About Us

We believe in the virtue of exposure and personal experience. We share a fate of having a balanced experience of line management as well as consultancy. We have been out there. Stood our ground. Taken the heat. And we have honed our skills through working closely with our clients as their trusted process facilitators, advisers, coaches and mentors.

Our Methodology
We base our work on a number of different proven methodologies and approaches – in addition to our own performance principles. At the heart of our thinking lies the concept of appreciative inquiry in a social constructionist setting. Appreciation is to recognise the best in people and the world around us – to perceive things that give life, vitality, and excellence to human systems – to affirm past and present strengths, successes, assets and potentials – to increase value. Social constructionism is where society is a human product – society is actively and creatively produced by human beings – the world is made or invented, rather merely given or taken for granted – social worlds are interpretive nets woven by individuals and groups. We believe in the powers of interpersonal communication and dialogue; how people talk has implications for who we become and what we can do as individuals. 
 
All of the above comes into play through a systemic perspective. Everything is systemic – everything interacts with (affects and is affected by) the things around it – systemic insights into complex situations and problems. Do not deal with the parts of a situation in isolation; deal with them in concert – deal with both the elements of a situation and how they interact with one another.

Our History
