About Us
Our Approach
Our Organisational Development service works in partnership with clients to build/strenghten the purpose, direction, effectiveness and people practices of their organisation/community. This is achieved by:
- Listening and learning
- Building a deep understanding of the client/group/organisation, their aspirations and/or challenges.
- Working collaboratively to identify, explore and address critical needs and opportunities
- Applying a solutions focus to all that we do
- Drawing on well tested contemporary understanding, and extensive experience, to build effective, flexible and innovative solutions
- Providing relevant on-going support, as the foundation for sustainable change
- Adding value by drawing on the expertise of specialist associates to support delivery of high quality solutions, where required
This approach is replicated in the Design Area where the focus is on understanding and meeting client aspirations and needs.
