Introduction to The TRANSFORMATION Project

The business had not previously accessed business support and began working with The TRANSFORMATION Project after it was contacted directly by the project. Having already decided that they wanted to pursue mentoring support, they were attracted by the offer of 'someone from outside the company who would be willing to help and advise us, sit with us and go through our pains, and ask if we have thought of particular things'.

Activity within the project

The owner had undertaken The Receptivity for Change Toolset, which covered a lot of material, all of which was relevant – and, in particular, the graphical output was regarded as highly useful in terms of showing where the company was changing and growing, and where potential weaknesses and challenges lay.

The owner has followed the four stage process, which includes sufficient flexibility to focus on the most relevant parts of the process for the company.

Impacts


Summing up the impact

'It's nice to look back and take 5 minutes, to see where you are and where you want to be, instead of everything being chaotic. It's nice to have that backseat approach, see what's going on: what is the thing that's taking up all my time or causing problems, and how can I fix it? So, it's helped me in both my business and personal life to have more time through structure.'
