ABOUT ADAPTED™
The person behind AdaptED™
Dr. Terrence Harewood
Founder, AdaptED™ | Executive Coach, Facilitator & Organizational Consultant
Dr. Terrence Harewood is a leadership and intercultural development practitioner, executive coach, facilitator and organizational consultant. His work brings together reflection, perspective and intentional action to help leaders, teams and organizations navigate complexity with greater awareness.
AdaptED™ grew from a simple observation: meaningful development cannot be separated from the context in which people lead, work, decide and change.
“Development begins when we make space to see differently, understand more deeply, and act with intention.”
THE WORK
Development for the complexity of real work.
AdaptED™ brings together leadership development, intercultural insight, facilitation, executive coaching and organizational consulting to help people navigate complexity with greater awareness and intention.
The aim is not simply to develop better leaders, it is to create the conditions for better thinking, better conversations and more adaptive action.
THE PERSPECTIVE
Leadership rarely happens in simple conditions.
People lead across differences in culture, experience, expectations, power and perspective. Organizations change. Situations evolve. And what worked yesterday may not work tomorrow.
AdaptED™ begins there. We create space to examine what is happening, understand what may be underneath it, and consider what a more useful response might look like.
THE PRACTITIONER
A practice shaped by experience, reflection and difference.
LEADERSHIP
Experience working with leaders navigating complexity, change and competing demands.
INTERCULTURAL PRACTICE
An approach shaped by working across differences in culture, perspective and experience.
DEVELOPMENT
A commitment to thoughtful reflection, meaningful dialogue and intentional action.
WHY I CREATED ADAPTED™
Between insight and action.
I became increasingly interested in what happens between insight and action.
People can understand themselves more deeply, recognize different perspectives and leave a conversation with new awareness. But meaningful development happens when that awareness changes how we lead, relate, decide and respond.
AdaptED™ was created to stay with that work.
Different contexts require different ways of thinking.
AdaptED™ creates the space to explore what your context is asking of you, and what might become possible from there.
