Description
An investment in your employee’s health, happiness, and resilience—the capacity to turn risk and adversity to advantage—can shape your organization’s destiny.
Kokoro begins with a Resilience Survey conducted by your Directors of Human Resources and Operations. The data in the Survey provides key insights for an Assessment, Diagnosis, and a Practical Action Plan. Effective implementation then delivers measurable solutions to employee disengagement and consequent losses in productivity. The Kokoro process involves interactive conversations prompted and guided by Kokoro’s proprietary AI algorithms, wisdom sources (instantly on demand) and integral resilience methodologies. In 2025-2206 our central focus is on women led enterprises of 2500-5000 employees.
Kokoro is a uniquely positioned Core Competency Training and Productivity Support product provided as a SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) with cyber-secure training apps, coaching apps, workflow tools, AI-enabled team collaboration tools, and metrics. Kokoro accomplishes critical productivity outcomes by integrating 25 unique core organizational competencies in a holistic system which produces the singular effect that an increase in productivity of any one of these elements immediately increases the productivity of all the others.
This Compounding Multiplier Effect can be tracked, measured, and valued, using Kokoro’s proprietary analytics, and at every level—personal, organizational, and community—producing continuous and synergistic ROI and SROI (Social ROI).
The urgent and complex challenges of the 21st century cannot be met effectively by leaders who are unable to free themselves from 20th century vertically siloed, command-and-control thinking, which divorces the discerning wisdom of the heart from the intelligent genius of our creative minds. The times cry for a new evidence-based model that effectively brings the two together. Kokoro fills this void.
Acclaim for Julian’s work:
“Julian Gresser’s work shows with insight, style and imagination how integrity, that most fundamental of human virtues, continues to be vital to success, and even survival, in the ongoing negotiation of life in our rapidly changing world. The added value in Piloting Through Chaos is the author’s suggestions on how integrity can be cultivated by conscious thought and action, and on how core integrity can affect outcomes in a variety of contexts.”
– Peter L. Murray, Visiting Professor of Law, Harvard Law School
“The market is flooded with books and tapes about negotiating, but no one, until now, offers insight into the underlying essence of our interpersonal abilities. This fresh approach, if followed, can be transforming for us as individuals, and as a nation.”
– Claudine Schneider, Former U.S. Congresswoman
“Julian is 100% invested in teaching; an active listener; dedicated to ensuring that the class learns; he is high in energy and empathetic. What would my comments be to future participants? Exciting; out-of-the-box; has life application; fundamental to all relationships.”
– Bobbie Busha, Manager, BellSouth
“We need a cultural revolution as transformative as were the scientific and industrial revolutions. If human culture is to survive without unacceptable impacts on the planetary environment, we must live differently as a culture. This means that the arts and humanities are on the front lines of collaborating with scientists and engineers, we need a ‘second renaissance.’ Julian Gresser, in the second edition of “Piloting through Chaos,” presents a sharply focused methodology for attacking some of the urgent problems and seizing the new opportunities.”
– Roger Malina, Editor, Leonardo
“Julian Gresser is one of those rarest of teachers. He embodies the wisdom that he shares. His pioneering work in negotiation is a quantum leap in human understanding and will move people to their highest level of truth and accomplishment. The value is incalculable, not only to individuals, but to our society.”
– Michael Fitzgerald, Former Director, Washington State Department of Trade & Economic Development
“There is widespread agreement that leadership at any level and in any area requires integrity in the person, the practice, and the profession. It is also clear that this is no easy, simple task, nor can it remain at the mercy of luck, sentimental or institutional formation. Julian Gresser – lawyer, scholar, martial artist, and street-smart practitioner – now makes available the teaching and achievement of integrity in its integral form. As a foundation president, former commissioner, ambassador, and university president, I have had occasion to enlist Julian’s remarkable system and energies. He/it is a godsend for our troubled times and leaders.”
– Dr. Glen A. Olds, U.S. Ambassador to UNESCO
