We are a Think Tanks factory. This is the 'what'. Our offsprings include the Forum Hospital do Futuro, Madeira Health Regions Summit, the Health Data Forum, Digital Collab 2020 among others. Because the world needs better communities and organizations with improved readiness to cooperate with each other united by a new public purpose to overcome the most challenging times. This is our 'Why'. How? By humanizing connections and collaborations with the power of Digital Facilitation. Because the latest management research shows that collaborative decision-making reduces stress in the workplace and builds more agile and responsive businesses or public service organizations. In our latest spin-off the Digital Collaboration Academy, you can improve your skills and your tool chest as a facilitative manager or as a trainer or teacher to make teamwork flourish. Our community of GroupMap Certified Facilitators is ready to assist you in different geographical locations, visit our contact page for more information.
