Innovative organisational development & learning solutions

Learning initiatives and capability building Consultant, growing talent and building teams

Let’s talk about how we can grow the impact of your capability initiatives

How do I work?

  • Let’s talk about…

    What do you want to achieve? Where are you now? What will success look like for you?

    We will analyse, reflect, strategise and form an inital scope

  • Let’s design an innovative sustainable solution together, and talk about how we will know we have achieved the goals. We might want to try some things first, or take an agile approach.

    We will confirm the approach and actions, agree on the outcomes and deliverables, create a development plan & get started.

  • Now the real mahi starts - engage participants, manage change, implement the solutions and integrate for sustainability.


    I can support or project manage the development, and/or take a specific role (e.g. facilitator). As we progress we’ll collect evidence of progress and impact. We’ll make sure we get things done.

    I can contribute through coaching, leadership, facilitation, project management, managing change, evaluation skills
