Create more impact

I work with organisations and teams in the private, third and public sector.

Strategy:
From bird’s eye view to pragmatic action plan

The daily business and busy-ness can mean that you lose sight of the big picture.

Do you make time to strategise? To make sure you are still doing what is most impactful for your clients?

I help you to pause and take a bird’s eye view. To look outwards to identify any threats or overlooked opportunities. To discover any blind spots.

I design creative, efficient ways to find out what your clients, staff and stakeholders think.

I work with you to make sense of what this all means for your organisation. And to help you decide on priorities and design a pragmatic action plan. 

You will have the focus to be more impactful.

A great client experience is so much more than customer service. It is about being steeped in client-centric design.

Do you truly understand what really matters to your clients? Do you know how they experience you? Do you feel their pain?

I help you to get an accurate picture of your client experience – through the eyes of your clients. To identify what really matters to them.

I guide you to develop an ambitious vision that serves your clients and you.

Together we consider your client experience in the round: the value you bring, your operations, your processes.

I help you to decide on priority actions and how to measure progress.

You will realise your vision of success.

Client experience:
Walk in your clients’ shoes

Stakeholder engagement:
See through your stakeholders’ eyes

You cannot create impact without engaging with your stakeholders.

Do you know what is alive for your stakeholders? Their needs? Their concerns? Do they open up to you?

As an outside facilitator I get powerful insights. I can probe the depths.

I combine engagement methods to meet your objectives: surveys, focus groups, one-to-one deep dive conversations, co-creation sessions, etc.

I work closely with Amanda Heenan, founder of Arc of Inclusion, an expert in equality, diversity and inclusion. We facilitate safe and inclusive discussions so people can share their views openly and honestly.

Different agendas, group dynamics, clashing personalities, unclear agreements. All these can cause friction.

I help you to disentangle work-related conflict. Whatever the situation: conflict with peers, team members, superiors, direct reports, partners, suppliers or between the executive team and the Board.

I help you decide what you really want from the relationship and the best course of action. To work through the friction to a better working relationship.

I help you to create more impact through productive relationships.

• I can coach and support you to work through the conflict — I am a trained coach.
• I can facilitate an informal discussion with all involved — I am an experienced facilitator.
• I can facilitate a formal mediation — I am an accredited mediator.
