Planning change and transformation
We help you plan your change journey – from changes to achieve strategy, to broader culture transformations.
Big changes, like culture transformations, are difficult to plan and manage. Organisations are dynamic and operate in unstable environments. We can’t predict how change efforts will unfold across the organisation, or how they will hold up over time.
Traditional planning tends to assume a single plan will be relevant across the entire organisation and will stay relevant as the system changes. These assumptions rarely hold true. External factors and internal dynamics often shift, making initial plans obsolete.
We help you develop a shared picture of the change journey, which also provides teams with clarity on their particular objectives. Our process helps you draw on diverse perspectives within your organisation. We help you identify what really needs to happen in different parts of the organisation.
Because our process focuses on outcomes first - before actions are planned - the roadmap we build is flexible enough to cope with changing circumstances. This also helps you identify relevant and clear indicators of progress, so you can measure the impact of your efforts.
In a nutshell – this means despite the complex and messy pathways of change, your progress is as cost and resource efficient as it can be, while getting deeper and more sustainable results.
Outcomes we help you achieve
a roadmap flexible enough to cope with changing circumstances
clear indicators of progress and ways to measure them
a shared understanding of the change journey and what needs to happen along the way among stakeholders

Outcomes mapping workshops
Immersive and engaging, these workshops help you create powerful maps to understand how change or strategy will unfold.
We bring people from different parts of the organisation together, to share and build new understandings of what they need from each other.
Our process helps people make immediate action plans linked clearly to long term objectives.
Advice and partnering
We support you to plan in ways that can cope with complex change.
We help you develop skills and use processes to make sense of the organisational context, to find leverage points, and to pinpoint what holds back or accelerates change.
This can involve teaching methods, sharing system tools, or partnering with you to keep planning alive, coherent, relevant and adaptive to context.
