Overview

Engage people through change

People change and transformation is often complex, messy and hard to get right. Stress, discomfort and avoidance are all natural responses to large scale changes. We’re here to accelerate your change through aligned and engaged teams and we have the experience and methodologies to provide it.

How it works

Transform your business through people change

  • 1. Shift company culture

    To shift your company’s culture, it’s essential to first understand the culture that exists already, how it’s impacting on performance, and how this might need to change. We help to align your ‘culture as articulated’ and ‘culture as experienced’.

    Culture capture

    A research study and bespoke report provides insight into your organisation’s culture and detailed recommendations for shifting into the future.

    Nudge technology

    Our nudge technology brings about cultural behaviour change by tapping into the unconscious environmental cues in our day-to-day lives.

    Leading in the shadows

    Develop your leaders’ ability to lead in the informal, shadow side of your business, think culturally, act ‘politically’ and build relationships.

  • 2. Align EX and CX

    Many businesses treat their employee experience (EX) and customer experience (CX) as distinct, failing to recognise the impact that one has on the other. Through a three-stage process we co-create and align brilliant EX and CX to transform your business performance.

    Shape the CX and brand that appeals to your customers, whilst co-creating an EX and culture that appeals to your employees. Create a change acceleration plan.

    Enable and embed

    Implement your plan through our range of blended tools. Our Brand Alignment Monitor measures how you’re delivering on your employee and customer promises.

  • 3. Sustain performance and resilience

    Change can take many forms and different types of change bring different considerations. Whatever the nature of your transformation, we partner with stakeholders across your business to sustain performance, engagement and resilience throughout the process.

    Digital transformation

    It’s easy to underestimate how much behaviour change is required during this type of transformation. Working with our trusted partners, we create the performance shift you need.

    Mergers and Acquisitions

    The influence of culture is a priority when managing M&As. We help you to understand each organisation’s articulated, lived and deep culture.

    Restructure

    During a restructure, what matters most to people is fairness. From designing a communications strategy to upskilling your managers, we can support you throughout the process.
