How we engage
Introduction and Demonstration meeting
During a one hour demonstration we present the AXYZlogic and framing
technique, as well as the PACTS visualization
toolset. Our consultants use this time to inquire about your particular
requirements and determine if the method could assist you in solving
some problem or accelerate a current initiative. This prepares us for
the pre-consulting workshop.
Pre-consulting workshop
A pre-consulting workshop is an interactive two hour meeting with a
small group of selected team members from your organization. Before this
meeting we do some research to determine a potential way of addressing
the ideas discussed during the introduction meeting.
We usually utilize the pre-consulting workshop to build a quick solution
with the participants to the challenge that was identified during the
introduction meeting.
Even if you do not sign us up for any further consulting, facilitation
or training afterwards, you still gain from the interaction as you have
not only build a new solution, but we also leave you with an
PACTS canvas where the solution was developed.
Formal proposal and implementation of customized solution or
proof of concept
Once you decide to using the PACTS method and
toolset, we work closely with you to scope and develop a customised
approach that will suit your budget, time and people resources.
The proposal process will determine the purpose of the initiative,
expected outcomes with clear deliverables and timelines as well as
agreement on the approach. The anticipated benefits will be clarified to
ensure a return on investment.
Post-implementation services
PACTS consultants provide support for your
initiative to ensure it maintains momentum. We therefore schedule three
post-implementation meetings where we discuss the impact of the
initiative and also provide coaching using our Nine Strategic
Conversations. During these meetings we answer any of your questions and
assist in post-implementation support requirements.
Client feedback is very important to us, and these meetings are ideal for such interaction to enable us to continue to improve our offering and share knowledge with our Community of Best Practice.
Our Approach
All business leaders know there is a gap between their organisation’s
ability to develop a strategy and their ability to execute it.
Design thinking has emerged as the premier organisational path
not only for breakthrough innovation but, surprisingly, to achieve
high-performance collaboration, as well.
