In 2008, Ford Motor Company reorganised, using what is now known as the “10 strategic operations areas.” It was part…

We continue to change and find ways to offer products and services that are modern and address issues that are “top of mind” with CEOs, CHROs, and CIOs today.

We have not “ditched” our capabilities, but rather “reengineered” them for what’s relevant in the New Ways of Working today.

We offer packaged Solutions that address specific issues and which use our Products and Services as necessary. We offer our traditional Services that are brought up-to-date and which use our Products as necessary. And, we offer a small range of Products that are available on a stand-alone basis for clients.

Our Solutions are:

“Digital-by-Default” – a process using Lean Change Mangement principles, to help define the Digital DNA of your organisation and establish the quick wins that help to build capacity in your organisation.

“Work-from-Anywhere” – it’s not just about policy. The issue is just to complex to think that it can be addressed by policy alone. We use Lean Change Management to identify the different “moving parts”, and put smaller interventions in place that build up to a “Work-from-Anywhere” culture.

“Goal-oriented Performance Enablement” – most Performance Management systems still in use today are “backward looking”. What if you could look foward and have a system that helps ensure performance? This is what OKRs are doing for many organisations today, and can do for you as well.

“Psychological Safety in the Workplace” – this is the ultimate leader responsibility. If the leader cannot model the qualities of trust, openness, safety, empowerment, respect, value, innovation, they cannot expect their people to demonstrate those values. It starts with leadership.

“Agile OD and HR” – HR and people management are facing their biggest transformation ever. With this challenge comes the unique opportunity to actively reshape the face and impact of HR and people management and create Future Fit organisations designed around flow of value. It’s not an easy journey, but the question is – can you afford not to.
