Making you the Sprinthero

We help leaders place bets on the future.

ExO transformation process design, delivery, facilitation, coaching and support — since 2016.

Sprinthero is a sprint studio for innovators and business leaders. We package the best practices of design, foresight, research and venture building into focused 1–4 week sprints with real outputs.

We've run 100+ sprints with Fortune 500 companies, scale-ups and government — across energy, finance, retail, mobility, health and AI.

The goal is always the same: turn uncertainty into conviction, and conviction into action.

Sprinthero is a service offered by Stakeholder Agency since 2016.

A certified ExO Trainer, Coach and Advisor, Lars has spent two decades at the intersection of strategy, learning and exponential technology — helping teams imagine futures, pressure-test ideas, and build the muscles to keep doing it long after the engagement ends.

A 4th Industrial Revolution skillset
