WHAT WE DO

We at Stucki support companies to transform on three levels; individual, team and organization. We do this by customizing seminars and programs to equip and empower your leaders and teams to solve their organizational challenges. We use a unique method of experiential learning to create a safe place to test and try out new behaviours and skills. Based on our extended knowledge grown since 1984 our STUCKI Method® achieves real impact, stronger ownership, collaboration and performance.

 

“Empowering people is our passion.”

OUR SERVICES

Leadership Expertise

At Stucki we believe that leadership can be learned and developed. By taking a human-centric approach we encourage leaders to explore new dimensions of leadership and self-discovery.

With a focus on transformative leadership, we design action-oriented activities to develop leadership skills in a dynamic and interactive setting. The hands-on nature of these simulations promotes impactful learning, critical thinking and skill enhancement. Our seminars are customized for all leadership levels: from junior managers right up to senior executive leaders, always with the company objectives in mind.

Team Development

No two teams are the same, but we can equip them with the right tools and mindsets to unlock their potential. We empower teams to take an active role in the overall success of the organization. Through our action-oriented activities individuals learn how to foster a more collaborative and self-sufficient team environment. By facilitating a process with aspects such as orientation, trust, aligned objectives, commitment and implementation we see teams moving quickly and successfully to high-performance teams.

Organisational Transformation

Change is a deeply human process, therefore we at Stucki maintain our human-centric approach to increase the impact of the change, integrate all levels in the change process, create real ownership of the new strategy and cascade the change down from the C-suite level to the factory floor.

Alternatively, we can offer our support for self-organized teams and focus on developing skills around autonomy, decision-making and harnessing collective wisdom to promote a more agile and productive work environment.

Depending on your transformation strategy, we define clear objectives and facilitate the discussion process but don’t deliver strategy content. We help to break silo mentality and competition within the company. Through our action-oriented activities we achieve maximum alignment and collaboration between individuals and teams. Organisational change requires a cultural transformation and mindset change. We also offer ambassador trainings in resilience, sustainability and diversity.

About US

In 1984, as Robert Stucki was guiding high alpine tours in the Swiss Alps, he identified a gap between the practical requirements expected from leaders and theoretical approaches of management schools.

 

With his combined experience as a mountain guide and leader in an engineering company, he was a pioneer in developing action-oriented learning activities to close this gap. From this moment on Stucki Leadership and Team Development AG was founded and the concept of experiential learning was at the heart of everything the company did.

 

Driven by passion, dedication and innovation the company developed the tried and tested method: the Stucki Method®.

Leadership and team building fascinated me early on. I concluded my studies of economics with a dissertation on the subject of “Subjective leadership theories – the significance of good leadership for Swiss leaders”. In the following 25 years I gained considerable professional, leadership and life experience as a manager in various industries and positions, ultimately as the CEO of a medium-sized enterprise. I make this experience available to others today as a coach and consultant.

THE STUCKI METHOD® – Our Approach

In the past 40 years, we have steadily developed a method that makes us unique today – the Stucki Method®. Built on a tried and tested approach of action-oriented learning we focus on four phases: Activity, Observation, Reflection and Transfer.

This gives our seminars a clear structure and guarantees an immersive, memorable and impactful learning that is relatable and transferable to your business challenges. Putting your learnings into action plans with real commitment and ownership from all involved is the key to our successful seminars.

Action / Simulation

We ensure a memorable experience pushing you to your limits – but never beyond.

Observation

The essential is often invisible to the eye; it needs to be observed through experience and action

Reflection

Action without reflection is just fun. With reflection it yields real, deep, substantive learning. that you can apply to business challenges

Transfer

We leverage tried and tested theoretical models to anchor learnings into actionable behaviours impacting everyday life and challenges.We use as much theory as necessary and as little as possible, with a clear focus on implementation.

«Professional partner with a pragmatic and impactful approach.»

Stucki Leadership & Team Development has been supporting us for many years in the development of our managers and in the cultural transformation of our company. Stucki is a very professional partner with a pragmatic and impactful approach. The trainers are experts in their field and were able to quickly create a bond of trust and openness with our employees. I would highly recommend Stucki to any company wishing to work on leadership, team development or cultural transformation.

«impressed by the flexibility and specific knowledge of the trainers.»

One of the challenges facing SKAN is the management of the extreme growth. Stucki very effectively supported and assisted the management in the development of the team and the “strategy 2025″. The Stucki trainers quickly grasped our challenges, the cultural environment and the individuals involved in the process. They helped and enabled the managing executives to focus and develop into a “high performing team”. In designing the team development process and the strategy workshops, I was impressed by the flexibility and specific knowledge of the trainers. When processes came to a standstill, they adapted the program to our needs in a quick an agile way. I found the trainers empathetic, grounded and professional. The series of workshops always took place in a constructive, respectful and trusting atmosphere. We will gladly continue our cooperation with Stucki, including support in the area of leadership development Training.

Thomas Huber
Skan AG, CEO

«I see Stucki’s method as a groundbreaking way to focus people’s energy.»

Stucki provided us with excellent and competent support both in merging teams and in the context of a major change project. The new teams were immediately capable of action and harmonized well. Stucki’s action-oriented approach met with a very good response and a high level of acceptance from all superiors and employees across the hierarchy. Results were quickly visible. The training and the subsequent visible implementation of measures were the basis for stability, focus, security and optimism in the supported teams. I see Stucki’s method as a groundbreaking way to focus people’s energy and motivation and to show them new ways. Stucki convinces through tasks that are specifically geared to the situation and through professional trainers with the gift for clear feedback.

«Stucki is by far one of the most comprehensive outdoor leadership providers.»

In my various Talent & Leadership roles I have had the pleasure to work with outdoor experiential leadership providers around the world.
Stucki is by far one of the most comprehensive outdoor leadership providers. The team quickly listened to our needs, aligned to, and incorporated, our goals and values into our event design and activities. This brought to life, in an outdoor setting, universal leadership challenges which participants could grapple and learn about, in a safe and fun environment. Through thoughtfully facilitated debriefs the participants are able to readily apply their learnings to their day to day corporate leadership challenges.
Thank you Stucki for bringing leadership theory to life.

«Stucki stands out.»

Among the many providers of leadership training, team building and organizational development, Stucki stands out.

Stucki has thus brought Ricola’s management team quite a bit further forward.

«The Stucki team did an excellent job.»

The Stucki team did an excellent job of designing and moderating our management workshop in a way that was tailored to our needs and our management culture. The healthy mix of theory and practice was very effective for our managers. Several months after the seminar, a follow-up was conducted. We were pleased to see that the managers were consciously implementing what they had learned and their personal transfer goals in their day-to-day management.

«It was another great collaboration for which I am very grateful.»

I’ve known Stucki for 20 years, and we recently launched our ABB cultural leadership development program, ” Come to the Edge,” together. The outdoor activities were innovative, yet true metaphors for our corporate values. They will be forever remembered by our top 200 leaders and serve as a compass for the leadership behaviors expected of all of us at ABB. The authentic and human approach to learning, as well as the vast experience of the Stucki coaches, enabled me to fully trust them in the delivery of the program. It was another great collaboration for which I am very grateful.

«We became much more efficient as a team»

20 years ago, I completed my first team seminar with Robert Stucki with a group of branch managers. Thanks to many challenging and practical exercises, we became much more efficient as a team back then. Over the years, I have done seminars with a wide variety of groups with Robert Stucki’s team and also worked on challenging topics at management level. Personally, I have benefited a lot both as a participant and in the preparation and discussion of the seminars and can highly recommend the seminars.

«They were able to propose innovative solutions»

I have had the pleasure of associating with Stucki over the past year and a half, when we partnered with them to create and deliver a world class, outbound experiential cultural transformation program aimed at our top 200 leaders.
Impactful program design starts with asking powerful questions. Stucki’s team consisting of Robert and Bernard, did exactly that, and this helped us clarify and articulate the true objectives for the program. Their contribution to design and development was invaluable too. They were able to propose innovative solutions that were founded in Adult Learning methodology and Mind-Brain Research. Their pedagogical approach was a breath of fresh air from the commoditized offerings one sees in Learning these days. They followed it up with superlative delivery, facilitation, and infrastructure management.
I look forward to continuing our association with them going forward, and have no reservations in recommending their services.
