Who we are

We’re a team, not a transaction

What if you only need to solve a problem once?

 

What if consulting was less time-consuming and expensive? What if consultants put people at the core of their solutions and focused on better working conditions, wellbeing, and the prevention of burnout? What if we turned our back on traditional consulting exercises that end up in multiple revisions and rework every time a company's challenges changed? What if we used our expertise to design healthy, diverse, inclusive, fair, and safe workplaces that work?

What if we create the change we want to see?

 

A clear purpose, actionable values, people over profit, and employee experiences that make the workplace better for everyone, delivered in a way that’s simple to roll out and uphold at every stage of growth.

Companies where the employee experience gets the same care and attention as the customer experience.

Enter: The Future Kind Collective.

A culture consultancy with a difference. A team as invested in the process of turning around your culture as you are.

    Namedrop? I would never. But while you’re here, I’ve led projects with Design Council UK, New Zealand Trade and Enterprise, ITV, NHS, and Pizza Hut Digital Ventures.

  • Natalie Pearce (she/her)

    STARTUP STRATEGIST
    CULTURE CREATOR
    FACILITATION AFICIONADO

    As an ex-Head of Culture, I’ve already done the work we’ll do for you. I love putting people first, from developing (excellent) end-to-end employee experiences to crafting growth-proof cultures. When not strategising with my Partner in Purpose, Alicia, I like designing winning workshops and delivering killer keynotes.

    Allow me to blow my tiny trumpet and share a few clients I’ve led projects for; Insights, Amnesty International, MasterCard, DVSA, Fidelity, HSBC, and ITV.

    Find me on LinkedIn and Instagram, where I talk about culture, leadership, well-being, the future of work and entrepreneurship.

Fun

Find time to play. Laugh louder, fill up on joy, work with the door open and let creativity in.

 

Genuine care for the people behind the business

 

“With The Future Kind Collective, there is genuine care for the people behind the business. This is because their approach is very holistic - whereas some consultancies solely focus on the project at hand, they focus on the people driving the project, the wider team involved and, of course, end users.”

Our partner

This year, we've partnered with Hatch Enterprise, an organisation committed to supporting underrepresented entrepreneurs to develop the knowledge, confidence, and skills needed to launch and grow a business.

Our bit

2.5% of our project revenue goes to community-based projects, training or internships for underrepresented groups.

Our promise

Funds will go towards workshops and events, which are often either free or affordably priced, as well as helping Hatch connect incredible entrepreneurs in a vibrant, supportive community.

You can also help Hatch out with a special one-off donation.
