“It’s my strong view that empowering and motivating people to collaborate successfully around a meaningful and common purpose is any organisation’s most important challenge.

Meeting this challenge is Pinfold’s raison d’être.”

Developing teams with a positive, open approach that embraces change and the opportunities it brings

Established in 2005, we are a small consultancy with the skills and experience to help you implement complex, challenging programmes of change. We do this by building engagement and a shared sense of purpose through a highly collaborative, people-focused way of working.

We’ve worked with clients ranging from local authorities to big national and international organisations. Typically, clients look to us for help with shaping, mobilising and delivering the different ways of working and thinking that are needed if a new business strategy is to succeed.

We start with gaining a clear understanding of the vision and strategy. Once we have this, our core strengths come to the fore – our ability to identify the key changes to operational practice that are required and then develop a structured programme of activity to deliver changes, engaging positively with your teams.

We immerse ourselves in an organisation’s culture and capabilities, processes and procedures. We identify key goals and objectives and then turn the essence of the thinking into clear, simple, compelling recommendations and routes. We then work with leaders and teams, supporting and coaching them to mobilise programmes and establish the delivery and change cadence.

We bring rich resources, tools and techniques to accelerate progress and seek to position change as a powerful development opportunity to be embraced rather than resisted.
