The Whole Avo

We buy an avocado for its fruit & unless we are horticulturalists, we throw the pip away.  Yet the pip is the source of another avocado, a tree, even a plantation – it is natural, renewable energy.

When it comes to organizations, the pip is your culture, flesh is your brand & the skin is your communication.

Positive, aligned cultures grow & sustain powerful organizations & brands.  Look after the inside & the inside looks after the outside.

Yet in the busyness of everyday, the inside is easily overlooked. Unresolved issues fester, disagreements become schisms & alignment is lost.
 
Freedthinkers work with organizations in the public & private sectors:

      -  understanding what is through stakeholder engagements
      -  facilitating what can be, by providing a safe space for open dialogue & new thinking
      -  guiding how to get there with an agreed way forward

From the inside out, we treat the whole avocado.

Freedthinkers Values

We believe values are the foundations of culture & a part of our work is helping organisations to form, stress-test & operationalise a distinct set of values.

This distinct set breeds your promise & personality – here is ours.

Care

We care deeply about the work we do, the people we work with, the ongoing vitality of our society & planet.

Collaboration

We believe in the unmatched power of many minds working together to achieve agility & deliver a generosity of ideas.
 

Clarity

Our ultimate value is to offer our clients clarity of thought and action.

 

Meet some of our clients.

 


Operationalising Values

To be effective, values must inform strategic thinking & daily decisions.  They need to infuse HR & IT, finance & marketing.  Values give clarity to hiring & promotions, what behaviour should stop, start, or be re-enforced.

They are a safe space for dangerous conversations, a common language & understanding.

At their best they are simple:
These from Tesco, which re-invented itself from a rather shabby UK chain of supermarkets to the world’s second largest supermarket chain.

No-one tries harder for customers:

Understand customers.
-  Be first to meet their needs.
-  Act responsibly for our communities.

Treat people as we like to be treated:

-  Work as a team.
-  Trust and respect each other.
-  Listen, support and say thank    you.
-  Share knowledge and    experience.
-  ...so we can enjoy our work.
