From hands-on workshops to culture-wide transformation

When those dynamics are intentionally co-design by the team , trust strengthens, focus returns, and psychological safety becomes a living part of everyday work — reducing the silent costs of stress, disconnection, and disengagement.

Most teams don’t stumble because of poor strategy — they struggle because unspoken emotions and invisible dynamics quietly shape how people relate, decide, and show up.

Turn invisible TEAM dynamics into shared Direction.

Humanity Tiles® Workshops help teams surface what really matters — transforming hidden tensions into alignment, clarity, and trust that lasts.

Our workshops

CYCLE

Teams bring their TeamPacts® to life in real moments—during meetings, feedback, or tough decisions. Practicing together strengthens trust, fosters accountability, and allows Pacts to evolve as new insights emerge.

4.

Helping teams bring their own TeamPacts® to life — making change visible, shared, and actionable

The team agrees on behavioral pacts they are ready to adopt, to redirect unhelpful dynamics into actions that move the team forward.

3.

Co-Designing TeamPacts®: shared and alive agreements

We create space for teams to surface opportunities and frictions that are rarely voiced. Like a game, participants bring to light the emotions, tensions, unspoken rules, and personal truths that often stay hidden.

1.

Through guided workshops and brave reflections, teams surface what’s often left unsaid

Reflections and lived experiences are explored, named, and connected. Emerging patterns and repetitions reveal collective truths, laying the groundwork for meaningful behavior shifts.

2.

Transforming insights into shared understanding

A transformative team culture co-design system that helps teams see, feel, and shape their culture from the inside out — grounded in real experiences of how people work, connect, and grow together.

The Humanity Tiles® SYSTEM

We operate at the intersection of emotional intelligence, behavioral change, and psychological safety, helping leaders and teams co-design the culture they want to live every day.

Trusted by leaders and teams across sectors

Give them the space for brave, bold conversations to express their thoughts and emotions with vulnerability and authenticity—where unspoken dynamics can be seen, understood, named, and transformed.

YOUR TEAM IS AS STRONG AS THE CONVERSATIONS THEY ARE WILLING TO HAVE.

"Teams with high psychological safety are 36% more likely to deliver innovative solutions and show 30% higher employee engagement." (Google Project Aristotle; McKinsey)

Using our hands-on Humanity Tiles® System, teams effortlessly explore profound realizations of how they believe dynamics among them occur, identifying roots, causes, and consequences. Listening to emotions and honest reactions unlocks new ideas, solutions, and perspectives, transforming hidden patterns into collective insights.

EMOTIONS AREN'T NOISE, THEY ARE DATA.

“52% of employees hide emotions weekly — but when leaders acknowledge them, people are 3× happier and more creative.”
(Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence)

Using our HumanityPacts® system, your team’s reflections are shaped into TeamPacts® — simple, visual tools that turn insights into action. Instead of abstract ideas, your team leaves with living agreements they’ve co-created. Rooted in behavioral science, TeamPacts® help replace unhelpful habits with healthier patterns, making trust, collaboration, and growth part of everyday work.

THE BEST TEAM CULTURE ISN'T IMPOSED, IT IS CO-CREATED BY THE TEAM LIVING IN IT.

“When employees feel a sense of ownership in shaping cultural change, transformations are 79% more likely to succeed.”
(McKinsey research on transformation)

All TeamPacts®, shaped by your team, become a lightweight anchor for mutual accountability. Their simple, visual design makes them easy to share and bring into daily work — whether in meetings, one-on-ones, communication channels, or key decision moments. As more Pacts are created, they form your Team’s Culture Mosaic: a living, evolving record of how your culture grows through intentional, meaningful behavioral shifts.

CULTURE IS SHAPED BY EVERY INTERACTION AND BY HAVING THE COURAGE TO ADDRESS SITUATIONS.

“71% of leaders say focusing on team-level microcultures is the most effective way to influence overall culture. Organizations that do so are 1.6× more likely to achieve desired outcomes.”
(Deloitte, Global Human Capital Trends)

A CULTURE DESIGN SYSTEM FOR TEAMS

Humanity Tiles® is a transformative method and hands-on tool for shaping authentic team culture from the inside out. Rather than prescribing what culture “should” be, it empowers teams to define it themselves—based on their real experiences of how they work, feel, and connect every day.

Through guided workshops, teams explore difficult-to-name emotions, frictions, and hidden dynamics, mapping them visually into patterns that reveal deeper truths about their collaboration. Instead of skirting discomfort, they face it directly. Instead of vague values, your insights are used to create Team Pacts—lightweight, visual agreements designed for daily use.

Each workshop turns the invisible into the visible. After every session, team reflections are distilled into shared pacts — living signals that guide how people show up in moments that matter: during meetings, messages, feedback loops, strategy days, or difficult conversations. The result is a living culture that grows one interaction at a time — created, sustained, and evolved by the people who live it every day.

A NEW TYPE OF TEAM EXPERIENCE.

Humanity Tiles® is the only tangible culture toolkit designed to uncover the unspoken, placing behavioral clarity at the heart of team development. Grounded in psychological safety, behavioral change, and organizational psychology, its tactile, hands-on approach creates openness, creativity, and shared humanity.
Forget decks, icebreakers, or abstract value statements. Workshops are simple: a table, a set of evocative word tiles, and a safe space that invites honesty. With physical tiles in hand, participants:

Externalize feelings and observations without needing “perfect words”

Use colors, shapes, and metaphors to build shared meaning
Experience being truly seen and heard in fresh, authentic ways
Co-create visual structures that mirror their real team dynamics

This embodied process activates both reflection and play, blending logic with intuition. Each chosen tile becomes a powerful clue, revealing a vivid and evolving story of the team’s reality and growth.

What are TEAMPACTs®

After each session, your team doesn’t just get a static report—you receive a set of TeamPacts® in the form of digital tiles.

Our TeamPacts® are crafted through the lenses of behavioral change and team dynamics, giving you clear insight into what shifts to make and when. Instead of relying on vague intentions, you gain living, practical reminders that guide real-time conversations and decisions. Each TeamPact® can be activated in the moment—turning everyday work into opportunities for alignment and growth.

Teams start with suggested TeamPacts®, vote on which one feels most relevant, then use, test, and refine them over time—updating and enhancing as culture evolves.

Each TeamPact® is stored as a picture and can be pulled up on a phone, pinned in a channel, or named out loud—in 1:1s, project updates, hybrid meetings, strategy days, town halls, or daily stand-ups. Wherever your team gathers, a TeamPact® can be activated to keep alignment, trust, and momentum alive.

The more workshops you run, the more TeamPact® your team creates—building an evolving library of agreements to test, refine, and activate.

BRING HUMANITY
TO THE TABLE

When group dynamics shift, individuals experience more trust, inclusion, and focus. This strengthens psychological safety and reduces the silent costs of stress, disengagement, or siloed work. At the organizational level, these shifts unlock stronger collaboration, healthier leadership, and cultures that can adapt to change with resilience.

Culture change starts with emotional and behavioral clarity—not slogans. Most teams don’t fail because of strategy; they falter when unspoken emotions and subtle frictions remain unresolved. Humanity Tiles® creates a safe, structured way for teams to surface what’s hidden, make sense of it together, and translate it into practical shifts they can act on every day.

Why it works:

Clarity: Makes invisible emotions and dynamics visible as shared insight.
Perspective taking: Helps individuals step back from personal frustration and see the bigger system.
Psychological Distance: Creates a safe, blame-free way to name tensions and discomfort.
Emotional Intelligence: Sparks reflection and builds awareness across the team.
Actionability: Every Team Pact turns insight into a practical, testable behavior.

Over time, teams develop:

A common vocabulary to talk about what’s hard—with confidence and care.
Mutual accountability through co-created, visual agreements.
A reflective, adaptive culture built on small, testable experiments.
A growing Culture Mosaic—a living archive of the team’s evolution.

UNOPS

I liked how the power of one word could help stimulate a thought process and a way of communicating, which was difficult to tap into previously. I liked how it was a safe space; the power was put into the 'words' we chose."
It had the right level of being personal without feeling like team therapy with colleagues.

PWN Copenhagen / DFDS

"It showed me how my leadership identity is core attached to my believes. An extraordinary session for getting information that it's not as easy to see."

UNICEF

"The workshop let us focus on issues not normally discussed and considered, both personal and relational, within the team. I liked how vulnerable and honest everyone was."

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF)

"Great activities for team development and growth from the people perspective. The tiles were very helpful, and it was actually great to have those 'feelings' physically in hands, to build from them, and to share/steal them."

World Health Organization (WHO)

"Realising how your individual goals and aspirations actually gel into the bigger picture of everyone’s vision."

I enjoyed putting words to tangible outcomes and, above all, sharing that with the team in such a relaxed and playful manner. Thank you so much!

Frequently asked questions

Humanity Tiles® goes beyond workshops or conventional training—it helps teams make the invisible visible.

In each workshop, teams use tactile tools and guided reflection to surface what’s often left unsaid—emotions, tensions, and everyday dynamics that quietly shape collaboration.

Moreover, what sets it apart is that the insights don’t just stay in the room. After each session, we distill them into Team Pacts: simple, visual agreements your team can carry forward and activate in daily work. This way, the experience doesn’t end at reflection—it gives you concrete ways to practice new behaviors together, one interaction at a time.

During a Humanity Tiles® session, your team steps into an experience unlike a typical meeting or training. We combine tactile tools with guided reflection and strategic, evidence-based exercises tailored to your team’s goals and needs. Participants use tiles to externalize thoughts and emotions, arrange them into patterns, and explore what emerges through dialogue and storytelling. This process surfaces dynamics, tensions, and strengths in a way that feels both playful and deeply clarifying.

Everything gathered in the session—from reflections to shared insights—becomes the foundation for your team’s first batch of Team Pacts. These are simple, visual agreements that you can edit, enhance, test, and use in real moments of work—ensuring the workshop translates into practical next steps.

We begin with a short discovery call to understand your team’s context, goals, and current dynamics. From there, we help you define the best-fit offer — from an introductory Starter Session to a fully deployed Culture Mosaic® program spanning multiple teams and leaders. Together, we select the most relevant themes — such as Psychological Safety, Purpose & Vision, or Collaboration — and adapt the depth and format to your organization’s needs. For unique challenges or priorities, we design fully customized experiences, ensuring every session feels relevant, actionable, and anchored in your reality.
