People & Leadership

Through workshops, coaching and professional development opportunities, we foster a data culture shift within organisations, empowering individuals to drive meaningful impact through data driven decision making.

Systems

Develop and improve the key data policies and procedures, the IT systems and the data strategy and roadmpa that your organisation needs to make the most of data for continuous improvement, impact and funding.

Data tools

We guide teams in developing robust Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning frameworks, while also creating data warehouses and dashboards to measure impact and improve performance - combined with the culture change these become powerful tools.

Use of data

All the systems, skills and processes are useless unless they are put in practice to advance the mission of the organisation. By working with your teams, we align the 'back end' of data with the 'front end' of people actually using it to make better decisions.

How it works

You recruit a diverse range of staff (senior, junior, management, frontline) to become 'data champions' for the organisation (10-15 people) who go on a 12 month development journey together to advance data in the organisation.

We provide the program structure, templates, tools and training to empower them to mobilise others in the organisation around data.

We also develop the metrics frameworks, back-end data pipelines and data dashboards to bring data to useful and inspiring formats.

Testimonial

“Making staff more efficient is part of the mission because it reduces overwork but also expands the service frontier by allowing more clients to be supported for the same budget. The program improves outcomes and services by highlighting what works best for what specific groups of people in what contexts - and it allows teams to continuously test new ideas to see what works best.”
