About us
A person who can change themselves, can change the world.
That’s why we believe in creating a society where everyone takes action to enhance themselves and the world around them.
Our Mission
When crucial goals suddenly seem unattainable or are in doubt, ONEDAY empowers people, teams and organisations to forge ahead:
within a single tailored day, backdropped by inspiring settings, and supported by one of our qualified guides.
For lasting personal, professional, and strategic paths forward.
Our Values
Identifying and pursuing paths – ONEDAY
brave
We have the courage to venture down our own path and encourage others to hold themselves accountable; to be able to do something instead of having to; to be able to say “no” as well as “yes.”
human
We empower people to take self-fulfilling action over the long term.
We accept people as they are.
We are honest and always sympathetic sparring partners.
impactful
We believe in the power of positive change. We are experts in transforming mindsets, leading to visible and tangible results.
ONEDAY style
Impact is at the heart of our actions. To create impact, we blend science-backed and proven organizational development methods with techniques from positive psychology and systematic, solutions-focused coaching, and we use the power of nature as a judgment-free space. A pioneering spirit also flows through our work: We support people as they teeter on the edge of their comfort zones – and step outside them.
Instead of optimization and change, which requires constant training, we strive to trigger a lasting transformation in our clients. Our aim is to become superfluous: This lets our clients become the owners of their solutions and generate their desired results for the rest of their lives, with greater clarity, better thinking, and more effective leadership.
In addition to our holistic take on people and systems, feedback is an essential part of our personal development. We’re always reviewing our quality standards: during and at the end of the day, and in follow-up meetings.
Our Story
We are confident that transformation in the outside world can only come through inner growth. Since 2010, we have thus been doing pioneering work to bring about positive transformation in individuals, teams, and companies – with exceptional results to show for it.
Developing the ONEDAY methodology has made us the first coaching brand to integrate nature, exercise, and time into a holistic and transformative experience.
