About the ACE it! Method

An innovative approach to coaching and leading people used by some of the world's most successful companies.

The ACE it! Method, developed by Autoris, builds upon the principles of Design Thinking to foster innovation in coaching, leadership, and talent development. This comprehensive approach comprises three key components: a process ("ACE"), insights ("i"), and tools ("t"). The ACE it! Method has been adopted by many of the world’s leading companies and business schools, receiving enthusiastic feedback from participants globally. For instance, Prof. Ehrhardt teaches the ACE it! Method as part of IESE Business School Leadership Coaching Program (LCP) curriculum.

Design Thinking is a widely-used method for ongoing innovation, employed by top companies to enhance their products, processes, and business models. The ACE it! Method extends these principles specifically to talent development, leadership, and team-building. This unique application enables teams and organizations to tap into their full innovation and learning potential.

Learning, along with the ability to help others learn, has become a critical skill in the 21st century. This also includes the capacity to unlearn and relearn various knowledge, skills, habits, or attitudes. Before encouraging individuals to embrace new knowledge or habits, it is essential to enable them to do so effectively. The ACE it! Method provides this foundation, facilitating continuous innovation and growth within organizations.

By leveraging the ACE it! Method, leaders can drive creativity, innovation, and improvement in their teams and organizations. This method empowers individuals to rethink their habits, embrace change, and hone their strengths, ultimately leading to enhanced performance and success.
