In the complex world we operate in, every system is connected to another. With connectivity comes challenge as well as opportunity.
Conventional problem-solving approaches do not work.
One problem solved can lead to another set of issues.
Critical voices go unheard and are not acted upon.
Communities and organisations are undersupported.
Partnership and cross-boundary communications are unclear.
Freedom to innovate and roll out new initiatives is limited.

With decades of experience as thinkers, leaders and practitioners in high-crime neighbourhoods, prisons, population health and care environments, as well as other health, care and addiction systems, we focus our services on:
We make important conversations happen on key systemic issues relating to neighbourhood safety, youth development, health inequalities and continuity of care.
We connect systems with the voice of lived experience, and with cross-sector partnerships that work beyond good intentions, bid transactions and supply chains.
We facilitate the design, development and roll-out of initiatives, programmes and operating models that demonstrably deliver sustainable benefits and outcomes.
We train, mentor and support systems leaders, CEOs, executive and non-executive teams in relation to strategy development, systems working and cross-boundary effectiveness.

We unlock better ways to make communities safe and foster opportunity, bringing systems-focused strategic insight to neighbourhood safety, health, justice and youth development.
Individuals, groups and organisations come to us for inspired thinking that transcends conventional structures and that leverages the benefits of connectivity and community.
They also turn to us for help in taking their cross-boundary working, partnerships and stakeholder participation to the next level.
And they tell us they love it when simplicity and clarity outmanoeuvre complexity in relation to the systems they work in.
