What are the first steps if we want to partner with you?
We take the early stages of a partnership seriously—we don’t rush to land work, and we don’t assume we’re the right fit for every challenge. The goal is to understand whether what you need and what we do align, and whether we can be genuinely helpful.
We typically begin with a short 30-minute introductory call. It’s informal: you can ask basic questions, share what’s on your mind, and get a sense of who we are as humans. It helps reduce a bit of “stranger danger” on both sides.
If there’s a promising match, we follow up with a 90-minute whiteboarding session with key stakeholders. This is where we dig into desired outcomes, past attempts, current constraints, and places where you feel stuck. You also get to experience what it’s like to be facilitated by us—how we think, how we listen, and how we help teams make sense of complexity.
From that session, we draft the first version of a scope. We review it together, refine it, and prioritize what matters most. If it still feels right to everyone involved, we move forward from there.
