"I like the co-design approach very much. You bring an incredible depth of expertise, but the co-design really makes me and my people feel like we have a say into this and it’s not something that’s been dropped on us – it’s OUR programme, it’s built for us, it’s built in a way that works for us.”
Rachel Masters

I’ve become more intentional in how I delegate, trusting my team to take ownership while staying aligned. Most importantly, I’ve become more courageous in navigating ambiguity, challenging assumptions, and leaning into difficult conversations when needed.”

Frequently asked questions.
What does Adeption do?
Adeption is a global leadership development provider that helps organizations grow adaptive, future-ready leaders at scale. We blend facilitated workshops and leadership coaching with our AI-enabled digital platform and signature action-learning methodology – bringing development into daily work to elevate growth and performance.
How is Adeption different from traditional leadership training providers in New Zealand?
Traditional providers often treat leadership development as an event and focus on delivering content – with low levels of transfer. Adeption flips this dynamic by bringing development into daily work. Our experiences equip leaders with a practical framework and toolkit to unpack their real challenges, explore new approaches, and experiment to learn. This process improves performance and supports long-term development.

We work with a wide range of organizations globally – across many industries and geographies – providing co-design and delivery of leadership development experiences. We love working with organizations committed to developing their people to create and succeed in the future of work.
