Reducing uncertainty and driving up value

People-centred Change Management

We support the delivery of change that has people at its heart, value as its goal and business agility as its legacy.

Our Change Management approach

Customer expectations continue to increase, and the pace of change is accelerating as businesses become more data-driven and digitally enabled.  There is a need to adopt changes at pace and adapt operations to leverage the full potential from new solutions.  We understand the challenges faced by our clients and we are very clear that digital transformation is about more than cutting-edge technology.  Our change management experts will help you build the capacity, capability & confidence to reduce uncertainty and drive up value by delivering change with your people.

Expertise that goes beyond advisory

Change Management Capabilities

We work alongside teams from initial idea to realisation of benefits and all the tough stages in between.

Diagnosing the problem(s)

We help clients identify their change challenges; whether these be capacity, capability or organisational readiness. Understanding the problem you are trying to fix is key to delivering value.

Getting started

Change is like a diet. Getting started is always tough. We help clients to develop a compelling case for change, build a clear change roadmap and mobilise a change team that can operate at pace.

Delivering at pace

We support our clients to deliver at pace. This may be developing a Change Playbook to ensure consistency in delivery or introducing Agile to ensure teams can collaborate and deliver well or providing experts to contribute to a blended team.

Planning and delivery of effective engagement and communication

You can never communicate enough with team members as they are the value creators in your business. Communicating well (and often) to engage team members is key to successful delivery of change.

Supporting adoption of change

New solutions (technological, process or regulatory) need to be adopted by team members. Unsurprisingly, just telling people they need to adopt a new solution doesn’t work! We work with clients to build capability, establish new ways of working and support new behaviours.

Wrapping the business around change

Adoption is key but is not enough. The business needs to adapt to the change. This can involve designing new operating models, new team structures & roles and incentivising performance. We ensure that businesses adapt to truly drive out value.

And we support other stuff too

Maybe you want to test new solutions quickly or make your business more neurodivergent friendly or reduce costs or..?

Change can take many forms therefore it is impossible to list every possible instance we can help with.

If you are unsure whether you need help (or whether you want help from us), please chat with us.

We only support clients where we know we can knock it out the park. You can therefore be sure that we will be very upfront with you.

Creating business value demands a shift in mindset

If value creation was easy, investment by Private Equity (PE) businesses would look very different from how it looks today. Rather than being a high value, insight-led industry, it would be commoditised and transactional. But, value creation isn’t easy.
