Read on to discover our approach to working with you









A transdisciplinary perspective



We bring an open mind to your situation because we have multiple disciplines we can leverage to approach it.

No BS “proprietary” methodology.

Because when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. And we know there's more to your situation than nails.

We use systems thinking to understand the situation as a whole.

We use design thinking to explore the problem space.

We use ethnography techniques to draw-out people's contributions.

We use organisation design to shape new structures.

We use what's needed to challenge and reframe the problem, and find new and better solutions.







Work with the expert (you)



We keep our ears open to what you and your team share about the context you evolve in.

We know we don't know it all.

Because if you think you know all the answers, you're just listening to confirm what you think and prove you're a genius consultant.

Each problem is unique to your context, and the context expert is you.

We work with you, ask lots of questions and listen intentfully to pick up on what we do not know.

This questioning can be painful at times but can lead you to a-has! It also allows us to connect dots and develop more than a pre-baked answer.





Aiming for pragmatic solutions



The value we bring is not in what we leave you with: it's in what happens next.

No pie in the sky advice.

As advisors and consultants, it can be easy to forget the very real pressures of day-to-day operations, and recommend things that are just not feasible.

Working with you to understand your challenges, we also adapt solutions to the means available, as best we can.

The path forward we provide may not be the easy one, but always aims to be valuable and achievable.
