About Us
After countless conversations across industries about the struggles of working across generations — especially with Gen Z — we sat down to work on how to turn these generational frustrations into opportunities for growth.
Both sides (managers and team members) have very valid frustrations, but the problem we’ve found is that the frustrations remain within the individual groups instead of being shared and actioned. Which is where our programs come in, bringing your teams together to better understand how individuals from different generations want to be managed and supported.
We work with teams to identify problems, understand different generations through the latest research and facilitate interactive workshops that spark curious discussions, meaningful connections and team lead solutions to better ways of working.
WHY NO UMBRELLAS?
Don’t get us wrong, we love an umbrella (especially in Melbourne when you need to be prepared for ‘four seasons in one day!’) problem is they close you off, stop you interacting with the environment, looking up and seeing the beauty of the day.
Our name comes from the idea of people bringing an “Umbrella to a Brainstorm”. No Umbrellas is about leaving yourself exposed, to being vulnerable and available to new ideas – after all you can’t grow anything without some rainfall.
Through sharing the latest research and facilitating interactive activities; we spark curious conversations, ‘ah-ha’ moments, fresh perspectives and co-create actionable takeaways.
