Incandescent

Advises leaders, conducts research, launches ventures

Overview

Incandescent helps organizations create, build, and operate more effectively by combining research, advisory services, and venture development. The company conducts studies to inform leaders, advises CEOs of large institutions as well as founders of early- and growth-stage ventures, and develops its own ventures, acting as thought partners in dialogue with senior executives. Its product is essentially a hands-on support system: they publish insights, provide strategic guidance, and build ventures or initiatives for clients and partners. This multi-faceted approach differentiates Incandescent from peers by tying rigorous research to practical advice and in-house ventures, allowing them to address questions around how human enterprises can be organized and led. The goal is to advance better ways of organizing, leading, and running organizations through deep collaboration with leaders and a focus on human-centric enterprise.
