Why We're Different

If your project impacts people, you’ve come to the right place!

 

We integrate change management, collaboration, and visual communication approaches into everything we do. Why?

 

Because it is a better way to engage, communicate,
be inclusive, and get results.

Change Management.jpg

Change Management

We help people and organizations navigate change by ensuring they have the information, knowledge, tools, abilities, and reinforcements to be successful. 

Why it works.  Projects with strong change management are 6x more likely to be successful in terms of achieving objectives as well as being on time and on budget. Don't believe me, ask Prosci.

Collaboration

We value collaboration. Breaking down silos taps into knowledge and expertise across an organization and is a great way to think outside the box, problem solve, improve decision quality, engage employees, identify emerging talent, and deliver a successful project. 

​

Why it works. ​Collaboration isn't just about projects; it's about people. When minds from different levels, roles, and departments come together – we amplify our ability to brainstorm, generate ideas, and innovate. According to a BCG study, companies that actively foster collaboration and diversity in their teams report 19% higher innovation revenues. Breaking down silos promotes information flow and organic problem solving across departments. When faced with challenges, having teams of diverse experts ensures well-rounded analysis and problem-solving that incorporates insights from different angles and mitigates potential blind spots. Cross-functional collaboration is one of the key contributors to diversity of thought which reduces redundancy, streamlines processes, enhances problem solving, and improves decision making. McKinsey suggests that companies with more diverse management teams are 33% more likely to outperform their peers in terms of profitability. The Project Management Institute identifies cross-functional collaboration as a critical component of agile projects, practices, and organizations. Their studies show that organizations with high agility and cross-functional collaboration were 56% more likely to complete projects on time, within budget, and deliver expected results as compared to their low / no agility peers. The study found that high agility (& cross-functional collaboration) = better results in terms of ROI, attraction / retention of talent, product / service quality, customer experience, and more. Working across functions fosters a sense of unity, breaking down departmental barriers and creating a more engaged, motivated workforce. It provides unique opportunities for contribution, belonging, and inclusivity across the organization. Gallup research supports that highly engaged teams show 21% greater profitability. If you ask us, it’s a win-win.

Visual Storytelling.jpg

Visual Communication

Custom recordings and illustrations allow us to tell a story in a visual form. Unlike the linear progression of a slide deck or *gulp, even worse* pages on end of straight narrative or text, an integrated visual connects the dots and shows how a set of ideas fits in with the big picture. This ultimately helps people understand and make connections between complex, interconnected issues, and supports alignment since everyone can visually see they are being heard. It creates momentum to overcome challenges and visualize a way forward.

​

Why it works. ​​The brain processes and remembers visual information way better than just text. Not only do visuals get 94% more views than text-based information, but studies show that digital signage has an information recall rate of 83% which is almost double the rate for traditional text-based alternatives.​Visuals and metaphors also boost retention through tapping into our emotional brain, and can connect with people in a personal and authentic way – engaging hearts as well as minds.

The world is moving so fast these days that the person who says it can't be done is generally interrupted by someone doing it.
