ACE Teams

Build highly collaborative teams.

Introducing our ACE Model (Acknowledge, Connect, Explore). Science shows this is the model that teams need the most to perform and collaborate at their highest level.

“This is something every team at Nike should do.”

Caitlin Sargent, VP NA Men’s Brand Marketing | Nike

Goal

It can be difficult to be on a team today. In a time of transition, teams need to feel heard, feel that they belong, and have positive momentum.

Insight

Science shows that teams need to take time to ACE acknowledge, connect, and explore together, especially in times of difficulty or transition.

Action 

Give your team ACE experience and skills training that will engage, refresh, and transform your teams. 

Nike Case Example

For this Nike Team, we created an ACE Team offsite in the hills of Los Angeles.

We helped them come together and tackle their biggest challenges.

Case Study

“This was groundbreaking for a team that has been through so much.”

Sahar ElGuindy, Sr. Director or Catalyst Brand Marketing,

The Science

Acknowledgment, connection, and exploration are evergreen human and team needs.

Research shows that in times of transition, difficulty, or uncertainty, like today, these needs are even more important.
