Services

Our work enables business, government and for-purpose organisations to manage for better impact.

We deliver tailored solutions to support you to design your intended impact, develop ways to measure what happens, clearly communicate your impact and improve by implementing what has been learnt.

Our services fall into four key areas.

Our approach

Our approach is collaborative and underpinned by:

  • deep immersion and research
  • tailored stakeholder engagement strategies
  • building capability to embed impact.

Our principles

Our work is driven by the following principles:

  • Simple but not simplistic – we deliver clarity over complexity.
  • Stakeholder voice – we seek out and listen to diverse stakeholder perspectives on change and the value created.
  • Outcomes are a system – we explore the inter-relationships between the key outcomes.
  • Ripple effect – we analyse the cause and effect of activities to understand how impact flows beyond primary beneficiaries.
  • No data without stories, no stories without data – we consider data and stories together to enrich how impact is understood and communicated.
  • Modality matters – we know that ‘how’ change is achieved is what makes each client unique.
  • Embedding insight – we are committed to increasing impact by using evidence to implement new or revised approaches.
