How We Build
The Alliance Incubator
Intentionally Innovative | Inherently Transformational
The Alliance Incubator takes the momentum from the 90-Day Innovation Intensive and transforms it into actionable outcomes by crafting the framework for strategic relationships to flourish and innovation to thrive.
Building on the Intensive's insights, the Alliance Incubator activates untapped potential within your business. This phase fosters dynamic, complementary partnerships that catalyze innovation and fuel sustained growth.
Our proven methodology ensures these alliances achieve exceptional results—enhancing performance, broadening market reach, increasing profitability, and solidifying your competitive position in a rapidly evolving landscape. By harnessing the collective strengths cultivated during the Intensive, the Incubator empowers your business to not only adapt to change but also lead it.

Step Three
How We Thrive
Alliance Conflict Mitigation
Protecting Integrity | Strengthening Trust
Relationships are inherently complex. While corporations prioritize predictable outcomes, measurable metrics, and clear deliverables, the human element—key to driving nascent generative innovation—introduces unpredictable dynamics.
In this phase, Emergent establishes a robust framework that enhances the self-governance of strategic alliances and joint ventures. Building on the groundwork laid in the Intensive and Incubator phases, our methodology enables decentralized systems to self-correct and adapt to increasing complexity with greater decision fidelity.
This approach safeguards the sustainability and growth of your alliances, mitigating risks and overcoming challenges that could otherwise hinder innovation and progress.
Governance
We utilize a four-stage risk mitigation model that provides the structure for both good governance and prudent risk management.
This approach provides the structure to monitors performance while actively anticipating and mitigating the hazards that can derail success.
Caucusing
We implement a high-frequency shuttle caucusing protocol to minimize the latency period of addressing missteps, which can often remain obscured in real-time due to blind spots and the fog of corporate noise.
Mediation
We use mediation as both a proactive tool to deflect emerging conflicts, and a tool to contain and redirect any conflicts that can potentially harm the integrity of the venture.
