A vision for working respectfully through our biggest challenges
Our vision is to lead the strategy consultancy industry in Australia through a change towards truly being values centred. This means being more diverse and inclusive in our approaches. It means embracing the adaptive complex systems in which we operate through openness and humility. It means being bold and tackling the big rocks which are often left unaddressed. It means communicating in ways which people today best interact with ideas and concepts. Lastly, and maybe most importantly, it means respecting and learning from our long Aboriginal history to walk together into our collective future.
Our name and logo
A single thread of grass will break under pressure. Grass which has been woven with other threads suddenly becomes incredibly robust. It is this power that made weaving one of the oldest human creations. Indigenous tribes on every continent of the world used weaving to design nets, containers, baskets and bags that were fit for purpose, flexible and adaptable.
