Renaissance Team will then cascade this approach throughout the company. We develop tailored workshops for each team, focusing on how they contribute to the organizations creative output and overall innovation culture. We use a variety of assessments to identify specific areas where training and interventions are most helpful. For instance, if “Risk-Taking” is low, we might develop workshops on psychological safety and how to create a culture where experimentation is encouraged. We could also create online modules and resources to reinforce the key concepts and make them accessible to everyone.

Assessments we may recommend

The Situational Outlook Questionnaire (SOQ) is a validated assessment that measures the creative climate of an organization across nine key dimensions, such as Trust, Risk-Taking, Idea Time, and Challenge/Involvement. These environmental factors, the SOQ reveals how conducive an organization’s climate is to innovation and creativity. Organizations that understand and actively shape their climate using SOQ insights are better positioned to unlock the creative potential of their teams, foster cross-functional collaboration, and reduce barriers to new ideas and change. This leads to higher employee engagement, increased adaptability, and a measurable boost in innovation outcomes—all critical drivers of long-term organizational success​.

The Kirton Adaption-Innovation Inventory (KAI) is a powerful psychometric tool that measures an individual’s preferred cognitive style for solving problems—ranging from highly adaptive to highly innovative. Rather than focusing on skill or capacity, KAI reveals how people prefer to think and approach challenges. In team environments, understanding these preferences helps reduce friction, enhance collaboration, and align problem-solving approaches with the needs of the task. By leveraging KAI, organizations can build more effective teams, increase psychological safety, and foster an environment where diverse thinking styles are seen as assets. The result is improved communication, stronger engagement, and more robust, creative solutions to complex challenges.

FourSight is a research-based assessment that identifies how individuals and teams prefer to engage in the creative problem-solving process—specifically through the lenses of Clarifier, Ideator, Developer, and Implementer. Rather than measuring ability, FourSight reveals where people feel most energized during problem solving. By understanding these preferences, teams can better navigate the natural tensions that occur during innovation work, reduce frustration, and improve collaboration. Organizations that utilize FourSight gain a strategic advantage by building balanced teams, aligning people to the right phases of a project, and ensuring that all stages of the innovation process—clarifying the challenge, generating ideas, developing solutions, and implementing outcomes—are effectively supported. This leads to more efficient problem solving, higher engagement, and stronger innovation outcomes.
