Existing programs
Proven expedition formats, used at specific leadership moments
The programmes below reflect Learning Expeditions we’ve delivered previously. They are shown as examples, not fixed packages, to help leaders identify when this type of intervention is most useful.
Luxury & Consumer Market Immersion
If this sounds familiar:
“Our strategy still makes sense, but it’s no longer aligned with how premium customers actually behave.”
This programme is used when leadership teams need to recalibrate their understanding of consumer behaviour in live environments, not through reports.
What leaders experience:
guided immersion through key retail districts
time inside flagship and concept stores observing real customer behaviour
closed-door conversations with brand and CX operators
daily facilitated synthesis to pressure-test assumptions and extract implications
Typical duration: 4–5 days
Example locations: Seoul · Tokyo · Shanghai
Retail & Platform Transformation Expedition
If this sounds familiar:
“We know what channels and distribution methods matter — but execution feels slower and harder than expected.”
Used when organisations are rethinking platforms, fulfilment, and execution at scale.
What leaders experience:
end-to-end customer journey walkthroughs
visits to stores, dark stores, and logistics operations
conversations with platform, data, and technology operators
working sessions focused on execution realities, not theory
Typical duration: 4–5 days
Example locations: Shanghai · Shenzhen · Singapore
Innovation Ecosystem & Start-up Exposure
If this sounds familiar:
“Innovation feels urgent — but we’ve fallen into a comfortable rhythm and we need more inspiration.”
Used when leaders need to reset expectations around speed, risk, and decision-making.
What leaders experience:
time inside accelerators and venture ecosystems
direct conversations with founders operating under constraint
exposure to rapid iteration and decision cycles
synthesis separating what’s transferable from what isn’t
Typical duration: 3–4 days
Example locations: Shenzhen · Berlin · Tel Aviv · San Francisco
Market Entry & Regional Expansion Expedition
If this sounds familiar:
We’re expanding into a new market, but most of what we know comes from HQ assumptions.
Used before committing capital or structure in unfamiliar geographies.
What leaders experience:
guided neighbourhood and market immersion
meetings with local operators, partners, and experts
observation of consumer behaviour in context
structured reflection on what will — and won’t — translate
Typical duration: 4–5 days
Example locations: China (Tier-1 & Tier-2 cities) · Southeast Asia · Middle East
Strategic Committee & Senior Leadership Expedition
If this sounds familiar:
We’re aligned on paper — but not yet grounded in the same reality.
Used ahead of major decisions, transformations, or resets.
What leaders experience:
targeted exposure aligned to specific strategic questions
expert briefings followed by facilitated dialogue
shared synthesis sessions to align interpretation
a final focus on priorities, risks, and ownership
Typical duration: 3–4 days
Example locations: Strategy-aligned regional hubs or growth markets
