The Evoluter Incubator

The startup team designs & develops an all-capitals, all-stakeholders business model canvas, which then becomes the basis for incorporating the company to multiply all capitals, not just financial capital. This takes the startup through to having a business model validated with all of the stakeholders involved, and all of the capitals that the regenerative business touches.

This process takes at least three months, where participants complete 2 to 3 design sprints, developing hypotheses and testing them. Modules include: Business Model Canvas, Legal & IP, Financial Planning - Ergodic Strategies.

In parallel, the startup team lays the foundations for ongoing operations.

Startup teams will become proficient in using the latest approaches to working together, including consent / integrative decision-making, functional versus management accountability hierarchies, and agile, delegated, fluid roles. The basis is Sociocracy and Holacracy.

Participants, in facilitated workshops, will have proficiency in reaching rapid, efficient decisions that take into account all understanding from everyone in the team; in how to structure organisations as functional, human accountability hierarchies, So that the startups working processes can change faster than their changing business environment demands. This minimises the risk of startup failure caused by slow reactions, and information on opportunities and risks not reaching decision-makers in time. Companies using these processes consistently outperform their peers.

This is an intense, transformational process of self and team development. Participants, in live Dojo sessions, get to work on their inner and relational capacity to adapt and grow their socio-emotional, as well as cognitive capacity. By applying the Adaptive Way peer to peer developmental dialogue patterns in a safe space, you'll grow your capacity to be well equipped when conflict emerges and transform these tensions into strengths and personal growth.

In particular, participants develop proficiency in using nonviolent communication, Kegan’s Immunity to Change processes, and the systems thinking elements of the 28 post logical thought forms.

Even if a startup team or individual only progresses to the end of this 3 month programme, but does not incorporate, they will have gained personal skills they will use for the rest of their life.

These human interactivity processes are designed to minimise the risk of human energy being wasted on internal friction, so that all the available energy goes into delivering impact. Companies using these processes are becoming recognised as consistently outperforming their peers (e.g. Bridgwater).
