Arcana
Arcana is an opinionated schema for multidisciplinary teams to align experience, technology and business language and concepts.
IO Loop
The IO (Intent to Outcomes) Loop is a 'state' based model of change that recognises that change is permanent and evolving, rather than linear.
Strategic Styles
Adapting to the situation at hand is a long-standing human trait. We believe there's a clue in this adaptability for teams playing a long game of strategic change.
Horizons
Horizons are a way to thematically differentiate long-term states. Defining multiple horizons with distinct operating assumptions helps to direct activities and manage expectations across an innovation portfolio with varying conditions and requirements.
