Ready to dive into something new?
It is time to rethink organisations and companies.
It is time to redefine economic success and to use the power of the economy to do good.
It is time to recognise that everything is connected.
It is time to rediscover who we are and what we do.
It is time to utilise our true potential. It is time.
TheDive is an idea. TheDive is a business. TheDive is part of a community.
Welcome to a new economic sector in which companies help solve today’s problems, not exacerbate them.
TheDive assists you in becoming part of this world, one where economic success and social responsibility go hand in hand.
How do we do it? By combining holistic tools with entrepreneurial thinking. By utilizing cutting-edge methods in powerful places. By looking at the big picture. By being passionate about what is essential. By acting with conviction.
We are part of global movement of like-minded peers, who believe we can achieve more – today.
#WelcometotheUnknownNew
Tomorrow is already yesterday.
In our rapidly changing world many of the ideas of the past decades no longer work. Be it in economics, politics or society, the old formulas require more and more effort, yet are less and less effective. The world needs something new.
We believe that companies can survive in the future only if they start their transformation today. Only if they acknowledge the tested ideas of the past while preparing themselves for those of tomorrow.
We don’t know our final destination but we know the direction we’re headed. Join us on our journey as we explore the new – together.

TheDive Practice
How we operate. And what‘s important to us.
Next Generation Business. Today.
TheDive helps you embark on the next chapter of your development. Taking such a step demands courage. The courage to enter unknown territory, to question yourself and give up old habits. TheDive gives you the nudge you need.
What do you stand to gain? New perspectives. Forward-looking business models. An organization with more vitality. And the satisfaction of knowing that you’re making the world a better place. It’s not easy and it won’t happen overnight. But every step in the right direction is a step worth taking.

Escape the office.
Change begins within. The is true for our organisational principles as well as for our surroundings. The Base1 in Berlin and the Base7 in Esslingen are spaces where we lead by example – the perfect setting to learn about new ways of working firsthand.
We also rent out our premises for outside workshops and events. Contact us so we can schedule an appointment for you in a creative and distinctive environment.

We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.
At TheDive we don’t just talk. We put theory into practice. We believe that things can be done differently, so we do things differently. We eschew hierarchy, not methodology. Our intentions are clear but we allow space for life to unfold. A handful of founders make up our core but TheDive doesn’t end there. We see our clients as partners in a collective system of learning. We strive towards economic success, but not at the cost of people and the planet. We are a new kind of organisation.
#WhatIf
Fortunately we are not alone.
TheDive belongs to a growing, closely connected network of peers that share a single vision. These individuals, organisations and initiatives are all part of the same transformation. Our peers are our inspiration. We thank them for being there.
#PartoftheMovement
People, Planet, Profit. And Poetry.
The true, the good and .... yes, the beautiful. We make space for projects that are near and dear to us, for poetry at work. We believe that business and aesthetics are not a contradiction in terms, that the qualitative is no less important than the quantitative, that others will enjoy our ideas as much as we do.
To find out more about our beliefs, see the audiobook Reinventing Organizations, the magazine Neue Narrative. Our Blog regularly reports on our newest ideas.
