Contemporary change management, built for an agile world
A new change movement is emerging: ChAgile®
PEOPLE CHANGE CHALLENGES
Digital transformation and challenging market conditions dictate that organisations need to operate differently. New behaviours, mindsets and ways of working are required to unlock greater productivity, innovation and speed – all while protecting the employee experience.
It is widely acknowledged that around 70% of change projects fail and this statistic is not budging. We help organisations improve their change ROI by better aligning leadership, designing employee experience-led change approaches, and ultimately helping establish trust, cutting through change fatigue and truly engaging people towards a vision.
OUR CAPABILITIES
Organisations find it hard to transform especially when resorting to traditional approaches or off-the-shelf methodologies for delivering people change. We will work with you to facilitate the right blend of innovation and pragmatism to ensure you invest in interventions that deliver the most value. Our team brings empathy and rapid experimentation techniques to partner with you across your people change agenda to ensure the change sticks.
Change management / ChAgile®
Design and deploy change programmes that connect with and support your people to align their collective energy towards your purpose - including for new operating models, Agile change, M&A people change and user adoption. We adapt to the organisational context and apply either more traditional approaches or ChAgile®, a more agile, people-centric and experimental way of working.
Strategic change capability
Enhance your organisational change capability to drive greater returns from your transformation portfolio. Using proven approaches, develop your capability blueprint and roadmap, and create the tools, skills and confidence to achieve it.
Culture change
A healthy culture can unify your teams, make a positive impression on customers and help drive sustainable competitiveness. From diagnostic to blueprint development and creating people-centred interventions, enable your teams to move to a more productive state.
Change accelerator events
Participate in our collaborative events to generate insight, alignment and pace. Accelerator events deliver the tangible and emotional outcomes you need to drive transformation in your business – from building a vision and roadmap in a day, to programme mobilisation, to operating model design.
Leadership development and coaching
Real transformation starts with your people. Through coaching, leadership assessment and development programmes, we equip individuals and teams to better manage themselves, their people and ultimately organisational change.
OUR CREDENTIALS
We are privileged to be working with some of the UK’s largest and most innovative organisations on their most complex change programmes. View our case studies.
