About CoCreate

Complex challenges. Shared possibilities.

CoCreate is an independent research and consulting studio working at the intersection of people, organisations and society. We combine scientific knowledge, systemic understanding and creative practice to address complex challenges through collaboration, evidence and context.

About CoCreate →
WHO WE ARE

Different perspectives. Shared possibilities.

At CoCreate, we believe that meaningful change emerges when different perspectives come together.

We bring together psychological science, systemic thinking and creative practice to explore complex organisational and social challenges.

Through research, dialogue and collaboration, we work with people and organisations to develop new understandings, engage with possibilities and create meaningful change.

OUR APPROACH

Understand. Engage. Create.

We bring together psychological science, systemic thinking and creative practice to understand complex challenges, engage different perspectives and create possibilities for meaningful change.

Understand

We explore the context, relationships and patterns shaping each challenge, drawing on research, systemic inquiry and the experiences of those involved.

Engage

We bring people, perspectives and forms of knowledge into dialogue, creating opportunities for participation, reflection and collective learning.

Create

We work collaboratively to develop context-sensitive responses, combining evidence, experimentation and creative practice to support meaningful and sustainable change.

EXPERIENCE & EXPERTISE

Our work draws on extensive experience across universities, public institutions, European research and innovation programmes, civil society and the private sector. Combining scientific expertise with an interdisciplinary network of collaborators, CoCreate connects research with practice and brings different forms of knowledge into dialogue.

What we do

Consulting

From insight to meaningful action.

We work with leaders, teams and organisations to navigate complexity, strengthen collaboration and create healthier, more adaptive ways of working. Drawing on organisational psychology and systemic thinking, we explore how people interact, how patterns emerge and how meaningful change can be developed together.

Organisational Development & Leadership

People, relationships and cultures in change.

Leadership Coaching & Development

We support leaders in reflecting on their roles, navigating uncertainty and developing greater awareness of their impact on others. Drawing on organisational psychology, systemic coaching and evidence-based leadership development, our approach combines reflective inquiry, 360-degree feedback, stakeholder mapping, critical incident analysis and the Ladder of Inference. Through individual and group coaching, circular questioning and structured reflection, we help leaders recognise relational patterns, examine competing perspectives and develop more adaptive approaches to decision-making, communication and change.

Team Development & Effectiveness

We help teams understand how they work together, identify patterns that enable or constrain collaboration and develop their collective capacity for learning and performance. Our interventions combine team diagnostics, psychological safety assessments, sociometric and relational mapping, experiential exercises, Reciprocity Ring, After Action Reviews and structured team reflexivity. Methods such as World Café, action learning and facilitated dialogue create opportunities to explore interdependencies, negotiate differences and strengthen trust, coordination and shared responsibility.

Psychological Safety & Inclusion

We work with organisations to create environments in which people can express concerns, challenge assumptions, acknowledge mistakes and contribute different perspectives. Drawing on psychological safety research, inclusive leadership and systemic approaches to group dynamics, we use structured dialogue, critical incident reflection, appreciative inquiry, perspective-taking exercises and participatory assessment. Attention is given to power relations, informal norms, voice and silence, and the everyday practices through which inclusion, belonging and collective learning are either supported or constrained.

Systems & Organisational Culture

We approach organisational culture as an evolving system of relationships, shared meanings, routines and recurring patterns of interaction. Our work combines organisational diagnosis, systems mapping, causal loop diagrams, stakeholder analysis, force-field analysis and participatory sensemaking. Frameworks such as Kotter's change model, ADKAR and the McKinsey 7S framework can support the examination of organisational transitions, while systemic questioning and collaborative workshops help participants identify leverage points and develop context-sensitive pathways for change.

Group Facilitation & Supervision

We design and facilitate reflective spaces in which teams and professional groups can examine complex situations, explore multiple perspectives and learn from their experience. Drawing on systemic supervision, action learning and group process theory, our approach incorporates reflecting teams, circular questioning, the Seven-Eyed Model, Social GRACES, critical incident analysis and structured peer consultation. These methods support professional reflexivity, awareness of relational and contextual influences, and more thoughtful collective action.

In Practice

Our work brings together psychological science, systemic thinking and participatory methods in organisational settings.

At NCSR Demokritos, leadership and team-development workshops with research team leaders have explored psychological safety, difficult conversations, collaboration and organisational change through facilitated dialogue, experiential exercises, observer roles, group reflection and World Café processes.

Across organisational development and learning activities, we adapt methods such as systemic mapping, action learning and reflective group processes to the needs of each team and institutional context.

Systemic Evaluation

Understanding change. Generating evidence. Enabling collective learning.

Evaluation Design & Theory of Change

We design evaluation frameworks that recognise the complexity of social and organisational change. Combining Theory of Change, logic models, stakeholder mapping and systems thinking, we work with organisations and project partners to clarify intended outcomes, examine underlying assumptions and identify meaningful indicators. Participatory workshops and systems mapping help connect strategic objectives with the experiences of those involved.

Developmental & Formative Evaluation

We approach evaluation as an ongoing process of inquiry, reflection and adaptation rather than a final assessment. Drawing on developmental evaluation, utilisation-focused evaluation, reflective practice and action learning, we establish feedback mechanisms that help teams respond to emerging challenges. Methods include learning diaries, reflective interviews, facilitated sensemaking sessions and structured feedback loops.

Process & Implementation Evaluation

We examine how interventions unfold in practice, paying attention to participation, relationships, implementation conditions and contextual influences. Mixed-method approaches combine surveys, semi-structured interviews, focus groups, observation and implementation monitoring. Process mapping, stakeholder analysis and qualitative thematic analysis help identify barriers, enabling conditions and opportunities for improvement.

Outcomes, Impact & Systemic Change

We investigate what changes, for whom, under which conditions and through which mechanisms. Depending on the evaluation purpose and available evidence, our methodological repertoire includes contribution analysis, outcome harvesting, Most Significant Change, comparative case studies, social network analysis and quantitative outcome assessment. Particular attention is given to unintended outcomes, relational changes and the interaction between individual, organisational and wider systemic processes.

Participatory Evaluation & Collective Learning

We involve stakeholders in interpreting evidence, questioning assumptions and developing shared understanding. Through participatory evaluation workshops, collaborative sensemaking, story-based inquiry, stakeholder dialogue and Learning Assemblies, evaluation becomes a space for collective reflection. Findings can be translated into visual system maps, learning reports and practical tools that support organisational learning and future decision-making.

In Practice

Curing the Limbo illustrates the value of a systemic and participatory approach to evaluating complex social interventions. Developed in Athens to support the social inclusion of refugees, the project brought together interconnected dimensions of housing, employment, education and community participation.

Its evaluation context highlights the importance of examining not only individual outcomes, but also the relationships, institutional conditions and collaborative processes that shape pathways towards inclusion. Combining multiple stakeholder perspectives, qualitative and quantitative evidence, and reflective learning can help illuminate how change unfolds across individuals, communities and organisations.

Arts-Based & Participatory Interventions

Creative practice as a catalyst for dialogue, participation and change.

Arts-Based Inquiry & Creative Exploration

We use artistic and creative practices to explore experiences, relationships and social challenges that may be difficult to articulate through conventional forms of dialogue. Drawing on arts-based research, visual inquiry, creative storytelling, collage, image elicitation and object-based reflection, we create opportunities for participants to express different perspectives, question assumptions and generate new understandings. Artistic processes become methods of inquiry, connecting individual experience with collective meaning-making.

Participatory Design & Co-Creation

We design participatory processes that bring together people with different experiences, forms of knowledge and institutional perspectives. Our approach combines co-design workshops, stakeholder mapping, participatory systems mapping, design thinking, World Café and collaborative prototyping. These methods support the identification of shared challenges, the exploration of alternatives and the development of context-sensitive responses. Particular attention is given to inclusion, power relations and the conditions that enable meaningful participation.

Creative Facilitation & Group Processes

We facilitate groups through creative and experiential methods that encourage dialogue, reflection and collaboration. Techniques such as visual mapping, metaphor-based exercises, role exploration, storytelling, reflective observation and structured group dialogue help participants examine relational patterns and explore alternative ways of working together. Drawing on systemic facilitation and experiential learning, we attend to both the creative process and the dynamics emerging within the group.

Art, Community & Social Engagement

We develop participatory approaches that connect artistic practice with community engagement and social challenges. Methods may include participatory photography, photovoice, community storytelling, cultural mapping, walking interviews and collaborative artistic activities. These processes can support the exploration of place, identity, belonging and collective experience, while creating opportunities for dialogue between communities, cultural organisations and public institutions.

Reflection, Learning & Transformation

Creative interventions can open spaces for reflection, experimentation and the reconsideration of established perspectives. We combine reflective journals, facilitated debriefing, critical incident reflection, collective sensemaking and participatory evaluation to explore what participants experience and learn. Rather than treating artistic outcomes as the sole measure of success, we attend to the relationships, insights and possibilities for action generated through the creative process.

In Practice

ROCK – Regeneration and Optimisation of Cultural Heritage in Creative and Knowledge Cities illustrates how cultural heritage and creative participation can contribute to inclusive urban transformation.

Bringing together cities, cultural institutions, researchers and local communities, the project explored participatory approaches to cultural heritage-led regeneration. Its activities highlighted the value of stakeholder engagement, collaborative mapping, co-creation and interdisciplinary dialogue in connecting cultural resources with social needs and urban development.

ROCK provides a relevant example of how arts-based and participatory approaches can create spaces for collective learning, strengthen connections between communities and institutions, and support more inclusive processes of change.

Projects & Experience

Selected projects and collaborations.

The projects presented here offer an indicative selection of our work and experience across research, organisational development, social innovation, cultural practice and European cooperation. They reflect different forms of involvement, from project partnerships and research leadership to evaluation, facilitation and interdisciplinary collaboration.

Rather than an exhaustive portfolio, this selection illustrates the diversity of contexts in which psychological science, systemic thinking and participatory approaches can contribute to meaningful change.

Learning

Learning through experience, dialogue and reflection.

We design and facilitate evidence-based learning experiences that connect psychological science, systemic thinking and creative practice with real-world organisational and societal challenges.

Our approach combines scientific knowledge with experiential learning, participatory methods and structured reflection. Rather than delivering standardised training programmes, we work with organisations to understand their context, identify learning needs and develop interventions grounded in research and adapted to the people involved.

We see learning not simply as the acquisition of knowledge, but as a process through which individuals, teams and communities develop new understandings, strengthen relationships and expand their capacity for collective action.

University Teaching & Academic Learning

Our academic teaching brings organisational psychology and systemic thinking into dialogue with diverse disciplines, educational settings and professional practices. Across university and postgraduate programmes, we connect scientific research with the realities of learning, collaboration, leadership and professional development.

Our teaching experience spans organisational psychology and educational communities at the University of Thessaly, organisational psychology for engineering students at the Athens University of Economics and Business (AUEB), coaching at the University of West Attica, and the management of cultural organisations at the Hellenic Open University. It also includes Business Psychology at BCA and Organisational Psychology at AEGEAN COLLEGE.

Across these contexts, we explore how psychological and organisational knowledge can inform the ways people learn, work together and navigate complex professional environments. Our approach combines scientific rigour with dialogue, experiential learning and critical reflection, connecting academic knowledge with practice.

Organisational Learning & Professional Development

We support organisations and teams in developing their capacity to learn, collaborate and respond to complex challenges. Drawing on organisational psychology, systemic thinking and research-informed practice, we work with the relationships, patterns of interaction and organisational conditions that shape collective performance and change.

Our approach combines contextual understanding, experiential learning, facilitated dialogue and collective reflection. We help teams reconsider established ways of working, strengthen collaboration, address difficult conversations and develop new possibilities for action.

Our work with research team leaders at NCSR Demokritos illustrates this approach, bringing together psychological safety, collaboration, conflict management and organisational change through a series of facilitated workshops.

Learning for NGOs & Social Initiatives

We collaborate with NGOs and community organisations to support learning, participation and collective responses to complex social challenges. Drawing on organisational psychology, systemic thinking and participatory approaches, we design learning processes that connect professional knowledge with lived experience and community needs.

Our experience includes collaborations with Kyklos, KYKLart and Symplexis, exploring how learning, dialogue and participatory practices can support social inclusion, community engagement and organisational development.

We see learning as a collective process through which people and organisations reflect on their experience, develop new perspectives and strengthen their capacity for meaningful social action.

Open Learning & Collaborative Programmes

We develop and contribute to collaborative learning initiatives that bring together psychological knowledge, education, culture and community engagement. Through interdisciplinary partnerships, we create opportunities for dialogue, shared reflection and experiential learning, connecting individual experiences with wider social and organisational contexts.

Our experience includes collaborations with the Onassis Foundation / Onassis Stegi, the Onassis Schools and the Psychosocial Support Service, as well as initiatives with Future Library focused on libraries and learning communities.

These collaborations reflect our interest in learning environments that encourage participation, strengthen relationships and create connections between people, institutions and communities. Our approach combines systemic thinking, experiential methods and creative practice to support learning, inclusion and collective exploration across different settings.
