What is OneSmartWorld?
OneSmartWorld is a Performance Improvement Company
We help leaders, teams and people everywhere learn how to work smarter together. Our top rated research based 4D-i® Toolkit and easy to adopt system for problem solving, collaboration and leadership development. Our clients use our integrated solution with thinking skills and smarter meetings solutions to save time and money - developing leaders, building high performance teams and reducing time wasted in meetings.
What do we mean by smarter together? As artificial intelligence gets smarter, we believe that human intelligence is the most vital resource an enterprise has. Team members contribute not only what they know but also how they think. Core to our work is the understanding that people think differently and that cognitive diversity can be a team’s greatest asset. Being smarter together is about knowing how to map and to harness the remarkable diversity of that brainpower to collaborate, think through and solve hard problems quickly and effectively. That helps teams perform at their best. It helps everyone get the best ROI – the return on intelligence needed to succeed. That’s smart.
Our Big Vision

Today the world faces new challenges never before seen. New skills and tools are needed to help leaders, teams and individuals figure out how to deal with change and work through adversity. We need to find better ways to make most of the collective intelligence we have to be successful in meeting the challenges we face.

The Four Dimensions Inventory: 4D-i®
The 4D-i® is the #1 rated, scientific research-based thinking preferences assessment designed to improve personal performance and professional effectiveness. The 4D-i® comes with an online toolkit for building self understanding, increasing adaptability and improving performance.
First developed in 2000-2001 by Bob Wiele and his team, the 4D-i® is based on four dimensions of high performance thinking – creativity, understanding, decision-making and personal spirit - and different cognitive and emotional mindsets and 21 strategies to master in order to use one’s full potential and become more adaptable, valued and effective.
The 4D-i® is designed to empower people and teams to communicate and collaborate, using a simple common language based on a traffic light – one of the world’s best known and accepted symbols for guiding behaviour. Teams use the language to shift their approach in each stage of a smart track problems solving process to do the same type of thinking at the same time.
“The 4D-i is a quantum leap in reaching organizational potential and human relationship building. It shows you how to work smarter, not harder.”
- Pat Boon-Anderson
