Recognize yourself?
Recognize yourself?
- The pace of Decision-Making and Outcome Delivery is really slow.
- It’s really hard to visualize progress and results + issues are often hidden.
- Teams' backlog are not clearly connected to our strategic outcomes.
- Collaboration and accountability are low, dependencies are not well managed.
- We have no bandwidth: Firefighting is the norm. How can we find time to improve?
The Golden Thread of Value
The Golden Thread of Value
Because we combine Visual Management with a robust Operating Rhythm, you get stronger alignment and accountability, which accelerates Value Delivery.
How we work together
How we work together
We build your Adaptive Governance capability, while delivering results fast. This is achieved in 3 steps:
- BUILD: our Learn-by-Doing approach gets you started in 3 days.
We ensure you apply your learnings immediately: we co-design your Visual Management system, evolve your current meetings into a robust Operating Rhythm and start processing “real work” (not additional workload). Note: we’re flexible and can schedule the modules at the pace that suits you, e.g. 3 consecutive days can be spread over 3 weeks whenever required.
- OPERATE: we work “shoulder to shoulder” with the selected Leaders and Team Members to reach the right standard, at the right speed. We build your “muscle memory” by typically focusing on how Executives and Delivery Leads decide, unblock, and reprioritize efforts. We regularly measure the strength of your new capability AND the Business Performance improvements.
- TRANSFER: our purpose is to make you autonomous. We identify together a dedicated person in your organisation, often called “Change Navigator”. We provide the right guidance and support to boost his/her confidence and gradually make this person "own" the on-going strengthening of your new capabilities, namely: Visual Management, Operating Rhythm, fast Impediments removal…
We stay available whenever required. Remember, your success drives our success 😉

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can we see results?
Visualize Strategic priorities, Objectives and Roadmap in week 1. More effective meetings and data-driven decisions in week 2. Significant improvement in Business Metrics (Operational Excellence and Finance) by week 4–6.
What do you leave behind?
Visual Management Board (Physical and/or Virtual) tailored to your needs. Robust Operating Rhythm (streamlined meeting content and cadence). Capable, engaged and confident Leaders, Team Members and internal facilitators. Maturity Assessment and Team Pulse survey, 90-day sustainability playbook, hotline support (Slack or WhatsApp).
Does your approach work for Remote teams?
Yes! Whenever possible, we like to use a hybrid model, with some members in a physical "War Room" and others joining remotely, via a large display or video conference. We use digital whiteboards (e.g. iObeya, Miro, Mural) that replicate your physical Room. We can also connect your Virtual Obeya with Jira or other similar tools.
Will this add bureaucracy?
On the contrary! Effective Visualisation, combined with robust coordination (Operating Rhythm) enable people to process their existing work faster. We take into consideration your existing meeting cadence and content to get you started smoothly. As alignment and focused effort increase, you will witness a significant reduction in fire fighting, which will create capacity for Continuous Improvement and Coaching.
Can we start, even if we’re already mid‑quarter?
We follow a “light-touch” approach, which means that we can help “reboot” your delivery model with a small series of short sessions (2-3 hours each). Your Leaders and Teams can map their current work (backlog) to strategic priorities, cut resources allocated to zombie products/projects and boost transparency, alignment, accountability and velocity.
Do we need OKRs first?
Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) are helpful, but not required. We’ll always connect our approach with the goal setting model you’re currently using. Combining Visual Management System + Operating Rhythm will accelerate the execution of your OKRs by creating 1 single source of truth, fostering real-time collaboration (regardless of location) and focusing effort.
