Adeption New Zealand

Leadership development at scale for New Zealand organisations
Adeption New Zealand has provided leadership development with impact for over 15 years, helping individuals and organisations grow leadership capabilities, address challenges and realise potential. Formerly known as JumpShift Development, our team partners with leaders of all levels across corporate, public and social sectors.

Leadership development for New Zealand organisations.

Adeption leadership development programmes are designed to address the focus areas that matter most to your people – whether navigating complex challenges, leading culture change, or developing agile, innovative teams prepared for the future of work.

Taking development from the classroom, into the flow of work

Our approach helps New Zealand leaders build a habit of learning by focusing on their immediate context, inspiring fresh thinking and helping them to take action with new ideas on the job.

Leveraging technology and AI to reach more people

The Adeption platform is a leaders’ coach on-demand. Digital workouts are personalised and engaging with tailored tools, inspiration and insights from others who faced similar challenges.

With the power of people and peer learning

New Zealand based facilitators and coaches create supportive and inclusive environments, build organisational connections and support leaders when they need it the most.

“The ecosystem is key. This includes the internal coaches, the Adeption platform, the facilitators, myself as a ‘guardian’ of the programme and the senior sponsors in the business, who love learning and are passionate about being a part of pulling people up the ladder as well as leading it down. We need all these pieces of the puzzle.”

“Every single manager of participants on our pilot said that the confidence and capability of their people has grown due to the experience”.

New Zealand programmes are built with your organisation’s focus in mind. Through partnering with clients across multiple industries we’ve found companies commonly target their leadership development programmes to address these challenges, and opportunities:
Developing leaders equipped to navigate change and uncertainty.

Building future ready, resilient individuals and teams.

Improving team and organisational cohesiveness by developing a strong culture.

Fostering workplaces that respect and incorporate Māori values and practices.

Increasing performance and productivity within complex organisational structures.

Shifting mindset and behaviours to support business growth and innovation.

“The programme adds value at all levels, it gives the team a common language and consistent approach to partnership, creating mutually beneficial business relationships.” (Building a Coaching Culture)

“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.”
