Our philosophy

In 2020 founder Ingrid Valks introduced the Humanity & Vitality Wheel. The wheel forms the foundation of all our programs. It consists of six pillars to develop personal competences and four modules to practice well-being. It’s a balanced set of foundation tools for future-ready leaders.

Attendees experiment with new leadership behavior and participate in educational experiences in order to:

  • unleash their potential
  • achieve a better understanding of their purpose
  • boost their professional influence
  • train emotional intelligence
  • grow sustainable connections

Develop human skills
as foundation tools |
Attract & Engage human capital

Human skills will be in higher demand across industries. Human skills are personal competences that require a mind-body-heart connection and describe a wide range of characteristics relevant to collaborate effectively and harmoniously in teams, leading responsibly and being self-aware.

BeyondU is the name of our personal growth program for high potentials and top performers in business, science and society. The program contains the six pillars and the four modules of the Humanity & Vitality Wheel. Attendees participate in blended educational experiences, live, online and offgrid. Attendees achieve a better understanding of their purpose, share their true identity with the world, understand the impact of values and beliefs on interaction with others, boost emotional intelligence, experiment with new leadership behavior and they can recognize and lead ehtical dilemmas at work.

The European Commission evaluated BeyondU as ‘innovative and outstanding’.

Practice well-being

Reduce absence costs

The holistic approach of our well-being plan has a proven transformative impact. In our BeVital program we work with the Vitality Wheel that includes four modules: mind training, nature connection, nutrition & lifestyle and strategies to promote sound sleep. You can lead your employees to practice well-being as a foundation skill. It can improve mental resilience at the workplace with up to 5.6%, reduce stress symptoms with 28,2% and realize a measured 19.9% reduction in psychological exhaustion.

And beyond the numbers lay a deeper truths. Participants share a better understanding of themselves, better focus, structure to the day and last but not least a feeling of camaraderie as you to it together with colleagues. Together it is more easy and more fun. People from over 22 countries did already participate in our bE-Vital plan. We call our preventive interventions, educational experiences: action learning. It is easy to understand and no experience is required.

Foundation

We believe that human skills are power skills. They are personal attributes that enable someone to be self-aware and to interact effectively and harmoniously with other people. Resulting in all new levels of performance, productivity and personal satisfaction. Resulting in sustainable relationships, friendships and alliances.
