Achieving sustained success requires approaches and processes that work within the complex system of today’s world. While many of us are versed in traditional grand strategy planning and execution, fostering the adaptability and resilience of our teams and organizations in the current landscape necessitate a shift in focus and the adoption of diverse tactics and strategies.

We use pragmatic and action-oriented tools to help clients in making sense of their current context and situation, particularly before embarking on grand strategic planning exercises, or while navigating strategic changes and organizational transformations. We frequently draw from Cynefin Company™ tools like Estuarine Mapping and SenseMaker, alongside our own processes. We incorporate the following in our processes:
- Attending to the Present: Our processes probe the dispositions, attitudes, and perspectives of stakeholders, examining the interactions and relationships among actors, culture, skill, experience, workflow, and processes at play (beyond conventional Likert-based scales and surveys)
- Harnessing Collective Intelligence: We leverage the collective intelligence of stakeholders at various organizational levels, drawing from a multiplicity of perspectives to enrich decision-making.
- Using Narratives: By employing narrative techniques, we better understand context and allow participants to interpret their own stories, thereby reducing bias.
- Identifying Successful Projects: Our methods help to shape and design projects and a playbook of actions with a higher probability of success.
- Iterative Movement: We encourage you to move iteratively, remaining vigilant to emergent behaviors and responding swiftly to either encourage and amplify or mitigate them.
