Why "Eigen"?
For those with a background in mathematics or engineering, “Eigen” might ring a bell. The term, derived from the German word for “own” or “inherent,” is used in linear algebra to describe eigenvalues and eigenvectors—fundamental components that capture the essence of a system.
In consulting, we see “Eigen” as a metaphor for the distinctive values, challenges, and strengths that define each individual and organization—their own "eigenvalues."
The term resonates with us because it reflects our guiding principle: embracing our inherent qualities to uncover insights that drive deep transformation and sustainable growth.
Why “Strategies”?
Transformation isn’t a one-time event—it’s an ongoing journey of exploration, experimentation, and adaptation. Every business and founder faces a pivotal moment of realization: sustainable growth is achieved through the inner work that clarifies and refines our unique values and vision.
