Make things to change things.
&us was born out of a desire to rethink the way consultancies work, and how they work with clients.
Over the years, we’ve worked inside and alongside all sorts of organisations struggling to adapt and grow in the face of rapid change and deep uncertainty. That experience left us frustrated with traditional consulting models that were slow, inefficient and often formulaic.
Unleash the spirit of making
We’re a team of makers at heart, and we aim to set the spirit of making free in every organisation we work with.
That’s because experience has shown us that only by making valuable things together in new ways can people gain the skills, mindset and confidence to really change the way things work. And it’s only when this ground-up change begins to happen that real transformation can take root.
Above: Our making-led model creates a 'virtuous loop' that drives transformation and innovation more effectively.
Approach in practice
We put our approach into practice in three key ways – taking our clients along on the journey and instilling our methodology with their team. Through these methods, we can help you grow, discover opportunities and make transformation stick.
Rally together
We engage teams directly, bringing them together around the shared goal of making something of value to customers and the organisation.
This drives growth, while fostering individual autonomy and buy-in.
Experiment often
As we work together, teams test assumptions, uncovering challenges and opportunities that they couldn’t have foreseen without getting hands-on.
This creates a wellspring of new ideas for innovation and opportunities to explore.
Learn while making
As we make, teams develop new capabilities and ways of working, reshaping how the organisation approaches similar projects tomorrow.
This is how transformation sticks and gains momentum.
Our DNA
Underpinning our culture are a set of common attributes and behaviours that shape our work and our decisions.
