Activating strategy and shaping the conditions for high performance
-
What we do and when it matters
Our work focuses on how leaders set direction – and how that direction is then articulated and activated across their team and organisation.
Our support is most valued at key moments of strategic importance or transition:
-
When direction needs to be set, or reset – clarifying strategy, priorities or organisational focus
-
When strategy needs to be activated – translating intent into aligned action across teams, functions or regions
-
When communication really matters - high stakes moments where clarity, narrative and leadership presence are critical
-
When relationships matter most – managing challenges within your team or influencing key stakeholders to enable understanding, alignment and action.
-

How we do it
We work hand-in-hand with senior leaders and leadership teams, drawing from these components, and combining the roles of thought partnership, consultant, coach and strategic facilitator.
- Strategy & Direction
- Strategy Articulation & Activation
- Annual Planning & Goal Setting

Developing thriving, high performing teams
-
What we do
Our work focuses on how teams function in practice: how they make decisions, challenge each other, align around priorities, and build and sustain their culture. We help teams establish clear, consistent ways of working that drive performance in fast-moving environments. Alongside this, we work with leaders to develop teams that people are genuinely proud to be part of – where individuals are stretched and supported, in environments that feel energising and distinctive.
100th Monkey’s support is most valued at key moments of change or opportunity:
-
When something new is happening – a new leader, a shift in direction, a new ask or expectation of team members
-
At times of challenge - a strategic problem to solve, a collective performance or capability gap
-
In moments of connection - making the most of face-to-face time together in a hybrid world
-
-
How we do it
We work with teams and leaders to diagnose what they are seeking to solve, and design and deliver tailored solutions through team development programmes, offsites and workshops. These typically combine elements including:
- Team Diagnostics & Alignment
- Thriving, High Performing Teams Diagnostic
- Team Chartering
- Stakeholder Mapping & Influence
- Ways of Working & Execution
- Strategic Problem Solving Workshops
- Optimising Governance & Cadence
- Agility in Action
