What participants say
"Participating in the programme really helped us focus on what we wanted to achieve. The design thinking workshop and ‘how might we?’ theories helped us drill down into where the real problems and bottlenecks were. I was out of my depth with technology, but the programme gave me the confidence to harness it and bring in experts. Stepping outside my comfort zone and meeting innovative people - it’s been fantastic. If there were another programme running, I’d take part myself and highly recommend it to others."
Karen Wallce
CEO at Right Way Union
"It’s given me, personally, huge confidence in taking an idea that I’ve had for a while and developing it, running with it and learning from it. It's been a great networking opportunity as well - I’ve met some fantastic people through the programme, which is great for my future development. A real highlight for me has been the range of people and experts brought in to talk to us, share information, and give us coaching. It's been a great learning experience, and I would definitely recommend a programme like this to others in the network."
Paul Godsmark
Consultant Partner and
Head of Advisory Services at Auxillias
"On the back of the programme, I introduced a new role, the Customer First Manager, to focus on customer insights, which has become a key part of our organisation. A turning point for me was the Blue Ocean Strategy session; it really helped me understand what adds value from a customer’s perspective. It’s been brilliant for both organisational impact and personal development with a great mix of academic and industry insight and stimulating in so many ways."
