Strategy

Develop the foundational strategy for scale and get your solution and organisation ready.

  • Validate the social impact, value and sustainability of your solution
  • Assess organisational scale readiness
  • Understand your wider ecosystem
  • Develop an ambitious scale strategy
  • Test your solution and strategy in the real-world

Model

Design the scale and financial model needed to sustain your impact at scale:

  • Identify the right scale pathway
  • Identify partners and how to support them
  • Develop quality assurance mechanisms
  • Financial model for scale
  • Test and validate your scale model

Implementation

Develop the systems and processes needed to implement and pilot in new locations, and scale up sustainably:

  • Build the organisational capabilities
  • Develop and implement systems, processes, support functions and materials including resourcing
  • Pilot in new locations, testing, learning and iterating
  • Deliver sustained impact at scale

At every stage of the journey, we underpin our consultancy with lean principles – helping you test and validate your ideas and assumptions in the real world.

We use additional practices such as systems thinking, organisational development support, and collective action to help you create, manage, and deliver impact at scale effectively.

We are continuously applying this methodology across diverse sectors, geographies and cause areas, and within all of our work. We‘ve helped shape the way leading global organisations and grassroots social ventures increase their reach, transforming the lives of those in need.

Scale Pathways

We think of the pathways to scale as different ways in which you can spread your impact – by either scaling solutions and achieving widespread delivery of products, services and practices, or changing systems, culture and society. Examples of pathways include:

  • Open-sourcing: when you make your resources available for others to implement
  • Social franchising: when you package up your proven model and support others to deliver it at the same standard as the original
  • Building a movement: when you start a social movement to address a social problem

Throughout the three stages, we get a sense of what that path could look like, and prepare our partners to respond to changes in environment that might mean they need to reroute.
