Clear & empowering cultures are what we support.

The story behind our name

If you know rugby you sure know about the legendary team, The All Blacks. During the world cup in England in 2015 Jon Curry spent an afternoon with the team’s sports psychologist, Gilbert Enoka “The Custodian of Culture”.

The meeting with Gilbert Enoka had a major impact on Jon. Because Gilbert Enoka was able to crystallise the way Jon has always been thinking and acting as a coach and consultant:

Skillset and structure are very important, but mindset is the key to success. You must work with the culture within – no matter if you are working with groups, a couple or an individual. If you get the culture right, you can achieve almost anything.
