The Tremendous 10 link roundup, #273
After a bit of a T10 hiatus, we’re back with an entirely new website. This iteration focuses specifically on how we support a variety of transformation and change programs for corporations, non-profits, startups, and other organizations. These projects range from strategy work and complete reorgs to new product launches, innovation opportunities, future state visioning, and more. It also clarifies how we fit into organizational change initiatives…
We don’t DO the long-term transformation strategy work—that’s for our expert consultancy partners.
What we do is to help MAKE those transformation strategies work using visual communications.
We do this in collaboration with business leaders and consultancies, using our visual thinking expertise to create strategic change comms that Align, Communicate, and Activate your organization to embrace the change.
Unfortunately the communication aspect of setting your organization up to understand and execute change—with a focus on people—is nearly always overshadowed by the more tactical and financial planning aspects—focused on the leaders’ transformation goals. Multiple studies prove this. Now, on to the links.
