×Welcome to Part 5 of the KAI Foundation 5 podcast series, our five part introduction to building better teams and great leaders with the Kirton Adaption Innovation Inventory. KAI is the world's foremost measure for problem solving style. It's used widely to create cohesive and productive teams and effective leaders. It's been in use for over 40 years and is supported by a large body of academic research from around the world. In these five podcasts we want to provide you with an understanding of why KAI is so effective, so powerful, and indeed life-changing for so many teams and team leaders.

Hosted by Dave Harries, with Anne E Collier (professional certified coach and CEO of Arudia) and Dr Iwan Jenkins (Toronto-based KAI certified coach and ‘practitioner of the practical.’)…
