Foursight101

Some teams click. Most don't know why.

Led by David Chislett, this session uses the Foursight thinking-styles model to show you why your team argues about process and gives you a shared language to stop having the same argument twice.

Before you book

Watch the
intro.

Two minutes on what the session actually covers and who it's for.

The problem

Less friction.
More flow.

You've probably heard of Foursight. Fewer people have ever quite got it and that gap is exactly where teams keep clashing.

01

Different styles, same room

Clarifiers, ideators, developers and implementers all approach a problem differently and most teams never learn to tell which is which.

02

Friction reads as personality

What looks like someone being difficult is often just a different, equally valid way of working through the same problem.

03

No shared language for it

Without a model to point to, teams keep re-running the same argument about process instead of naming it and solving it once.

If you've heard of Foursight but never quite "got it," this is the session that makes it click.

The core idea

A shared language for how your team solves problems.

Foursight is a research-based model that reveals how people naturally approach each step of the problem-solving process. Understanding it helps you collaborate better, communicate smarter and solve problems faster.

How it works

Three parts.
One of them
is the session.

The 90 minutes are the middle. What happens either side is what makes them stick.

Before

Nothing to prepare

No pre-work worksheet. Watch the two-minute intro above if you like, then just show up ready to think about your own team.

Optional, before the session
During

The live session

David Chislett walks you through the Foursight model live: the four styles, what your own profile shows, why it matters and how to debunk the misconceptions people carry about it.

Certificate and what's next

Take your certificate, then bring what you've learned back to your team, or go further with a private session for the whole group.

What you take away

Four things,
not forty.

This is an introduction and it's honest about that. Ninety minutes buys you a working model for your team's problem-solving styles, which is more than most courses manage in a day.

Your own
profile

Know your default preference: clarifying, ideating, developing or implementing and what it means in practice.

101

Read your
team

Spot which style a colleague leans on and recognise that it isn't a flaw, just a different route to the same answer.

101

Less friction,
more flow

Turn "why won't they just..." into "of course they think that way," in the middle of a real meeting.

101

A shared
vocabulary

Give your team words for a difference that used to just feel like conflict.

Who it's for

People who…

  • Lead a team that keeps hitting the same process arguments
  • Have heard of Foursight but never quite got what it means
  • Want a practical model for how their team actually solves problems
  • Are curious why some collaborations click and others don't

What people notice

Nobody notices
you took a course.

They notice that you:

  • Name what's happening in a stuck conversation, instead of getting stuck in it
  • Bring in the right style at the right stage of a problem
  • Read friction as difference, not difficulty
  • Give the team a common language for how it works
