Outthinker Practitioners Network

The Practitioners Network’s Objective

Develop a vibrant global community of growth strategy and innovation professionals, coaches, and consultants certified to use Outthinker tools and methodologies. This community supports each other in enhancing, cementing and sustaining the strategic capacity and innovation acumen of network members as well as within the organizations they work with. Together we find meaning in our work and make a difference.

Our Members

A global network of Outthinker Certified professionals, coaches and consultants who share a passion for leading growth strategy and innovation programs so their clients can step into the future and execute with clarity today.

Step into the future. Execute with Clarity.

“One of the hardest things for a client is true innovation, leaders know giving people a blank canvas and telling them to come up with an idea does not work. Outthinker empowers me as a coach to lead my clients through a step by step, rigorous process and know that it will deliver ideas the client can actually use."
Jeff Moore - Business Coach
