The-Organization cultivates teams and businesses able to operate in a disrupted, decentralised and complex world. We envision better futures, implement the technologies and develop the core capabilities of collaboration and systems thinking required to get there.
We work with companies in any sector to develop their capacity to operate in environments of continuous change.
We help organizations see the big picture. Our unique process simplifies complex fields of practice into practical knowledge maps. Once we’ve got a map, we can create diagnostics tools, governance systems, taxonomies and more.
These maps provide a stable foundation for new forms of balanced distributed working and problem solving. They encourage inclusion and diversity in perspectives while uncovering blind spots and bias.

The key to better collaborative, cutting-edge, innovation is the creation of environments outside of any existing hierarchy. These spaces don’t happen by accident.
We facilitate productive human-to-human connections, online and offline. Bringing people together, pulling them out of their conventions, and helping them put together something new, in a way they may never have considered in their normal day-to-day.
We work with teams to foster psychological safety. Building new culture from the bottom up. The process is not linear, but it delivers profound changes far faster than you expect.

By analysing the interactions in just 5 meetings, we will be able to tell you exactly what isn’t working and how to fix it. And the way we’ll do this is to identify the points where intervention will be most valuable and the best place to invest your time to get the most powerful results.

Our work is both social and technical. We provide direct support to architect and implement technologies and guide the emergence of multi-disciplinary teams. Decentralised, layered technological stacks empower collaboration and engagement far beyond the software team.
Technology will not save us, but we have not option but to use it. To survive in the world (or economy) of tomorrow, organizations of all forms must evolve to thrive in uncertainty, establishing new ways of problem solving, fostering deep collaboration, and learning to be both more human and more automated.
The path to a better future is untrodden. To find it, we must fundamentally change how we solve problems, how we perceive progress and how we relate to each other.
We work in close partnership with organizations to help them find their own future. We engineer socio-technical systems, combinations of culture and technology, cultivating more diverse, less centralised models of operation that can adopt ways of working more compatible with tomorrow.
See the big picture without getting lost in the complexity. The biggest challenge with any transformation project is being able to sense all the moving, interconnected parts. We create whole systems frameworks that enable a new forms of measurement and diagnostics. (Have a look at SystemicDataEthics.org for an example)
Co-Create the (online and offline) collaborative decision making environments that allow teams to explore complex challenges. We provide expert facilitation to accelerate adoption of the data-savvy, tech supported, human centric ways of working. We work on ongoing projects with teams, or host larger, one off events for larger groups.
Build engagement and foster a high performance culture by training your team in the core skills that really matter. We use contemporary psychological and management research to develop short focussed training modules that address the real, underlying elements of a culture of deep engagement. If necessary, we assist with the design and implementation of technology solutions - but people come first.
Our work includes cutting edge technology practices including agile software development, data-analysis, zero-code infrastructures and containerisation. It also incorporates insights from dynamic organizational design, including “Teal”, “Holacracy”, “Sociocracy” and more. Our communication, collaboration and emotional intelligence work integrates ideas from human centred psychology, nonviolent communication and many other fields.
Insight from all these areas is combined in a holistic benchmarking process that makes it possible to navigate the journey to a whole new way of working.
