Our impact in action

Our work with leaders and teams delivers measurable business results. From faster decision-making to stronger collaboration and improved engagement, we help organisations unlock their full potential. Here are just a few examples of the impact we create.

 

Case Study 1 – Global FMCG Leadership Teams

The Challenge: Leadership teams were under pressure to deliver ambitious growth while navigating restructuring and complexity. Decision-making was slow, engagement scores were falling, and leaders struggled to align.

Our Approach: We designed a leadership transformation journey, combining real-time executive coaching, leadership charters, and practical tools to embed new ways of working.

The Result: Decision-making became faster and more strategic, inefficiencies were reduced, and engagement and retention improved. Leaders emerged more agile, decisive, and equipped to drive sustainable performance.


Case Study 2 – European Functional Leadership Team

The Challenge: A regional leadership group needed to shift culture and increase influence across a wider organisation. Siloed ways of working and inconsistent communication slowed progress on critical initiatives.

Our Approach: We created a high-impact engagement programme, including real-time coaching, a scalable playbook for behaviours, and storytelling strategies to strengthen stakeholder buy-in.

The Result: Leaders gained visibility and influence, decisions moved faster, and priorities advanced with less friction. The function became recognised as a cohesive and strategic business partner.


Case Study 3 – Pan-European Support Function Team

The Challenge: A support team was unclear on purpose, roles, and behaviours. Without alignment, energy and confidence were low, and the team struggled to influence effectively across the business.

Our Approach: We co-created a team charter, facilitated behaviour shifts around trust and confidence, and introduced new cadences and ownership models to strengthen accountability.

The Result: The team became energised, connected, and empowered. With greater clarity and collaboration, they increased their influence and impact across the organisation.
