Consulting Approach
Approach
Our consulting approach distinguishes itself from traditional consulting models in several crucial ways
Active Diagnostics
Instead of relying on surveys or snapshot data only, we engage in individual conversations based on humble inquiry and here-and-now techniques. This helps your people think critically about their current situation, their interactions, and their relation to the organization itself, setting the stage for impactful change.
Addressing Resistance
In the journey of transformation, resistance often emerges as a roadblock. Far from sidestepping resistance, we see it as an opportunity for deeper learning and growth. We work on anticipating it and helping the organization navigate it.
Collective Insight Formation
This phase generates shared understanding and alignment. Instead of providing ready-made solutions, at LLI, we believe that the people within the organization hold the key to its transformation. We engage in a collective discussion about the challenges and the ways to overcome them to ensure that everyone is on the same page and contributes to the change process.
Long-term Capacity Building
The end-goal of our consulting approach is not just providing a fixed set of solutions but building the organization's internal capacity to sustain the gains made during our engagement. Our process of Guided Adaptation includes providing a roadmap, coaching individuals and teams, and empowering them to carry the change forward sustainably.
Case Studies
Government: Solving problems before they arise
A metropolitan city in the US needed to discover problems before they arose and have a way of addressing them proactively. We designed a data system that identified “problem sites” before they become sites of crisis. We also brought together all the city and community resources and created capacity for communication to organize a response proactively.
Education: Attracting the People You Want
A new business school in the developing world, with a great deal of resources and high aspirations, could not attract high quality faculty. Our team diagnosed the problem as an adaptive challenge, having to do with clarifying the mission, hiring enough staff, and creating the right public materials. We worked on all these aspects to transform the organization within a very short time.
Start Up: Surviving the COVID-19 Crisis
A biotech company was on the verge of disbanding because their FDA certification was on hold during the pandemic. Management was assuming that the investors were not going to give them more time. We remapped their stakeholders, created trust with investors, and devised a strategic plan for the company to work on a second product during the lockdown. By facing reality and reaching out to different kinds of stakeholders, they were able to avert total shutdown.
