Why do our clients continue to work with us?
Pragmatism & flexibility
We are framework-agnostic and believe impactful change starts not from processes and structures, but rather from the organization's strategy, culture, and goals. Focusing on those (rather than frameworks) makes change grounded to the reality of teams and value delivery. For innovation initiatives, this pragmatism means changes are customized to the specific context and goals of the organization, growing the needed innovation capabilities to support the business strategy.
Change management expertise
We believe the biggest reason change initiatives fail is not because of lack of leadership support, resistance to change, or lack of budget. We believe change fails mostly because of lack of good change management. Our approach combines the Kotter model with our experience in defining leading and lagging indicators that enable our clients to track the impact the change is having on the business. For innovation initiatives, this means understanding strategy and goals, connecting changes and experiments to those goals, and make the necessary adjustments along the way to ensure successful, sustainable change.
Broad industry experience
We have extensive experience in a broad range of vertical industries, such as Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG), Finance & Insurance, Telco, Gaming, and Manufacturing. We are also pioneers in taking agility beyond product / software teams and into the domain of business or operational teams.
