Our experience guides us
Our toolklit includes seven different steps. It is designed to assist us in leading teams through solving complex business problems with the assistance of IT. We recognise that teams will receive edicts that are urgent. They will recognise business problems that need to be solved. They will spot opportunities to be captured. They will need help working with multiple partners. They will benefit from guidance in the form of roadmaps. We can start with any of these needs and evolve the way we deal with them as they mature.
We are nimble and flexible
Because we are a boutique team, we can be very flexible and can easily accomodate change. While our toolkit guides us, it does not constrain us. We expect bumps in the road and hurdles. We anticipate and encourage the discovery of new opportunities. We are outcomes-focused and we recognise that a team’s positive experience is critical to their effectiveness in solving problems. We will adjust what we do to get the right outcome for the team and we will not sacrifice their experience on the alter of process.
