Our Approach

We tailor services to individual client needs and generally approach our engagements based on these principles:

Principle 1  

Every project must be child-centered and outcome driven.

Principle 2

High quality work does not always require recreating the wheel.  Research and information gathering establishes a starting point that is, by design, ahead of the curve.

Principle 3

If nothing changes, nothing changes. Change is hard, but with careful strategic planning, calculated and bold action, and a degree of flexibility, nagging problems can be solved, requirements can be eased, and transformational change can be realized.

Principle 4

Good conversations lead to a deep understanding of what works well and where the key challenges and pain points exist. Asking good questions is essential to creating alignment between goals, resource allocation and intended outcomes/deliverables.

Principle 5

Continual feedback cycles and transparent stakeholder collaboration are essential to sustainable outcomes.
