Our services

Smooth scaling for your startup

 

Missed milestones. Low employee engagement. Conflicting priorities. A lack of ownership. Low funds. Maybe you didn’t see this coming, but as you grew, your scaleup crisis did too. 

And now you’ve identified your problems, it’s time to get acquainted with your solution. 

A company Operating System (cOS). 

Our systematic framework is the scalability scaffolding your startup needs to survive–no, thrive at every stage of growth. When we’ve put yours together, it’ll underpin your services, streamline your strategy and supercharge your teamwork so you always feel supported. 

In short? Scaling won’t suck anymore. 

Want to see off your growth challenges with a well-deserved middle finger 🖕🏻? Bring us in and watch us transform your scrappy startup into a scalability powerhouse. 

Scaling sucks when you don’t have a system

TRUSTED BY TEAMS AT

How it works

Our work is as flexible as you need it to be. We work with coworking startups, International companies, WFH and hybrid teams.

 

Discovery

We comb through every problem in your business and meet with your team to gather data on the ground. This can be done online or in-person, depending on your team, structure and location.

Development

From your daily rituals and values, to your culture and team behaviours, we design and develop your unique company Operating System, so it addresses every single growth challenge you’ve got.

Implementation

We assimilate ourselves into your team over a scheduled timeline of 2, 4 or 8 week sprints, and work with you until your team is running your cOS with the same efficiency as your favourite software.

 
 
 
 

Size matters: select a cOS for your startup 

We’re not here to serve a 100 employee solution to a 5 person team. We’re here to help you develop a company Operating System that meets you where you’re at right now.

 Start

For teams with good vibes but no tangible values, behaviours, or culture to guide you. Start early. Build ahead for the team you’ll want to grow.

What you get:

  • A purpose, vision, and mission to align your team and drive collective focus.

  • Values that express who you are, what you believe in and how you show up (and who you hire)

  • Behaviours that support your actions and enable you to hold each other accountable.

  • A culture handbook that guides your team in understanding how things are done, every day.

  • Toolkits to support the embedding and maintaining of your culture as you grow.

Grow

For teams with scrappy startup habits and no clear structure. Grow with intention. Lay the essential scaffolding so it doesn’t suck when you scale.

Everything in Start, plus:

  • Roles and responsibilities that ensure ownership and accountability

  • A strategic roadmap and success metrics to supercharge your delivery and hit those targets

  • Your values and behaviours embedded across key moments that matter: hiring, onboarding, development, and progression

  • Prioritisation and decision-making processes and rituals to keep your team focused and efficient

  • Embedding action plan and monthly culture clinics

Scale

For teams experiencing the turbulence of a scaleup. When changes show up fast, zero in on Scale and develop a system that supports you.

Everything in Grow, plus:

  • Discovery diagnostic to re-align your direction and pinpoint priorities.

  • Integrated operating principles and playbooks that enhance your team’s connection, commitment and accountability.

  • Updated organisational structure to streamline your strategy and re-energise your execution.

  • Collaborative culture change to ease you and your team into the next evolution of your business

  • Fractional Chief of Staff to embed, maintain and manage your culture as you navigate change.

Build your own

Our services are like Lego blocks (but much less painful to step on with bare feet), so you can customise our stack to fit your current needs, and build the company you want, piece by piece. 

To build your own package, book a free call, and we’ll co-design a service to fit your team needs. Once agreed, we ship our products in 2, 4 or 8 week sprints, so you can start to make long-lasting culture change faster than you can say “pizza party”.

Much better than a Big 4 consulting firm 

 

You could hire a Big 4 firm and let a team of 12 consultants dream up a 159 page presentation deck of recommendations for your startup problems. OR you can hire us (for a fraction of the cost) and get:

  • In-house support. We’re on the ground, embedded in your team, actively doing culture change with you until you're ready and confident to let your team go it alone. 

  • A stellar employee experience people love coming to work for

  • Mission-critical support to improve retention and attract new talent so you can keep up that growth (in a happy, sustainable way)

  • A solid team review process with all the tools you need to engage your people and resolve problems (before they domino into HR disasters) 

  • A vision focused on getting the best brains in your business buzzing again
