Imagine this taking hold up and down your organisation – every organisational scope, every scale:

Engage

Leaders of all kinds – recognised or growing into leadership – engaging on the right challenges

Invite

The strategy process energised and integrated through participation

Celebrate

Innovations emerging from the people closest to the need and the opportunity

A different kind of framework – an engagement model

At every scope and scale, developing strategy together, pursuing strategy together, outcomes before solutions, working backwards ("right to left") from key moments of impact and learning.

Not a change management model – we’re not in the business of imposition. Not a delivery framework – too disconnected from strategy. Instead, the development and pursuit of strategy in one, integrated process.

“Intensely practical with solid theoretical foundations”

“Expertly and confidently helps you learn how to get from strategy to execution and back again”

“You inspired people and got them talking – couldn’t have asked for more”

“Combines concepts I previously found challenging in a way that not only makes sense but is highly useful”

“I left motivated and confident enough to try these exercises the next day”

“Very practical, highly participative – learning by doing. I can see so many opportunities to use the approach and tools in my work”

About us

We are pioneers in outcome-oriented change and continuous transformation, expert practitioners working at the exciting intersection of strategy, organisation development, and delivery.

What makes us different:

  • Our deep commitment to outcomes: not just outcomes first, but outcomes authentically agreed and kept at the forefront throughout – maximising their meaning, their significance, and their power to inspire collaboration, innovation, and renewal
  • Our open framework: Having more in common with dialogic organisation development, Lean Startup, and OKR than it does with traditional change management, Agendashift is in the vanguard of a new category, the engagement model. Agendashift gives leaders at every level new ways to approach their adaptive challenges, to keep people engaged people in that process, and to keep the organisation whole as it transforms.
  • Our mission: the wholehearted and deliberately adaptive organisation. Not someone else’s framework to be imposed out of context, but something to pursue – a holistic integration of strategy, delivery, and organisation development that works at each scale and between scales, embedding engagement, participation, and purpose
