About R Scott Spann Over the past 25 years, I've beeen solving seemingly “impossible” problems for Business, Society, & the Earth. My work is inspired by my experience with business leaders – trying to do the right thing in complex, competitive situations; my work with Social leaders in NGO's and government – seeking to satisfy diverse stakeholders in ways that benefit the whole; my career as a Rolfer and trauma psychotherapist – witnessing people recover from the injuries that life and humanity too often deal us; my time in nature as a cowboy, hunter, and sailor; and my training as an internationally competitive athlete. Born and raised in South Texas working on ranches and fishing boats, my experiences range from consulting with Arthur Andersen & Co. to launching the Texas office of The Nature Conservancy; Managing Vice President of RPC, a small national consulting firm, to leading the Rolf Institute; Vice President for ARC, International, a global leadership development & cultural change group, to Stone Yamashita Partners, a global branding & strategy firm; from CEO for VC firms to working with former guerrilla and indigenous leaders in Guatemala. And I continue to learn by working with Business, Social, & Earth-centered leaders today. I’ve applied my unique strategic methodologies successfully in businesses like Apple, HPE, and Humana; with social issues like Climate Change, Affordable Housing, and Social Justice with foundations and NGOs; and on complex projects for the U.S. Navy and the White House.

What people are saying
Comments from just a few of the hundreds of Leaders I've worked with.
“We truly thought – and I actually said – it was impossible for anyone to add that much value… He did a truly amazing job of helping us collectively understand how our internal networks and external supply chain actually worked as a whole system. We used our common insight to leverage critical control points to achieve our own seemingly impossible goal.”
Vice President HP Global Notebook Supply Chain Taipei, Taiwan
“Scott Spann has developed a unique and powerful systemic approach for enabling key decision makers and stakeholders to understand perceived problems in a larger context. It is one that weaves human relationships in ways that mirror the conceptual relationships in the system — but with an end in mind. Out of those interwoven relationships (both human and conceptual) emerge the leveraged responses we need to successfully deal with the complex, wicked problems confronting us today. “ – Fritjof Capra Author of The Tao of Physics and The Hidden Connections, coauthor of The Systems View of Life

“Scott Spann often accomplishes the impossible. He has a rare talent for helping multi-stakeholder groups see a unified picture of something that is beyond any single person’s point of view. He works his ‘magic’ through a deep understanding of complexity, systems thinking, and human discovery. He brings the right tools to the table so that people can not only ‘see’ together, they can also think and act together in powerful new ways. As anyone in the Systems Thinking world will attest, this is no small feat and is a necessary step in solving the intractable problems we face today.“

Get on the path to solving "impossible", wickedly complex problems for Business, Society, & the Earth – today – with Emergent Impact™
70-90% of strategic change efforts fail (HBR & Forbes, 2022) as they’re not aligned with Reality. In these courses, you will learn to align Leaders, Teams, Organizations, & whole Ecosystems (Business, Social, or Earth focused) with Reality – the Reality of being more Fully Human acting in Complex Systems.
