Sessions

WORKSHOPS THAT...WORK

All of our working sessions share a common element:
Unique, advisor-led, time-bound experiences custom-tailored to fit your company, culture and challenge.

We integrate the most powerful business frameworks into proprietary visual canvases (now digital for remote sessions) supported by a master facilitator. This allows us to leverage your knowledge and expertise while simultaneously drawing out your best thinking. Inevitably, our method produces winning strategies and solutions in a fraction of the time and cost of more traditional consulting approaches.
And, buy-in is built-in!

Primary Workshops

Strategy Formulation

Strategy is about making winning choices. We use the Playing to Win strategic choice-making framework — learned under the mentorship of creator Roger Martin — to help you develop unique answers to the two key choices at the heart of any winning strategy: where to play and how to win. We then help you test your assumptions, further increasing your odds of success.

OKR Alignment

Getting a winning strategy to permeate and drive the entire organization is no easy feat. Successful deployment rests on the ability to achieve cross-company alignment. We believe the best mechanism for doing that is the Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) framework, made popular by Kleiner Perkins chairman John Doerr, and adopted by the likes of Google and Amazon.

Customer Experience

In today’s hyper-competitive world, business success is increasingly dependent on your ability to deliver a unique and compelling customer experience. We use the compelling Jobs To Be Done framework to guide the mapping of your customers’ journey through all of their interactions with your company, in turn enabling you to choreograph unique experiences and build enduring relationships.

Rapid Experimentation

Profitable growth requires a continuously flowing innovation pipeline, which in turn demands an ethos of lab-like curiosity supported by a simple, fast and frugal experimentation method. We use the Design Thinking framework for quickly identifying needs and guide creative concepts from inception to launch, regardless of whether the idea is internally or externally focused.

Lean Optimization

Nearly a decade of partnering with Toyota accounts for our mastery of the authentic operating principles and practices of the vaunted Toyota Production System (TPS). Our approach centers on making more room for what truly matters by eliminating what doesn’t. It’s a lean and subtractive approach to kaizen — continuously improving and simplifying even your most complicated workflows.

Specialized Training

We offer a variety of training courses to build competitive capability inside your organization. While our engagements often have training built in, you may wish to offer standalone skills training in our various frameworks:
