Founded in July 2002, we have over two decades of experience providing learning and development programs and services for leading organizations.

Our speciality is in unleashing the power of curiosity.

We believe that developing curiosity in individuals is the key to creating stronger businesses with healthy and connected workplace cultures.

DIVERSITY, EQUITY, ACCESSIBILITY, AND INCLUSION

We support human flourishing.

We hold a core value to practice stewardship, and believe that organizations thrive when the people within them are cared for, honoured and acknowledged. We believe that staying curious and always remembering humility allows us to be open to learning new things, and makes it okay to fail and learn from those failures.

Our values tell us to assume positive intent, regenerate what we take, meet others where they are and support individual growth, and we acknowledge and are sensitive to structural oppression or privilege within our organization as well as with the clients we serve. Every day, we deepen our thinking and continue working harder to serve the needs of others.

Curiosity Brings Us Together

From academia to tech, our team brings diverse expertise to Box of Crayons. We push each other to think differently and deeply. And, of course, always to stay curious just a little bit longer.
