            The work you’ve done with us, as we go through the process of reorganising ourselves, has been really good. What I've particularly appreciated is the way you've gently challenged some of our assumptions and behaviours.

            Nick was a God-send. I can't imagine anyone who would answer our questions more clearly and promptly, or who would guide our meetings with more expertise as well as having a steady hand on the tiller when the emotional waters occasionally got turbulent during meetings!

            Working through this coursework as a team allowed for our organization to build a foundation for working together that helped us to make decisions more efficiently and gave power to individual role holders to move work forward. Our team is working more efficiently together and we're getting more done.

            Nick's approach really helped us take one step at a time to unpick the issues and build the bones of a workable solution. He found space in the workshops for all voices and bought his out organizational insights to us to help us find workable ways forward.

            The course has been designed really thoughtfully and systematically. Nick introduces a few key practices every month. These practices are relevant for all organisations wanting to raise their game.

            This course offered an exceptional opportunity to witness the foundations of a significant organisational transformation. It provided me with a robust understanding of Holacracy and Self-Management principles. The well-structured, engaging videos, paired with Nick's enthusiasm and expertise, created an educational experience that perfectly balanced sensitivity and productivity.

            The coaching sessions were very inspiring and opened up a whole new field for me, one that I plan to explore further on my own and integrate into my daily work. I truly hope that the new methods will take root in our company

            Nick and his team have a lot of experience, they are understanding and quickly identify the areas where I need help. They showed me new ways to structure roles, optimize the work process and make quick decisions, which will certainly help me in my work.

            Our CEO decided to step down last Summer and rather than recruit a replacement, the team decided to look at alternative ways of working. Nick's support and coaching helped us maintain focus and as a result the CEO officially stepped down at the start of April. His guidance throughout the process has been invaluable as he's helped us find a way of working that is right for us as a team.

            The training has brought the team closer together, helping us to view the work we do through a shared lense. There is more clarity around roles, decisions are being made more efficiently and everything just feels a bit more organised and alighned!

            I would highly recommend the course to any Senior Management Team, or any team, that simply wants to work better and get more done and be happier in the process.

            Working with Evolving Organisation helped me get clarity on the issues underlying our problems, really focusing on defining the tensions and then working on solutions to ease them. I'm really grateful for the sustained commitment and support I've received from Nick over a number of years. This has helped me not just with my immediate challenges, but in other parts of my life as well.

            The Cost of Doing Nothing

            In a fast-changing world, it's adapt or get left behind and die.

            If your teams doesn't have clarity, it can't make decisions fast and pivot, so it gets stuck.

            If your team can't have effective meetings, you will waste a lot of time & kill motivation.

            If your team members don't feel safe enough to take risks then your team can't innovate and adapt.

            not having effective meetings will waste time

            High-Performance in the digital age of complexity & instability doesn't look like it used to - imagine your team being:

            More Effective

            More Effective Meetings Increased Clarity

            Fast-changing & complex

            environments require increased

            clarity, transparency & accountability, along with protocols for how to

            engage with each other.

            More Empowered

            Build More Empowered Teams

            Team members need autonomy and feel greater meaning, purpose & fulfilment in their work because they are empowered to contribute

            their talents and creativity.

            Evolving

            resilient & innovative teams

            Teams need to become more resilient & innovative and so more able to adapt & evolve

            in response to the complexity & instability of the digital age- just like a living system.
