OUR WORK
A visible record of how this work became what it is today
This page is not only a showcase of case studies. It is also a record of past programs, earlier jobs, experiments, partial successes, and the long path from fragmented soft-skills work toward a more coherent method.
Read it as an evolution: how the work was tested, translated, revised, and gradually shaped into the architecture behind Adaptimist now.
Entry Into The Problem
Geoff joined the lab with a practical question: how do you actually teach the emotional, social, and motivational skills that make people effective with others?
Exploratory Programming
Early workshops and teaching materials were built from a fragmented literature and whatever usable public material could be found, adapted, and tested.
Framework Arrival
The emergence of the MIPI gave the work a more coherent structure, allowing soft-skills development to be organized as a system rather than a pile of disconnected ideas.
Applied Translation
Programs, workshops, and public materials increasingly translated competency research into specific audiences, contexts, and behavioural problems.
Coach-Facing Interpretation
Score meaning, debriefing, and practical interpretation came to the foreground as the work shifted from delivery alone toward coach-facing use.
Calibration And Fit
It became clear that development cannot be delivered generically. Programming had to be matched more carefully to score direction, presentation, and person-context.
Curated Architecture
The work matured into literature mapping, intervention alignment, and the governed corpus architecture that now sits behind the broader system.
