to reflect on how crucial it is to build a good balance between personal and work life to a) bring employees to peak performance; b) it is much more complex than simply allowing flexibility and remote work. Once they become aware of this, participants are invited to think about how many and what levers they can actually act upon to develop an optimal condition of work-life balance. Finally, each participant will draft a list of all their collaborators and, for each one, envision a set of proposals that are both appealing to the collaborators and sustainable for the company.

Objective
10/25 senior individuals (in middle and top management roles).
Description
Companies are made up of people. The essence of a company derives from the combination of its corporate culture, mission, and vision. During this highly participative experience, participants will be guided through a deep reflection on the set of behavioral norms that constitute the culture of their company. Additionally, the very purpose of the company and where it will position itself in the medium to long term (vision) will be discussed.
At the end of this brainstorming session, all participants will be able to draft a list of the company’s own values. These values (the quintessence of the company) will then be translated into “other languages” through a highly sensory experience. For example, this might involve creating a perfume or a dish that expresses those values or associating the values with a type of wine.
