Our Ways of Working
We are committed to exceptional quality in our relationships and business dealings with clients, suppliers, associates and all those who have occasion to interact with us. Here are six aspects of our approach that are particularly valued by clients:
1. A powerful framework for sense-making
With many of our clients, we use Managed Change™* – a simple-to-understand, robust framework for sense-making and action, putting the individual centre-stage in organisational change efforts. * Irving Allan is currently the only organisation in the UK licensed to facilitate the Managed Change™ workshops
2. Building change capability at all levels
Helping people to see their place in the process lies at the heart of what we do. Creating new common ground and fuller engagement helps achieve desired short-term benefits… and makes a lasting positive difference to your culture.
3. Handing over the tools that count
We have no interest in making you reliant on us. We can train your people to use different approaches that will continue to serve your organisation; these include Managed Change™ and Storycatching.
4. A new sense of being valued
The inclusivity of our approach often has profound impacts. Individuals feel heard, and that their voices matter. At the same time, a new rich vein of wisdom is revealed – and can be harnessed to help achieve desired outcomes.
5. Surfacing hidden connections
We love to make the invisible visible. When you create a space for the unseen to be noticed, and the unsaid to be voiced, you bring a new way of being to your organisation – a more helpful edge to group dynamics - and a greater confidence in facing the unknown.
6. A more intimate partnership
At Irving Allan we really are ‘there’ for our clients. For all our tools and technologies, every solution is bespoke – rooted in a deep understanding of your context. We never stop noticing, fine-tuning, and caring. Why? Because it works. And because that’s how we are.
Please note, we make a proportion of our work available to charities or others who need our services and are financially constrained. Contact Us to learn more.
