Beyond the Stage
This section is for organizations already familiar with the work, or exploring additional deployment contexts.
Most organizations first encounter Gentry in conference rooms or on stage.
Over time, some discover the work is equally effective in other environments where attention is scarce and conversations are costly:
Trade Show
Qualified Lead Capture: A trade show mobilization designed to stop traffic, spark meaningful conversations, and capture qualified leads through live, interactive demonstrations at the booth.
Networking
Cocktail Hour: A mobile, informal series of brief judgment and perception demonstrations designed to spark conversation, lower social friction, and create shared moments of insight during receptions, arrivals, and networking periods.
Analysis
Facilitated One-On-One Session: A structured session designed for leadership offsites, strategy meetings, or post-event contexts. The session examines how judgment, communication, and decision-making operate at the individual level.
