Difficult Problems Made Easy With Nobel Prize Thinking
Tricky challenges are made easy because we use the SchellingPoint methodology and technology platform.
This is a blend of ingenious knowledge in the deeply human dynamics of business that makes all the difference between brilliance and mediocrity.
This methodology completely revolutionizes the way to properly align people on the best way to attack a problem.
It is by far the most reliable and effective way of getting a group from “we each think this” to “we all agree to do that”.
The SchellingPoint Methodology
COMBINING 3 SCHOOLS OF INNOVATIVE INTELLIGENCE TO MOVE A GROUP FROM “WE EACH THINK THIS” TO “WE ALL AGREE TO DO THAT”.

Fast. Reliable. Smart.
No other method comes close to delivering this standard of performance.
The Technology
To run a successful SchellingPoint collaboration, every person who is involved in the work should be included. That means a vast array of data and analytics needs to be processed as well as roadmaps and scorecards generated and efficient tracking. SchellingPoint has a powerful software platform to make it possible to manage these technicalities to make it possible to improve the results of any strategic collaboration.
SchellingPoint has been used in over 450 projects worldwide ranging from small entrepreneurial groups to large enterprises with thousands of participants.
We run the entire process of getting the agreed coordinated actions you need. That’s what we do. And make it easy for you. All the ideas and solutions will come from the group or ecosystem which means they will be exactly correct for your situation. We will never pretend we are experts and tell you what you should or shouldn’t do.
