The Kendall Bhave company was founded by Charlotte Kendall, who holds a master's degree in educational psychology, and stems from a lifelong interest in understanding people. 

A human aspect runs throughout leadership and team sparring. The majority of what is taught and discussed is based on self-awareness, self-reflection and the implementation of knowledge and associated tools to strengthen and develop the ability to see ourselves, each other and the situation or relationship from multiple perspectives. In all development and learning, we encounter resistance and frustration and here we must learn to meet and handle reactions and communicate constructively. Sparring can be crucial in terms of venting, maintaining commitment and implementation, which is why a program is always recommended.

Kendall Bhave and partners believe that understanding and developing peopleis the key to success and decent workplaces . If we don't spend time on the soft stuff, over time it can end up being hard. 

Clear frameworks, roles, goals, objectives, timeframes, and responsibilities are prerequisites for value-creating facilitation, reflection, efficiency, and development. 

Prerequisites for cooperation

To ensure meaningful and value-adding collaboration, I expect:

– Clear goals and objectives for sparring, teaching, and courses

– Clear agreements regarding roles, tasks to be performed, involvement, and process

– HR/management/participants are open to dialogue, sparring, reflection, and responsibility

– Time and agreements are respected

A fixed agenda for teaching, theme days, and courses is:

Introductory dialogue, a theme, dialogue exercise and reflection, training with everyday cases, facilitation of reflection and learning, as well as commitment/agreements and tasks that are followed up on.

If we enter into an agreement for a team or well-being program, it is natural and expected that personal reaction patterns will be activated during the process and that there may be a need to work with 1:1 sparring .

Trust is the foundation of all collaboration and a prerequisite for us to open up genuinely, show vulnerability, listen attentively, recognize development needs and reach out for help.

Theory and solutions from others can get us ahead quickly, but can also (despite good intentions) leave us feeling incompetent and less effective in developing personal skills. 

Sparring is therefore a fundamental element at Kendall Bhave and starts even before a collaboration. We discuss your challenges, previous efforts, future needs, what you would like to learn, develop or train, which tools would make sense, how we put together a framework and content. There will always be a combination of knowledge, teaching and facilitation, coaching, mentoring, concrete tools and case exercises so that what you learn is implemented and fine-tuned. Follow-up is always recommended as change in behavior happens over time.

All sparring takes place in a confidential space where we focus on learning and developing leadership and personal skills and how these can be developed in relation to the workplace.

A pervasive focus and development point at Kendall Bhave is to understand oneself and understand others in order to develop skills that can help us act and communicate more consciously in both leadership and collaboration when we want to stand out - without stepping on others.
