According to an ancient Chinese business alchemy, as described by Colin Turner in Shooting the Monkey, the carriage can be likened to the body, the powerful horse to one's feelings and desires, the driver is the mind, and one's will is the master of them all. "Of what good is the strength of the horse and the control of the harness, if the direction of the will guiding the driver's hand is elsewhere?" In modern driving competitions there is also the groom, whose job is to balance the carriage in turns, keep track of time, and help the driver stay on the right course. So much like the modern business coach!
Cavesson offers
- LeadRope® leadership training and coaching for leaders and executives
- Recharge® days for teams and private groups
LeadRope® corporate coaching and training programs are for everyone who needs to work with, lead and motivate others. The powerful training concept of LeadRope® is based on established theoretical framework, years of experience in creating effective learning environments, and sharing research based information that is rarely taught in corporate training.
We work with you around a mutually agreed topic but also throw in a few surprises and changes, like life itself. We target the ‘unexpected important’ that rarely has forum in other types of trainings. To support our objective we keep the number of participants small. Our long experience in facilitation processes has turned us into highly skilled ‘floaters’ in the present moment. We have no problem in riding any unexpected wave that emerges during the workshop. Our slides don’t get mixed up and we don’t loose our stride due to unpredicted directions of conversation. What ever comes up does so for a reason. In addition you will:
- get tangable experiences in the invisible forms of communication.
- understand why someone gets people working effectively in bad times while someone else has difficulties even when things go well. And what to do about it.
- understand why with some people you understand the words but keep missing their logic, or find yourself misunderstood. And then what.
- get a chance to test your automatic, most natural ways of approaching others and decide if there is anything you would like to add or change
- learn to hear your body's signals more cleary when experiencing frustration, anxiety, stress etc. so you can take care of yourself better
- find the beginning of the road to your inner balance so that you will have enough peace of mind to truly hear the messages others are sending your way. Better motivation, better communication all around and, hence, less misunderstanding and more trust, more personal courage and impact.
- learn how to build authentic communities
We can assist you in
- learning to know yourself well enough to tap into all your inner wisdom, joy, peace and strength
- discovering your triggers and knowing how not to over-react or lapse into dominance, intimidation, victimization or alienation
- becoming aware of messages behind own emotions and those of others, and how to use the information
- becoming an authentic leader who carries around an atmospher of calmness that stems from inner balance, enthusiasm that easily rubs on others, uses the power of will and intention ethically and constructively, and is able to effectively lead and motivate others
- practice to experience how a shift in focus drops your dance partner on empty, and how not to - or to use it deliberately to defuse a situation

Equine Assisted Coaching
On workshops and coaching intensives arranged at Savikko farm you may even sharpen your social emotional intelligence with horses specificly trained in equine assisted coaching EAC. This method offers a "racecar drive" to deeper awareness and new ways of seeing old situations. Ten minutes of EAC - activity usually gives material for thirty minutes of processing! Horses are wonderful teachers of all aspects of nonverbal communication, intention, boundaries, staying present, and being assertive without dominating. All activities happen feet on the ground and no prior knowledge of horses is needed. Its okay to even be afraid of them!
In a fun yet powerful way you can investigate what it takes to be a true consensual leader. There is a huge radar system inside every person and one doesn’t have to become a serious practitioner of eastern marshal arts to gain some benefit of it. It is actually easier to listen to it than to spend 24 hours a day blocking its messages out of consciousness. Less energy spent.
LeadRope® - Team Experience
includes activities that guarantee even the most seasoned corporate adventurers new insights, ideas, revelations even, and charge the participants with new sources We are professionals in taking team-building up to the level of team performance-building. Since over the years its been shown that standard experiential team-building activities, although fun and educational, tend to have a rather weak impact on work performance, we have worked hard to develop a combination of approaches and methods that work better. Some of the most important elements in team success cannot be targeted with standard team-building exercises but Cavesson's EAC - workshops now cover the gabs.
