Our Work
David Rooke
Founder of Harthill and Originator of LDF
"In order to deal with complexity, we need to be generating internally layers of meaning, layers of internal complexity that respond to external complexity. The more challenging question of what might constrain me rather than what enables me, is not usually where we want to focus attention - but it is a potent force.
The interesting thing about human beings is that they have this immense capacity for development."
OUR WORK
At the heart of Harthill is a community of people passionate about and experienced in developing people, intuitively, compassionately and vertically intelligently. This means that our work is infused with diverse learning and experience across many disciplines, as well as being firmly grounded in the science of Adult Vertical Development.
Harthill's unique model, the LDF, is globally established and is at the heart of our work with leaders, providing the framework within which we can work on developing their capacities for working with complexity.
Harvard Professor Robert Kegan and others assert and evidence how Vertical Development triggers a quantum increase in mental complexity, which in turn transforms a leader's ability to lead in these complex and unpredictable times. There are many resources on this site to explore this further. Do explore!
