STRENGTHS-BASED STRATEGIC PLANNING

Brand and corporate strategy based on actual science, and backed by academic research.

We help proactive leaders and teams who want to enact meaningful and impactful change within their organizations; change for good.

We do this by leveraging our years of experience in corporate brand strategy, corporate identity and culture, and organization development (OD) and change. We've worked with some of the most cited academic leaders and pioneers in the field to co-develop a process for intentional, positive, and transformational strategic change.

Using the most progressive methods and approaches in organizational science, our team helps future-focused, progressive and proactive leaders develop data-informed, research-focused brand strategies that ignite possibilities.

TRANSFORMATIONAL SERVICES

Effective, people-focused change, stakeholder-powered strategic planning.

Surprisingly, management consultants at some of the world's biggest consultancies still practice using outdated business management principles that might have worked in the 70s and 80s; but not today. Companies have evolved. Employees and customers alike are more educated, more informed, and more aware of the influence they wield. It's no surprise that most change initiatives fail as top-down management approaches increasingly lead to more resistance, more turnover, less trust, less adoption; and ultimately, less action.

Our approach to change works because the people responsible for enacting change are at the heart of creating it.
