Think of us as your trusted strategic partner—your critical friend in navigating the complexities of technology adoption and training.
We don’t take a cookie-cutter approach, ever! No pre-defined slide deck snoozefests. Rather, real-life scenarios through demonstrations and hands-on workshops on repeat so the skills stick.
Our consultancy is diving into high-level conversations where strategy isn't just discussed—it's designed.
We delve into the creation of bespoke training programs that empower your team to excel.
This is where big ideas meet actionable insights, providing a roadmap for success that aligns perfectly with your organisational goals.
You see, our training and facilitation approach focuses on the nuts and bolts of tool mastery, whereas consultancy is about crafting the blueprint that transforms these tools into engines of growth and innovation.
Our consultancy and design services are crafted to guarantee that your technology investments are implemented, optimally utilised, and fully integrated.
Without expert guidance, your technology investments may not yield the expected return, leading to wasted resources. AKA, you're just throwing money into a black hole.
Your company adopts Microsoft 365, but without the proper setup, your teams are underutilising powerful tools like Power Automate or SharePoint. This leads to continued over-reliance on manual tasks and duplicated efforts, costing time and money.
Leaders often have a skewed perception of their team’s capabilities, believing they are either more adept or more deficient than they truly are.
After being told by management that all employees are proficient with basic features of Google Workspace, the company rolls out an advanced communication productivity training program, starting with Gmail.
However, it quickly becomes apparent that a significant portion of the staff lacks fundamental skills, like only 5% using labels correctly, 1% using automation and 0% using canned responses, which undermines the advanced training's potential impact.
Leadership teams often overlook critical operational bottlenecks due to a disconnect with day-to-day operations.
Our consultancy services excel in identifying these hidden inefficiencies, which frequently go unnoticed at the upper levels of management.
During a comprehensive tech health audit conducted by our consultants, we discovered significant bottlenecks in project delivery stemming from the misalignment and overlapping use of Microsoft Planner and To-Do.
Our team engaged directly with employees, who revealed that confusing overlaps in tool features and unclear usage guidelines were major sources of inefficiency.
Our consultancy approach not only identifies such bottlenecks but also provides strategic recommendations tailored to your specific organisational context.
By refining tool usage protocols and streamlining processes, we help clear these bottlenecks, leading to enhanced project management efficiency and a noticeable boost in productivity.
This strategic intervention underscores the necessity of a consultative perspective to bring to light and resolve inefficiencies that are often masked within routine operations.
Sometimes, the issue isn't just how a tool is used; it's whether the right tool is being used at all.
During a comprehensive tech health audit for a marketing agency, it was discovered that the team was struggling with collaboration using their current project management software.
After assessing their workflow and specific needs, it became clear that switching to a more intuitive platform like Microsoft Planner, which integrates seamlessly with other Microsoft 365 apps they were already using, could enhance efficiency and user adoption.
Post-switch, the agency reported an impressive improvement in project turnaround time and a significant increase in team satisfaction.
Inefficient use of technology can prevent your organisation from achieving potential efficiencies and innovations. Basically, you're running in slow motion while your competitors zoom past.
Imagine still using manual spreadsheets when your competitors have moved to real-time collaboration through Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel Online, missing out on instant insights and the ability to quickly pivot strategies.
Poorly implemented tools can lead to frustration and disengagement among your team. Meaning, you end up with a bunch of unhappy campers instead of a powerhouse team.
After switching to Google Workspace, your staff struggles with inefficient workflows and a lack of integration with existing tools.
This leads to frustration and decreased productivity as they grapple with disjointed systems instead of seamless processes.
